Ryler @ 3 weeks

I Love my boys... They are both so handsome ( I think ). While I took these pictures of Ryler he was such a good boy. It was hard to get rustin to be good for me for a minute, so that I could take some of him too... Maybe he is tired of me taking pictures of him or maybe it is just because he is two. But whatever the case he better start liking it cuz I love to do it! I can't believe how fast time goes. It seemed like Ryler grew so fast, well now that he is is almost 6 weeks ( and I am just getting these pictures on here). I love this little guy and he is such a good boy!













































































Mother's Day BBQ

I know that I am a little late, but ya know they say a little late is better than never! Or something like that. My life seems to be a little more busy with two little ones to take care of and love.

We went up to my grandmas house and helped with some yard work- well some of us and the other part of us made the hamburgers and hot dogs for our little BBQ. It was fun and something that we haven't done for awhile. All my sisters were there along with my mom & dad, aunts and some cousins. We also celebrated Logan and Mikinzies birthdays. They had a blast and of course enjoyed all of thir gifts. We love these little guys, along with all the rest of the little people in our family! I am sure lucky to have a mother and a grandmother to celebrate this day with . I also have a wonderful mother in law and I love all of them. Hopefully I will become a great mother like them . I know that we all have a few flaws, but I think if I can care for my two boys like my mom has cared for me then thats all I ask for. I am thankful for all that she does for me- sometimes it is just some encourage words and other times its more.... but I am glad that she is my mom and I love her.

Family Pics...

This is The whole Fitzgerald family. Ihas been years since we have all got together and taken a family picture. So... For Mother's Day Tiffany arranged the for the whole family to come to sunday dinner and then she had Heather Mckenna come and take some pictures of us. It was a job to get all of us in there and make sure that the kids all looked at the camera. We all are going to have the pictures printed big so that vickie can put her family on her wall. She was excited to have all her family here and update her pictures.

A few of us went to my mom's to make Mal's wedding dessert...
They were actually not too hard to make. If you went to her wedding then you will know what I am talking about. The things we made are the little Cinnamon roll up things that had some cream cheese mixture in them. They are delicious! It didn't take us long, because we had Me, mom, grandma Alice, Michelle (Carson's Mom) Mal, & Val. Grandma got pretty good at cutting and rolling the tortillas. Michelle and I filled them with cream cheese after and it took us a while to finally get them filled without getting all messy... Mal and Val took the tinfoil out of the middle and the toothpicks out. Then after that we ordered subways....





Here is Rustin eating a meatball sandwich. I didn't know if he would eat it but he loved the meatballs, but that's all.


After we ate we then went down to the church and decorated for the reception that was the next day! Great times...

So Sincere...

We went to Sunday dinner at Nana and Papa's house yesterday. Randy was asked to say the prayer. Well, when we are at home and we ask Rustin to say the prayer, sometimes he will and then sometimes he says that he doesn't want to and then just cuts in when he wants. So we were just sitting there listening to the prayer and all the sudden Rustin starts to help Randy say the prayer. Well, usually he will just copy whatever you say and usually it is like the last word or two of the sentence. But this time it was just like he was taking about something during the prayer. So when Randy was finished my mom says... did he just say "I'm thankful for my body". I wasn't sure what he said until my mom said that and then I realized that is what he said. So where did he come up with that cute little sentence. We talked about it for a minute and my mom asked if he learned aobut their bodies in nursery because thats the lesson that she gave in her sumbeams. I then realized that they had learned about their little bodies in Nursery because when I took him to nursery Amber was cutting out a coloring page that was about their bodies. I am not sure what they did besides that but I know that they talked about being thankful for their bodies and that Rustin really listened and learned something. I am usually in nursery because I am a leader along with Tasha, but since I had Ryler Amber has been my sub. I know that they are doing a great job and am thankful for what they have taught my little boy. I know that trying to come up with a little lesson that the nursery kids will understand is frustrating sometime and it is nice to see that they are actually learning. I am glad that he likes to say the prayer to thank Jesus for the the things that we have and someday soon he is going to say them all by himself.
