End of May Fun!

We set out to go fishing Saturday morning! Here's Cade riding in Daddy's truck.
Here's Carson riding in Daddy's truck. Here's Mommy with the twins driving Daddy's boat! We had a fun picnic and even did a little fishing til the rain came. Daddy rushed us back to the landing and carried both babies all the way back to the truck and loaded them up to keep them from getting soaked!
Fun times with Mommy's extra swimsuit on the way home!Back in pjs after bathtime Saturday night!
Carson loves to try to stand on his head!
And the boys have figured out how fun it is to stand in their rocking chairs!
Rabbit face - I just thought that display of teeth was just too cute! They have 6 and 7 teeth. Those molars are finally coming all the way through. For a while you could see the tooth in two places because the center of it hadn't broken through the gums. They're eating more again now, so it must feel better.
More playing!Carson likes cousin Hunter to hold him!

Carson and Cade walk around with Uncle Ricky in the yard!
Cade checks out Grandma Ree's waterfall before going home for a nap!

Playing this week!

Here's Cade and Carson playing under the table in the breakfast nook one morning this week!

Here they are about to swap cars one afternoon!
Mommy tried to get a picture of each of the twins with the oak trees Daddy planted for them when they were born.
Cade above with his and Carson here with his oak tree. They're growing so nicely. He is not actually this skinny - he's sucking in here as he cries and tries to get back to me. They each weigh 23 and 1/2 lbs.
And I had hoped they'd never find these stairs. We'll let you know the first time one of them falls off the porch. Yikes. Time for Mommy to get quicker!
The boys had their first night with just Daddy one night this week when I went to a seminar in Columbia. They did great and even talked to me on the phone - "Hi."

Papa, Nana, Big Papa, and G.G. come to visit!

Cade and Carson were so excited to have Papa there when they got up Saturday morning!
Papa and Nana enjoyed playing outside with the twins!
Nana helps Carson keep from crashing into Cade!
We decided to visit Tammy - G.G.'s niece - who doesn't live too far away on her farm right at the state line in North Carolina! She impressed the boys (and the rest of us) with all of her horses and animals and farm stuff!
Cade saw the kitty and got shy.
Carson loved petting the kitty cat!

Carson was not into riding the horse!

Although the picture doesn't show it, Cade was thrilled to ride a horse again!

Carson was very attached to his Papa all weekend, so we thought the horse ride would be more fun if Papa were with him on the horse - that's a big "No!" from Carson.

Cade was not shy around the horse!

Carson loves driving the tractor!

Cade is really into his work on the farm!

And here's Cade when I took him down off the tractor seat.

Cade and Carson enjoyed eating at Dale's Seafood Restaurant.

G.G. and Big Papa had fun chasing after Cade and Carson all weekend!

Papa with his two grandsons!

Carson and Cade were not happy that everyone was about to leave this morning!

Carson and Cade with Mommy, Papa, and Nana!

Cade, Big Papa, Mommy, Carson, and G.G. say goodbye with a picture before Mommy and the twins head off to church and everyone else headed home! The boys were glad to have Daddy get home from his fun golf weekend with his college roommates. And now all my boys are taking a nap, and I just might try to do the same after staying up late this weekend losing at all the cards games!!!!

Playing at Mark Randall's!

We had fun at Mark Randall's house the other night! His Daddy is feeling better, but keep praying for Mark and April!

Here's Mark Randall showing Cade and Carson some of his toys!

He's trying to get the boys to smell the toy flower he has.

The twins had lots of fun playing with Mark Randall and his toys!

Happy Mother's Day!

Happy Mother's Day to our Nana, Grandma, GGM Viv, GG, Great Grandma Ree, and Great Great Grandmother Dowell! And all other mommies that we love!

Daddy, Cade, and Carson gave Mommy lots of fun stuff including this Instant Scrapbook to put pictures in after our Disney World trip this summer!
Here we are in the nursery after the Mother's Day Breakfast at church!
