Mothers' Day and other assorted happenings

Hello Family and Friends!!

Well it's been a long time since you've had an update, so here I am obliging you all!!

The Beard Familys' new dog Snickers!! She's a King Charles Cavalier spaniel and about 13 weeks old. Yes, she was the runt of the litter as she is sooo tiny!
Before Ada new she shouldn't be in the crate, as it is supposed to be the dogs' alone place!!

Awww, holding her. Had to teach Ada not to lift her up by her hind legs or her neck...

Can't believe I never posted these!! This was the spread created for my mom and I on Mothers' Day. The boys and Skye did EVERYTHING! Not helping with the kids and dinner was tough (not that they didn't do a wonderful job) but it was hard not to help when they didn't know where something was or the like...just means my mom and I will have to pull out all the stops for Fathers' Day!

Skye put all of our names at our places!

My mom is lactose intolerant and fat intolerant (as she is always trying to be super healthy) so Skye made angels food cake!

We have a birthday bag, and this is it's cousin the mothers' day bag!

What we walked into

randomly cute pictures of Ada; it is easier to get pictures of her as she stands still!

My little bookworms! We also take the kids on Tuesday mornings to the library where they have reading time and crafts for kids 1-2, so Roarke tags along! Adas' favorite part is the computer time though...guess we'll have to eventually spring for KidSpiration or something!! Guess she inherited her mothers' love for computers!

Here Daddy! Read to me!

Roarke doesn't quite get the idea yet, that's why all of his books are board books and we don't let him check out library books yet...

Skyes' Birthday and other assorted adventures

We have been a bit busy lately, with the move, Josh driving like an man on a mission across the country (not really stopping for more than 2 hrs at a time to sleep), Skyes' birthday and now the aquarium! Here are some pics of what we have been doing lately. Gazing at fish
In the shark tunnel

Not sure where we were in this picture, but somewhere near a fish tank!

Almost everyone wanted in on this picture!

My happy little man just chilin while Daddy chases Ada around

It was a lot like this...what can I say she was excited!!

Checking out the penguins

Here is the shark we all touched!! Even Roarke touched it and looked at me and squealed!! Priceless!! Later we touched sting rays, sea cucumbers and star fish too.

More fish, sharks, sea turtles and sting rays!

Playing in the sea weeds

The Megalodon jaws

Roarke did this a lot in the beginning until he saw the fish and knew I was right behind him

Sometimes I feel like he is a goat. He will put anything in his mouth and bite it. I think he is just like Sunny in the movie a Series of Unfortunate Events!!

Ada in her favorite pot

Skyes' birthday! Yes, there is the infamous birthday bag behind them all!!

Dangerous

I am sorry in advance Mom, but other than the fact that your eyes are closed this is a great picture!!

So excited!!
