princess party
Our little girl turned four today. As you always hear, it seems like yesterday when we were bringing her home from the hospital. It was a wonderful day. Rachel seemed to have a great time, and it is always great to get to see the extended family.
Photos Since Last Update:
Some of the folks from CTS and RadioShack got together for Cricket
Becky, the kids, Sharon, and Amanda visited the Fort Worth zoo over Spring Break
First, Ben is Two, now Rachel is Four. Growing up too fast!
We had a long implementation at work the night before. I didn't manage to finally get to sleep until 4:00 am. Overall, things worked out very well, but it made for a very long day.
The long hours made something fun like Rachel's party that much better. She and Ben get so revved up for these events, you can't help but pickup on some of their energy. By later that afternoon, the whole family was zombie-like, though. I think we are all worn out after the event-filled weekend.
That being said, this zombie needs to brush his teeth and get bed. Long day of hunting brains tomorrow.

picture not so perfect
I have finally managed to catch-up on all of the photo updates I've needed to get done for months. You'd think I would be able to get to these more often now that the kids are getting older, but it just doesn't seem to get any easier - no matter how much I tell myself it well. <grin>

I've taken the easy route on captions, too. I knew if I spent anymore time coming up with excuses as to "not having time," it would never happen. At least I know myself, right? <wink> As you can tell by all of the entries, lots of things have happened since the last update.
The kids continue to be the center of our universe and consume the majority of our time. (As it should be...) Ben has hit his speech stride and gets better at expressing himself every day. It is so nice once they reach this point. Although, sometimes we wish Rachel didn't speak as well as she does now. <wink> They are still such a joy. And, as all children should, they are in full love of their grandparents. They speak about them constantly and always ready to see them.
Gosh, I feel so relaxed now. I don't have to get another update for at least 4 months, right?
