I can't wait to tell you all about our amazing day, but you see I have this monitor on my pointer finger on my right hand.  Typing is a little hard.  :( So instead I will tell u a short funny story that happened today. 

And yes, it is about these 2!  Maggie did amazing today with Archer!  Thank you all for the prayers about Mags and how she was going to do with baby Archer.  Please keep them up.  Anyways... So I was holding Archer in bed this afternoon and Maggie just had to join us.  It was so sweet.  And then out of nowhere Maggie leaned over and honked Archer's nose!!  She grabbed it and said "honk"!  It was so cute!  She honks mine, Daddy's and Bubba's noses all the time, but I didn't think she would try to get Archers just yet.  Watch out Archer!!  :)  It won't be long and Archer will be honking Mag's nose. 

Here is Hunter and Archer!  Hunter got to watch Julie (the BEST nurse and SWEETEST friend) give Archer a bath.  Then once he was warm, Hunter got to be the first one to hold him!!  He loved every minute of it! 

Okay and I couldn't write a blog post without mentioning this guy.  I have the greatest husband and my kids have the best daddy on earth.  Thank you Lord for such an amazing best friend who I get to spend my life with.  I am without words!  Thank you Lord for your many, many blessings!!

More about sweet baby Archer coming soon! :)

1st day of school 2011 =)

Yesterday was the first day of school for both Hunter and Maggie!  Hunter was sooo excited! :)

This year Hunter is in the shark class!  He could not wait for school to start.  Maggie is in the Sea Turtle class and has 2 of the best teachers at Beltway.  I am so glad she is in their class! 

I couldn't get Maggie to look at me.  She was excited though!  She didn't want to wear her backpack but wouldn't put her Minnie Mouse lunch box down. 

Maggie walking into the building.  Maggie did awesome!  She walked right into her class all by herself.  She didn't cry at all! :)  Such a big girl!  

Hunter walked right into his class and hung up his backpack!  He was so sweet!  

When I went to pick them up, Maggie's teaches said Hunter's class was playing on the playground at the same time and Hunter pushed Maggie on the swings.  Isn't that sweet!! Maggie had a great day (or so they said) and she even took a nap on her nap mat!  Yay Maggie!  To be honest I was a little worried about Maggie because she was up most of the night on Monday.  I don't know why, but she just did not sleep.  Glad she still had a good day at school! 

Hunter told me all about his class when I picked him up.  He loved music and loved making ants.  He came home with a couple of work pages that he completed.  He was so proud.  He was also excited that he got to eat in the cafeteria (aka Kiddie Park).  The oldest classes don't have to eat in their room like all the other classes.  

After school we made our traditional first day of school chocolate chip cookies!  Yummy!   I am so glad Maggie and Hunter both get to go to school this year.  We LOVE Beltway and I can't wait to see what this year brings for both of them!
