Laid up sideways

After two days on the road. Only DAM still has any energy. Anyone surprised?

David loves DC

Because he can sit in the bed and look at himself in the mirror at the same time!

Visiting RE Lee's grave

We should have bought a cargo van!

Hardly seems like it was over a week ago

that we had to say goodbye to Sarah and Brian.  We loved their visit!

Brotherly Love

We took some cute photos of the boys today.  John was in a good mood for awhile, but then he started looking a bit frightened.  We think it's because he's a bit scared of his rambunctious, but well-meaning, big brother.  He anticipated the final shot of the day (see below).  Afterwards, photos ended and crying ensued.

Uncle Daniel = Clutch

Ned and Mary Beth got to enjoy a date night last nid were even able to take their time recovering this morning, all thanks to Uncle Daniel and his incredible nephew management skills.

Smiling at Aunt Kay

DAM will be so excited

When he wakes up and sees Uncle Daniel!

Waiting on shots

They weren't as bad as he feared!

Summertime haircut!

MB wanted it shorter, but DAM's still terribly frightened of the clippers. This is as close a cut as he could get with his wiggly head and the required sharp scissors.

Family dinner

Jambalaya, cornbread, and fruit salad.

I missed the boys today!

Had to be in Jackson for doctor's appointments today, and though they were in good hands with Aunt Sarah and Uncle Brian, I missed my boys!

No foolin' this one

Fun at the table

Look! I can put my bib straps in my ear!

These guys are all right...

But I love my Mama best!

Surprise!

It's Aunt Sarah and Uncle Brian!

Boys on the ranger...

How long before they start arguing about who gets to drive?

Clean and cute!

Afternoon nap in Pontotoc

Cooking up a storm!

Mother's Day at Taylor

Our Mother's Day tradition is dinner at Taylor Catfish, where we also hosted our rehearsal dinner. 

Patrick joined us again this year! 

Kisses for Mama 

John tended the cash register with Debbie while the rest of his family took a photo (below).

John says, "Happy Mother's Day!"

Photos from our annual Mother's Day trip to Taylor will follow tomorrow. We love you, grandmothers!

Bubbles!!!

After the Big Day

Big day in Pontotoc

Relaxed travelers

Clean now, after a messy morning

Happy Monday!

Learning how to fold laundry

Mama says it's important for boys to know how to do things like this.

History repeats itself

Super Mom!

Ned woke up sick this morning, so Mary Beth had solo duty for the second day in a row (Aunt Angie couldn't make it on Friday). This afternoon, once Ned had recovered, this is the quiet, serene scene he found in the living room. It was definitely NOT this peaceful through most of the day, as Mary Beth took both boys downtown for the Vicksburg Farmers' Market, and went out later with John to the Kroger for chicken soup ingredients while David pretended to nap. Don't know how she does it, but sure glad she does!

Happy afternoon

Yep, I'm cute...

Wide awake at bedtime!

Happy Month-day!
