Chase and his bball...this is in our childcare area at the gym...
Tyler waiting on his daddy! Eric braved the Hotter than Hell 100 mile bike ride a few weeks ago! We went along to cheer for him and brave the heat as well! 
He did it! All in one piece, 100 miles....We are so proud! PS...This is his new hobby/exercise...
Chase 22 months
Tyler 4 1/2 
I think the blog falls short these days with all there is to update between emails, phone, blog, facebook and now our church even has a facebook type tool. So I am doing my best to keep it up! The boys and I are great. Tyler and Chase both started school last week. They both did great, Chase was better the second day but that was to be expected. HE is starting to talk more and more each day and becoming less frustrated. He is obsessed with bball and I have moved the goal and all the balls inside, I am choosing to fight another battle! Tyler is in his second season of tball and loving it. He has really gained some confidence and is impressing us all:) 
Eric has been busy with work and enjoy his new cycling groups. For mommy, I am great! I am loving my work with Beads of Courage and am now over the current member hospitals (60+) and any new program startups. So I am staying busy and loving where we are with the boys! 
I miss our atlanta friends and family...be home over Thanksgiving!

Destin, Florida 
Good Girl Time! 
Colin, Dawn, Deb, Courtney, Erika and Jessica

I had a great opportunity to go and spend time with the girls! and I took it! Eric's mom came in for the long weekend and I got to fly to Atlanta and drive to beautiful Destin with the girls. It's hard to believe we have known each other almost 10 years and what a blessing:)
The boys did great, I think they wore out their Nana but that comes with their ages!!

 Good times this week. We went to Hawaiian Falls today which is a small water park and had a great time. Earlier we met up with my moms group/playgroup...
Tuesday night at the Frisco Rough Riders game! 
Nothing like a playground at the ball park! 
Our big boys! 

We have had a great week. Sis and her family came on Monday and we have had a blast. The boys get along so well and baby Austin wins Best Baby award for sure! Chase was not so sure of having a baby in the house so sadly I did not get to squeeze on him as much as I wanted too:(
More pics to come...

Tyler had his end of the year T-ball party at the Rough Riders game here in Frisco. Our Coach Matt scored the Cool Pool zone area which is a pool in the outfield sitting area. It was awesome! As team mom, I learned alot this year! I look forward to next season....

Meet Happy Chase! In the last 2 weeks, this little guy has decided to wake up happy, stay happy, go to nap happy, wake up happy and play happy ALL day! This is quite a dramatic change for him since I was about a few days away from going to the doctor to help me "DEAL" with this little fellow! 
This sweet smile is now what I get to experience! It has taken most of his 21 months but I knew he had it in him. I always have said he is going to be a great teenager since he has given me a run since birth:) 
Yeah for happy babies! It really makes a happy mommy and a happy wife!
