SKIPPED SCHOOL...

Noah played "hookie" from school on Thursday. My mom took him to the movies, park, then this is what occurred after nap time!!! I think my parents just like seeing a little boy running in his skivies!!! (me too!)

MOMMA'S DONT LET YOUR BABIES GROW UP TO BE COWBOYS...

I was getting ready for church (of course taking long because I am moving slow right now) and I walked out into the living room to this...I about died laughing. Noah found his cowboy boots and told Ike to put them on. He was walking around in his underwear and boots. The best part of it all, he went to church with shorts and the boots on....it was soo terribly cute!

LILLIAN CLAIRE'S 3RD BIRTHDAY...

The lovely couple sharing a moment in the shade with their Mickey ears. The candle blowing (Noah helped)
then icecream and cake.....

..and presents...ok, so look at the photo above to read Noah's shirt. It is a picture of Mickey Mouse that says I'm the boyfriend. Of course, below is Lily opening her gift with a matching shirt of Minnie Mouse, I'm the girlfriend! It was the hit of the party...

A real cowboy and cowgirl ride off into the sunset.

Plaaaay ball!

Then the road off into the sunset in the Barbie jeep. This is our future (with the exception Noah will not have a pink and purple jeep when he drives!!!)

Then to finish the day, Lily got her pink tackle box (her daddy loves to fish at their camp)

Finishing the day in smiles and love!

BACK TO THE BEACH...

Aunt Mae Mae (Godmother to Baby #2) tickling Noah while Poppa & Nikola warm up!

Noah won a ribbon for finishing the race (that never started yet!)Go Poppa Go! We cheered him on as he ran across the finish line!Noah running up and down the levee.This is Poppa and Noah race walking the 2 mile. Alysa (from Noah's school) ran with her Mommy.After the race while the parents cooled down, Noah and Alysa kept going and going and going!Now it's time to paaaaarttty! Noah and Aunt Mae Mae grooving to the music.

Chef's family met us out there so that the boys could play.

The Band aid Bandits!

TO BED, TO BED I SAID...

Yeap, I was sentenced to the bed today. I pulled something in my back. So along with a life supply of icee hot, ice pack, On Demand and water, I sit. The good news the baby is fine. Her/His heartbeat was 155! That little gummy bear was swimming all over my belly they couldnt get a definite reading!!!! This came at a bad time, we have a busy weekend then a REALLY busy month of June....even though I am hurting and have sooo much to do....I know it is best for baby #2. We DO NOT need to revisit the symptoms I had with Noah ending in 2 months preterm labor. Just keep the prayers coming...

ps...I have the best mom in the world! She picked up Noah from school, brought him home, played with him, then cleaned the house and washed our laundry! Thanks Mimi!

END OF SCHOOL...

We were thrilled to hear that the last day of school was going to have a song performed by the class along with the blow ups and train ride. The baby 2's performed "Old MacDonald had a Farm" - of course you did not have a clue what they were saying and there was one that cried the whole time. Noah's class performed (well lets just say....hmmmm...well...we are not sure what song it was) a Hawaiian tune. Noah smiled the whole time while Lily did the movements. The 2's turning 3's did "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" and the 3's did a tribute to America saying the Pledge of Allegiance. After this fabulous 5 minute performance we ran outside to the spacewalks and train ride. Yeap, stretching an hour we were ready to leave! Dad took Noah for lunch and nap so that Ike and I could go to the baby#2 dr. visit. It was a pointless visit really. She said how do you feel? you look good? your test look great? see you in two weeks! Yuck!! Glad to know that this prego is going great, just OVERLY anxious about finding out if we have a Skylar Mackenzie Joan Manuel or a Lucah Patrick Manuel (still pushing for a girl!)

This is far across the room. My little teachers pet watching the baby 2's sing!
Dont ask? I have no clue what that face is!
Here is the whole class. They were suppose to be dancing but as you can see Lily is, Noah is hiding his face!
Here we go Noah is dancing the beat of his music in his head!
i love this one of Lily!

Noah and Lily jumped for a couple minutes!

Go Lily!

Go Noah!

Mimi stopped by before going to school and Popeye came to report for babysitting duty!

Their teacher Ms Susan and the couple!

After waiting in line forever, Ray sat with Lily and Ike with Noah and they took a train ride up the street

CAMP OUT

Ike had to work late, so Noah and I decided to have a camp out. We made the tent 3 times before Your Majesty loved it.

Dont all tents come with a DVD player and Backyardagans?

this is the next morning, he woke up and demanded to eat breakfast in the tent!
