My sweet little Maddux. He is so adorable. He keeps me laughing and on my toes. haha. He is out on spring break right now and it has been great having him at home with Bella and I. The other day Tilden told him no about something and instead of getting mad and throwing a fit he just looked up at daddy and said dad lets sit on the couch and talk about this. Tilden just broke out laughing. He is growing up. It is so sweet to watch him play. he loves to play pretend and make believe. And I love love love it how he loves to take pics. he is my little model. I love you boo....
The sweetest boy.
Little stud.
What mom....
Maddux was being silly and wearing my hat and making Bella laugh. He is so sweet to her. HE is such a great big brother. everytime Bella sees him she lights up.
Maddux loves his tummy time with Sissy.

Just an update.....

So since Tilden has been home the weather has actually been a little decent. We decided to go on a walk with the kids and dogs.
I tried to handle the dogs for a bit. They are handful...
Just gettin back from the walk and Bella was passed out.
The boys went on an adventure. This is Maddy's favorite thing to do.
Headin out.
Getting ready to head out.
My baby girl..
Pretty blue eyes.
little doll baby
Getting ready to take off.
Im gonna do it....
Bella is getting so big. She is now at the stage where she gets herself in the crawl position and just rocks. It is the cutest thing. The last week Bella finally caught the bug that has been going around. It is her first time being sick. Poor little girl. But she is pulling through and is going to get her 6 month shots next week.

Welcome Home Tilden......

The sign we had made for our soldier! Thanks babe for all you do for us.
It has been an amazing 24 hrs. It is so wonderful to have Tilden home and all of us be together again. Picking him up was so many feelings all at once, I was all shaky and butterflies in my stomache. I just couldnt wait to kiss him and hug him. We deff realize we take each other and many other things for granted but this time apart deff makes us appreciate each other and all the small things. Maddux couldn't hardly wait to see him walk off the plane and into the terminal. And little miss Bella I think she recognized the voice but was definetly a little confused. He talked alot to her on the phone while he was gone just so she wouldnt forget him completly. Yest and today have been amazing so far, and im sure for the next while they will be. Things are a little surreal still but we are all adjusting. Tilden is doing great. And he looks awesome!! I have taken a ton of pics already.
So mom and Cy, this is what I wore. not too bad right. I thought it was pretty darn cute. and I must say Tilden was pretty happy at what he saw too. haha lol
The plane right when it landed.
Patiently waiting.........
All dressed up to see Daddy!Glad you are all home safe and thank you all for serving our country!!! WELCOME HOME!
There he is!!!! Walking in to us!! YAY!!! What a stud muffin!
Maddux ran up to him and daddy picked him right up for a tight hug that was long overdue!!!
Trying to hug all at once haha and see his new little girl. We sure missed you babe. Glad your home safe. Bella's first kiss from daddy! Love you babe.
Just the 4 of us again at last! First family pic of 2009!
Daddy's girl!
She is trying to figure him out! Tilden brought home all kinds of stuff so we played dress up last night and this is what I would look like if I was in the military. and I swear every military ID I have seen they all look mad. I wonder why..... haha We had a lot of fun playin around.
Cuddle time for Maddux and Daddy. He missed cuddling with daddy. I love my boys.
Daddy's first time feeding Bella. and you did great babe! Tilden has always loved trying to put his kids in the air to balance with him holding her with one hand. Your sure crazy daddy. Bella sure loves you though. And we are so so so so so glad you are home safe back with us. We are so proud of you and all that you are.

This is it......

I can't even begin to explain how I feel right now!!! I am so dang excited to see Tilden. 4 months is such a long time. I feel like I am going to have to relearn how to do everything. haha. not really but it just feels so fake. It just doesnt seem real that this is happening. I got everything all finished up yest. I got the sign hung, the house clean, and the truck running. we are good to go!! AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH I am so excited. I just wanted to share my excitement with everyone!! and not only am I excited im nervous! I know when I am standing in the airport waiting for him I will be all shaky and most likely cry. haha but I know my emmotions will be overwhelming! I can't wait to finally have new pics to post. Less than 5 hours and we will be a family again. I will keep you all updated. This is now a new chapter in our book! IM READY..............
