Ending the school year 2017

So I have NO time to blog anymore. ...which is why I post so much on Facebook these days.

I'm catching up! Here's some fun end of school stuff 2017!

Harrison's last day of 3 year old pre-k!
Mrs. Tammy (left) and Mrs. Sharon (right) were the best! harrison loved them so much!
I think one of my favorite things about Harrison is how awkward he is in pictures- he's so dang cute!

Next, it was awards day for the big boys! These boys are so smart!

Austin earned Honor Roll (all year), Outstanding Reader, and a special Lubbock ISD award for his district test scores, LISD Scholar.

Jackson earned Honor Roll (all year), Outstanding Achievement in Math, and the LISD Scholar award. Look at that swagger!

Look at these brothers- they are night and day, but they sure make my heart so happy.

And finally, the last day of school!
On to 2nd grade for Austin.
We love you Mrs. Taylor!!!!

On to 5th grade for Jackson- his final year in elementary. Sad.
We love you Mrs. Reves!!! ...and Mrs. Derek and Mrs. Marine!!!!

And because he's so flippin cute, here's one of the tiniest Nuffer waiting for his brothers after their awards assembly:

BABY NUFFER #2 is on his/her way!!!!

That's right, we were waiting to tell everyone, but today we had our second appointment and the second sono and Baby Nuffer #2 is doing well. Most of you know that we had a miscarriage in June after struggling with infertility, it was a very devastating time for us. We were "advised" to wait a couple cycles before trying again (and we were going to take the advice), but a little voice, I know now it was the Spirit, told me we should try again as soon as possible. I talked to Jim and he agreed and sure enough baby #2 is on it's way again! This little one is very healthy and has a strong heartbeat!! We aren't out of the woods yet, I'm just under 9 weeks and at 12 weeks our chances of miscarriage drop significantly. I don't feel we'll be out of the woods until I have our little baby in my arms, which will only give me a whole new set of stresses to worry about. ;) This is Baby Nuffer #2 at 6 weeks and 5 days. If you look close it's off to the ...

Easter 2012

This year we had our big family Easter dinner on Friday because Grandma had to work on Sunday. I tried out a new recipe for dessert which I found on Pinterest (of course). It's a super rich chocolate brownie cake. It turned out great, but was a little too rich for my taste. However, I really think that if you are a true die-hard chocolate lover then you will LOVE this recipe . I thought I was a true die-hard chocolate lover, but this cake beat me. A good friend of mine makes Easter cupcakes with her kids every year. I saw them on her blog last year and I thought they were so cute! This year we made them at our house to hand out to our neighbors. Jackson helped with the baking and decorating. He has some mad grass and egg decorating skills! He also decorated the plates that we handed out the cupcakes on. Our neighbors were quite impressed with his work. For some reason I still get these little momentary realizations that I'm a mother of two, and I get this rush of emo...

Maybe a new birthday tradition...

I just have one brother and his birthday is 5 days before mine, so it's been pretty easy to keep up with him. Jim, however, has 3 brothers and a sister, and now 3 of his siblings are married, so the birthday's just keep adding up. My forgetful brain can NOT keep up. Anyway, I've been looking for a cute and thoughtful way to send birthday greetings to all the aunts and uncles since we've been married. Almost 4 years later I think I finally have an idea! My idea is to make a birthday sign every year and have the boys take a picture with the sign for whatever family member has a birthday. Then send the person the picture with birthday greetings. Then every year they will have a different picture with the boys as they grow and I won't feel guilty missing anyone's birthday without proper acknowledgement. I also thought that it would make a great photo album for us if we keep each person's birthday picture with the boys and watch their growth progression ...
