Well it has been brought to my attention that I need to update my blog, So Ashley, This is for you!!!

Me, Ella, and Westin. Ella's first time in the pool. Austin and Westin being sweet. Austin recently learned how to swim under water. Wes's big accomplishment was jumping into the pool into Austin's arms. He was so proud of himself.
Daddy tricking Ella into thinking she was getting something good. Her first lemon.
Her face afterwards
My nephews Hunter and Nick with Austin.
Westin and his "classic look"

Ella and her favorite teether. This thing is priceless!!!!!

The boys playing.
This is pretty much why I can't get anything done. My two babies always up under me! (notice the laundry waiting to be put up)
And again......My 2 hip mates.


She's soooo Beautiful!!!

Austin's first black eye. While playing ball, he ran into another kid. They were both looking up and slammed into eachother. Austin thinks he's teaching Ella how to walk. He is such a wonderful and helpful big brother!
Wes calls Ella his " baby girl". He gets mad if Austin says differently. He's always checking on her, and giving her toys. When she starts to fuss, he will take her his "night-night" which is his blanket that he is very attached to. He normally does not share, but with Ella, he does. I have a feeling that he will be protective of her. Hopefully they will be very close.

Happy Easter

Easter was most fun this year! Austin found 8 eggs. Westin found 9 eggs including the prize egg. And Ella was just beautiful in her Easter dress.

Welcome Baby Ella Ruby Watkins

Finally, she's here! Born January 3rd 2008 weighing in at 7# 1oz.

Merry Christmas

We had a wonderful Christmas. This is our favorite time of the year. It was more laid back, with less stress and travel! Can't wait till next year!

Happy Halloween!

Austin was the Amazing Black Spider-Man

Westin was an Adorable Monkey

They had soooo much fun. We went to see Ms. Brownie first, then went around the neighborhood trick-or-treating, then to Woodside. They were exhausted by the end of the night. I enjoyed seeing them have so much fun.

Westin did great. He is a VERY moody child. I really was not sure he would even wear his costume. Up until this night, he would look at it and say, "Nope" while shaking his head. The fact that he wore it, loved it, and never threw a single fit the whole time SHOCKS me!!! He even said,"Thank You" to everyone and attempted to mutter "Trick-or-Treat".

Austin couldn't wait to get his costume on. He says he is the "Real Spider-Man". He already knew the drill for getting candy. I really couldn't keep up with him. It was a good thing that my mother-in-law and 2 sisters in law went with us. I can't believe this is his 6th Halloween. This is his second time as spider-man.

Needless to say, they both slept well.

Getting ready for baby Ella Ruby. I am 6mths along here. It's going by so fast. We are fast at work on her room. Hopefully it will be done by the time I have the baby shower.

I feel the need to kinda start from the beginining. This is for all of you have aggervated me to death about starting a My Space page. This is more "family-like"!!!

I love showing off my boys and talking all about their accomplishments, and funny stories. BUT since life is sooooo hetic and on the run, I don't get to share as much as I like (or as Ashley would put it, "Brag about them as much")

David and I started dating in 1994! WOW!!!! Seems like forever ago. Anyway this is our 1st picture together. So, This is how it started............................
