A Mother's Love

I was on facebook and a fried of mine posted this link...I cried as I watched it!! http://today.msnbc.msn.com/id/38988444
AMAZING!! It got me to thinking about what a mother's love can do for a child.

I never truly understood this until I had Lane. I would see a child fall and all it took to make that child stop crying/hurting was a kiss from Momma. I see this action everyday with Lane, and it amazes me each time. No one else's kisses work as fast as mine! But this video got me to thinking about what else a Mother's Love can do.

It can help a broken heart. I know this from so many past experiences, that is until I met JJ. Broken heart after broken heart, she was there to pick me up. However I mean broken heart in a total different way also. JJ and I had a four year journey to get to finally become parents. In that four years our mother's would pick us up, wipe away the tears, and tell us that everything was going to be okay. As it turned out they were right. Now we have Lane, and I can honestly say that a Mother always knows best.

We are so truly blessed to have these women in our lives, and I hope that one day Lane will feel the same way about me. I know without a doubt that he loves me, I see it each day. From the time he wakes up with a I love you Mommy, to the time he goes to bed saying "Sing Sunshine again Mommy"(we sing you are my sunshine each day) When he hurts my heart hurts for him, and I feel that is the reason why a mother's kiss is the cure all. The love that Lane has brought into this house and our lives is one that only a child can bring. They truly are God's Miracles. The day I became a mother is the day I stop living for myself and start living for him. So Lane, I LOVE YOU WITH ALL MY HEART. YOUR MY SON ARE MY SUNSHINE.

21 months! Really??

So Lane is 21 months old!?! How did that happen? It seems like just yesterday we were on our way home from the hospital with our little bundle and scared beyond belief!! Lane is growing up too fast!!

He started Mother's Day Out Wed.. He loved it!! Mommy and Daddy were scared the school was going to be calling to make us come get out screaming bratty kid!! When I got there to pick him up, his teacher said he did wonderful!! He is talking so well..he is speaking in sentences..My personal favorite is "I LOVE YOU MOMMY" It melts my heart every time!! When he says that Mommy turns to Jell-o and Lane gets what he wants(not really)!!

Lane and Jaedyn

We went down to Hobart the last weekend in June. I had two photo shoots scheduled and then we decided last minute to take some pics of Jaedyn. We got some adorable pics and then we got some great shoots of Lane and Jaedyn together! Enjoy!!!

SUMMER TIME=BUSY TIME

Hello out there!! It summer time and that means BUSY!! It seems like we have something going every weekend! Lane went and spent last week with Nonna and Pops(also Aunt Jamie and Uncle Turtle) in Hobart last week. He had a blast and came home without Fred(the paci)! He said goodbye to his old friend 2 weeks ago this coming Sunday!! Yay!! He also learned a few new words...Homey, Diggity, Boo Yah, and a few players off the Texas Ranger line-up.

While Lane was gone, Daddy was on call and Mommy got a lot of stuff done around the house!! I painted the front door RED, tore up the tile in my bathroom, and weeded my flower bed(AGAIN)! I was a nice little break, however I missed the monster so much!!

So now you are wondering where the pics are?!? Well here are some pics from Memorial Day weekend!! ENJOY!!

Back to Normal Life

So we survived the wedding!! It was beautiful!! But now I am back to my favorite job in the world, a Mommy and Wife!! I have missed this!! JJ told me yesterday that he has missed me this last week!! LOL, poor guy!!

So to get back to it all, I have decided to cook a recipe for dinner all this week!! This should be interesting!! I promise to update you on how it all goes!! Wish me luck

Opppsss!!!

So this has been such a CRAZY time!! Tayler(my lil sis) is getting married in 3 weeks, so we had her wedding shower Sunday. It's hard to believe that my lil Teddy Bear is going to be married. It seems like only yesterday I was having to her feet out of the steeling wheel. Time sure does fly! It's seem like once you are out of school time doesn't drag on anymore. So enjoy each day and each other.

Easter!!!

We had a pretty good Easter!! We didn't make it to church however! Lane decided that 5 am was a great time to wake up and then went back to sleep around 9 am!! We headed over to The Srocks for some Easter fun!! We ate some tasty burgers and hot dogs!! YUM!! Then we let the Easter Bunny hide the eggs!! The kids came out and this is what happened....Cassie started running everywhere, Lane however found one egg, got it open and start eating the candy!! LOL...Crazy little boy!! Well here is the pics you all come here for!!
