A driver in our future

Cale gets so excited when he gets to sit in the driver seat. I so remember when Parker used to do this and still does. Our lives will change when these boys will be driving one day. So glad that this is several years away!!!

Monthly Lego Build

Every first Tuesday of the month, the Lego store at our Galleria does a "free" lego build. David and Parker always go there and wait in line for the doors to open at 5:00 for the 2 hour build. Caleb and I go as well and either go shopping while they wait in line or just sit with them and talk to some of our friends that are there as well every month.

Parker is really good at building and following the directions for the lego builds. So much fun to see Parker and David do this together every month. One day Caleb will want to build one as well.

The "GAP" boys

At Christmas, my sister Aimee got these GAP sweatshirts for the boys to wear while we are at the beach this Spring Break. Since Caleb is moving on into the next size of clothes, I decided it was time for them to wear them. I never thought I would dress my boys in matching outfits, but boy do they look cute. David found a free 8x10 photo for me to print at Walgreens yesterday. So we got this one below printed of the boys and it is now proudly displayed in our family room.
They have so much fun together. Caleb is finally rolling over this week and moving around more on the floor. He is trying to get on all fours and it probably won't be long until he is crawling. He loves to stand up and walk with us holding his hands and to stand up holding onto furniture. Parker is so anxious to have Caleb play with him this summer in the backyard with the castle and swimming pool. We love having these two wonderful cute boys in our lives.

Caleb's Baptism

Today was Caleb's baptism and what a beautiful day we had to really enjoy this special day. We enjoyed having my parents come up from their beach trip of 7 weeks to sing "The Lord's Prayer" during our church service. Caleb was very excited to be up front and to be seeing everyone looking at him. He was jumping around in David's arms. I think Pastor Bill Hay was very shocked at how heavy Caleb was when he took him in his arms to baptism him. So glad that Caleb could fit in the same outfit that Parker wore at his baptism. Here is a great picture of us with my parents and David's Dad

Our beautiful family of 4. What a special moment today for David and I to commit to raising our boys in a Christian home and to tell them about the love of Jesus Christ has for each of us.
Sweet Caleb with Grandma Wiggers. He was so good in the service.

Happy Valentine's Day

Before the snowman and all the snow melted yesterday, we wanted to get a picture of the boys in front of our snowman. He is still standing today!!! Parker has to go look out our dining room window to make sure he is still there all throughout the day. He loves having the ablity to have his own snowman for the first time. We have even put snow in our deep freezer since we have a book that talks about a little boy and girl saving part of the snow before it is melted. Caleb and Parker in front of Mr. Snowman

Snow Day in Alabama

Today we finally got to see a lot of snow. This was the good stuff since it was great packing snow. One our of neighbors have 2 teenage boys and they came over to play with Parker outside in the snow. It was so special that these boys wanted to hang out with Parker. Parker was out there for 3-1/2 hours straight. I went out for a little bit with them to help dress the snowman while Caleb was sleeping. Seeing Parker loving to play in the snow brought back so many memories of my childhood with the snow in St. Louis. So glad that he got to finally experience his first "BIG" snowfall.

Mitchell was pulling Parker around on the sled in our yard and their yard. He thought it was awesome. This was his first time being able to do this.

Rebekah is 33 years old

Today I turned 33! Can't believe the years are flying by. It has been a fun day with David and the boys. Parker has reallly gotten into it this year with birthdays:blowing out the candles and eating cake. David surprised me with a Cake from Costco with their famous butter cream frosting in the middle. Yummy! Ever since we have been married I have made David and I both cakes for our birthdays and the last few years I have opted not to make myself one. So David was so sweet and kind to think about getting me a cake for my special day. It made my day that he bought me a cake. Boy was it good. We have decided to freeze half of it so we can eat it later on. So glad that we have that big freezer in the basement. My first cake from David. Love it!
Parker with Mommy before we light and blow out all 16 candles. I guess I could wish it was my sweet 16 birthday again.
Here we go to try and blow out all 16 candles.
Yum! I love the icing and cake.
See the mess I have made out of this cake!!!
