Archer and his pals...


A new friend, Issac, and they were not sure of each other! Issac's Mommy and I were friends from 6th-12th grade and then lost touch-11 years later we meet again!

Archer's pal, Luke, they try and get together once a week and play in Luke's backyard mainly, but sometimes the playroom, which ROCKS! His Mom and I meet when I worked at la mode became friends and then found out that we went to the same church!

At an Easter Party taking a break next to Miss Madeline, her Mommy and I went to college together, poolside after hunting eggs! The hostesses with the BESTEST ideas was Miss Abagail, her Mommy was a college roomie!

Archer's buddy and don't call him otherwise, Trey! If you ask Archer, "Is Trey your friend?" Archer would reply, "No- he is my buddy!" This day Mr. Trey was sharing his cheerios with Archer which was a first for Archer to try!
Another day with Luke enjoying snacks at the church playground!

So...it is too cute-CHILDREN and their pure innocence! I love that my friends are having children around the same time, so we can make them take pictures together like the ones I've attached and hug each other! Really though, it is such a blessing being able to share this journey in life with those around you and watch your children grow up together- it is such a joy for me to witness! The friendships they will have and the memories- that is a TREASURE!

BTW: The girl that Archer is grinning so BIG next to is Quinn, my friends daughter from college! LOOK- he is already trying to impress- he is pushing her around on his bus, which is HIS favorite outdoor "vehicle"!

Archer- you are a cutie to watch- a little bossy at times- you get that from me! It's true no need to hide the facts and then if someone pushes someone else while playing you aid the fallen one, so that makes you a little protective one as well, which that is from you Daddy! I am proud to call you my little monkey even when you steal someones toy while they are playing with it- for the most part if I tell you, "Archer that is not nice"- you give it back along with a hug and tell them sorry! You are quite the social dude for only a two year old- your good looks and great personality goes a long way for ya! ...so your Mommy knows!

Little house on the Praire...

Today at story time TUTS actors appeared and read "Little House on the Praire", which was a special treat! Archer was very attentive during the reading- he loved the horses in the book, but was not sure of the costumes they were wearing in person...Normally after the story and craft Archer walks up to the reader and thanks them, but NOT this time! Take a peek at the picture and his face tells it all..



BTW: Milestone last night Ashton went to bed at 9:00pm and woke up at 5:30am! I could not believe it- in fact I woke up several times nervous and checked on him, therefore I don't think I actually sleep well, but I was thankful for the milestone! Please GOD allow this to be our new routine is my prayer, now that I know Ashton can go through the night!

Enjoyed another snow cone today, but I learned my lessons from the first one and got Archer a clear Cherry one today- he loved it just the same! :)

Oh! Archer was in bed when Andrew came home, so he came in to kiss Archer goodnight and he told me to go and relax....thanks my Monkey!

So I'm relaxing...Tiffany
