stop and smell the peonies

one of 5 peony plants in our garden!

Our first rose bloom of the spring.

Peonies are far and away my favorite flower, so I have 5 peony plants in our garden. 2 of the plants I planted from bulbs, and 3 were transplanted from my moms garden when they moved from their house in OKC to the farm. This is the first spring that I have tons of blooms, so they literally fill our house!! I am cutting them as they bloom and bringing them inside to enjoy because we finally sold our house!! We are going to make an offer on the house we want to buy today and will hopefully be moving on June 2nd, if there is anyone out there who is willing to help us move, or keep our child!. We will definitely be having everyone over for a housewarming / July bday party at the end of July.

23 months old

Hayden is 23 months old today! His current favorite things are robots, trucks, dinosaurs, and cars. He has decided that he wants to have a robot birthday party in May. His favorite expression right now is "I don't like that Momma!"

House For Sale

Just a few photos to get the word out! Wade and I put our house on the market last Monday. If you guys know anyone looking to move to Norman, voted the 6th best small city in the U.S. , you have them give us a call!!

lovin the weekend weather!

Saturday morning at the zoo!

The baby giraffe was out and about on Saturday morning at the zoo. She is too cute!

Watching the lions on the hill.

Not cooperating for a pic with mommy after our snack. The kangaroos are in the background playing.

We had so much fun at the zoo on Saturday. The weather was a perfect 60 degrees and all of the animals were out running around. I don't think I have ever been to the zoo when all of the animals were out and visible. It is so much fun going to the zoo now that Hayden knows his animals. I was a proud mommy when he pointed and said "bison" when we walked up to the bison on the Ok trails.

More Farm Fun!

My parents farm house.

The Junior showmen showing the pigs!

I put Hayden in the pen with my cousins sheep and he loved them. He immediately pet them and started talking to them. He said "hi sheep, what are you doing?" Too cute!

Watching Zachary show his sheep.

Hayden, Harper, and Zade watching the animals.

Last weekend, Hayden and I went to the farm so Wade could get the new floor in our laundry room. We got to go to a 4H show and watch my cousins son show his sheep. It was so much fun and Hayden loved it. He tried to climb into the arena many times. He is definitely an animal lover!

2 months pics of CMG

Wow! This guy just gets cuter and cuter!! Since his mommy doesn't blog, I am taking it upon myself to share pictures with you all. He is up to 8 1/2 lbs, and is so happy.

What a Dad!

Hayden wanted to ride his horse in the snow last weekend, so Wade tied a rope to the horse and pulled them around our neighborhood for a long time! The neighbors,(and myself), thought it was hilarious. We are going to have to invest in a sled next winter!
