Big Helper

We watched Gavin and Kyson one day and Braxton was such a big helper for me feeding Kyson, while I got lunch ready.

Can I keep it?

I found a baby bird that had fallen out of its nest and couldn't fly, and brought it in for Braxton to see, the first thing he asked was, Can I keep it? He really wants a pet right now.

Update

I thought I would finally update some of things we have been up to for the past couple of weeks.



Mother's Day
I wanted a picture with my two handsome boys. They gave me a wonderful Mother's Day. We also had fun visiting with family and celebrating both of our wonderful mothers as well.







Friends Old and New
A few weeks ago one our friends Helaman came into town to visit. We haven't seen him for several years so it was fun catch up.

Tullip Festival

A few weeks ago we were able to make it to see the tullips. As usual they were gorgeous.

Preschool Field Trip

I finally made it to Braxton's last field trip, to the zoo. He had so much fun with the other kids and looking at his favorite animals.

We Will Miss Grammy!

Our sweet and sassy Grammy passed away this last week, We will miss her, but know she is with her loved ones who have passed on ahead.

Unusual Easter!

Braxton had a fun Easter, but it was a crazy weekend. The weekend of Easter we found out I would be able to go in for surgery at very short notice so we took it. I had Laparoscopic and Hysterscopic surgery to remove some scar tissue, so that being said we didn't get many pictures taken for Easter. Luckily Doug did get some video. Braxton had some fun Easter hunts; at preschool, at Aunt Brynn's and of course the annual Smith Easter picnic. The Easter bunny was very good to him and brought him some goodies, toys and clothes. Doug was an especially awesome husband during this time and I want to thank him, I also want to thank all those who helped with food, thoughts and prayers. We have such awesome families and friends!

Braxton wanted a picture of my Owies, but we'll spare you.

Helping Grandma and Papa

This was a few weeks ago, Anyone who knows my parents know that they love their yard and it is beautiful! Every year they get their loads of compost for the garden and yard. Here are the grandsons helping Papa shovel it out of the truck.


Gavin was so excited to help.
