Wilson's Big Boy Hair Cut!!

Ok, so I have issues. Wilson has had only one haircut and it was getting a little out of control. Poor little buddy was burning up with all his hair!! But as his mommy, I have to admit I don't like seeing my baby become my toddler (sad sigh). We went to Sports Clips and thankfully the lady had a little 17 month old boy so she understood my craziness as I said "that's probably good" with each snip! Ryan knows me too well- he kept texting "CUT IT SHORT." It looks really cute.
(I think he knew it was a big change for mommy, he hugged my neck as I rocked him asleep tonight; my cup runneth over!)

I think he looks more like Ry with his new do! What do you think?

BEFORE: P.S. He sat there like a big boy and was PERFECT!
The sucker helped! LOOK AT HIS PINKY! HAHA.
Love his cheeks.
AFTER: Eating dinner with his new do.
I thought this pic was funny- he fed himself yogurt by the way; it was pretty much everywhere; including all over Lillie!!

Mommy/Son Date

Liz and I took the boys to the Discovery Center! I am not sure who loved it more- me or Wilson. The first time we took him he couldn't walk so today was so much fun! Here are some pics- ENJOY!

The water table was his FAVE- we were soaked.


Thanks for smiling Carter- it's so hard to get a pic of all 3!

The Small Moments- TRUSTING!

I have blogged about this before but wanted to share something! So many of you know we moved to M'boro in January, and it has been a little tough for me but lately the Lord is really helping me love and appreciate the small things here. I may not like living in an apartment, going back to work (part time), being away from my family, and did I mention the apartment? But I LOVE spending time with my nephews, going to the pool with Wilson (one of the two perks of the apt!), watching my in-laws build their dream home, and spending time with sister in laws!! I know God has us here for a reason and recently God showed us his Grace and Ryan got an opprotunity to fly part time. I love that he is able to do what he loves!

So I hope Ryan reads this and stops calling me negative Nancy!
God is teaching me to fully trust him when we make life decisions. HE loves us more than anyone and HE will take care of us in the midst of anything!! We ARE HIS children!!

I am thankful HE is still teaching/molding me!

Happy Father's Day!

If I blogged about how amazing my father is you would be reading all night!! So here are the highlights:
*He taught me to love Christ!
*His devotion/consistency to the Lord makes me smile
*He always taught me to tithe
*He makes the best Latte's!
*His passion for Riverside Mission is contagious
*He is in love with UT football- some of my favorite childhood memories
*Sometimes he will wear the same shirt 3 days in a row- love that
*He supports me/my family 110%!!

These are just a few things but the best thing about my dad is that he is just like his dad, my papaw Loveday- He continues to carry on the Godly/Family oriented Loveday Legacy! I love him more than he will ever know!

The Food Genie

Everyday whether I am driving home from work or spending the day with my little man at around 4:30 I wish I could blink my eyes or tap my foot and someone would cook us dinner. I wouldn't mind cleaning the dishes afterwards. My mother in law lives REAL close and she will bless us with an amazing meal often but in two months she will be moving 45 minutes away. So maybe someone will invent the Food Genie before this occurs.

Any other mom's feel this way?

Unexpected Blessing

I came home from work last night feeling exhausted as I am getting over my 60th cold for the year (a little exaggeration). I walked in to kisses from my son and my wonderful hubby cleaning out Wilson's closet (thanks honey). We of course needed groceries but Ryan suggested we go feed the duckies before the dreaded Walley trip. It was hot but thought it would be fun to see Wilson throwing the bread at the ducks.

As I watched Wilson on Ryan's shoulders throwing bread I was overwhelmed, God quietly reminded me to soak up this moment. And I did, I know when Wilson goes to school, graduates High School, gets married, has his own family I will never forget seeing him follow his daddy around the river as we fed the duckies. It was a special moment for me! I love when the Lord allows me to see HIM through these memories. This is an early HAPPY FATHER'S DAY to Ryan, it makes me smile to see Wilson imitate everything he does!! Ryan- you are an amazing Father- thank you.

Mind Boggling

It blows my mind to think that God loves my child even more than I do!! Feeling overwhelmed with Christ's love today!

Meet Wilson

LOVE HIS SMILE!

FAMILY PIC!

Ok, Ok- I know most of you know little Wilson but because I am that crazy momma who cant stop blogging, talking, and facebooking about my little joy I just wanted to share a few pictures to give you a glimpse of his personality, especially for our friends and family who dont get the opprotunity to see him often. I will tell you this: He LOVES to laugh, he gives hugs/kisses freely, if he could LIVE outside he would, he just started running- EVERYWHERE, starting to enjoy the pool- swimming lessons start in July, his face lights up when daddy comes home, likes to pull Lillie's ears (she hates it), snorts when he laughs really hard, very ticklish (especially under arms and neck), loves to play in the pantry, has this funny "evil" laugh when he gets into something he shouldn't, talks and jabbers ALOT, loves to spend time with his cousins, makes truck noises to everything (even when he eats), and my favorite part is he STILL lets me ROCK him to sleep at night!! I know one day he wont but until then- I CHERISH each night night!
