Trip to St. Louis

Taylor, Burke and I headed to St. Louis the other weekend to visit Taylor's brother and his family.  We had a wonderful weekend.  Burke LOVED being around his cousins Jackson and Brayden.  He never really has had a chance to spend some quiet quality time with them.  He thought he was such a big boy and wanted to do everything they did.  Jack and Bray were so good with him.  They are going to be awesome with their baby sister Emma who will arrive this October :)

On Saturday we went to the Cardinals game.  We got to take the boys in the dug out and they loved that.  Burke I think had more fun playing with the mini red baseball bat that Brayden got and eating everything he could get his hands on :)  

Sunday we headed over to the St. Louis Zoo.  Man was that a awesome place and I couldn't believe it was FREE to get in.  We saw so many cool animals and got some exercise walking all over that huge place. 

Brian and Ashleigh thank you so much for having us and for such a fun weekend.  We can't wait to see you guys again.  Oh and THANK YOU THANK YOU for all of the clothes for Burkie Boo.  That was SO nice of you guys!  That bag was so heavy we paid $50 to get it home :)

Burke LOVED his dip-n-dots ice cream!

Look at those lips :)


















We went into the butterfly house and that was super cool.  There were butterflies EVERYWHERE and they were all so beautiful!





Oh the way home from the zoo we thought Burke would pass out since he didn't get much of a nap that day.  Didn't happen.  He thought he was such a big boy hanging out with his older cousins :)



This is my favorite picture of my to favorite guys :)

Burke is 3!!!!!

Okay I have decided that time is going by way too fast.  Burke just turned 3 the beginning of June!  I can not believe it.  I feel like just yesterday I was in the hospital having the little guy!  We had a fun small family party and he is loving some super hero's right now so that was the theme :)  Silas really wanted to jump out when he walked in and yell surprise so that is what we did :)  Burke is super shy and he really wasn't a fan of it all.  Pibby and Pops got him his first bike and it is SO cute.   I picked up a balloon for all the kids and one special spider man one for Boo.  He has always loved balloons.  He said the sweetest thing....... he wanted to let his balloons go up to Mamie so she would know that it was his birthday.  I couldn't believe he let his special Spider Man one go.  It made me want to cry.  She should be here with us.  ANYWAYS, it was a fun day and I got some pictures of course and a few videos.  Happy 3rd Birthday Burkie BOO!  We love you so so

Baby Burke- Please Pray

Taylor and I went in for our big ultrasound this morning. I am 18 weeks along now, so they were checking out our baby boy closely. They found 2 genetic markers that caused a red flag. One cyst on the brain and his kidneys are enlarged. We need lots of prayers right now. Prayers for these markers to disappear and for our baby boy to be healthy. We also need prayers for our sanity as we wait, hope and pray. We will go back for another ultrasound in 8 weeks (March 31). We were told not to look this up on the internet and would appreciate only positive comments on this situation. God is good and we are leaving it in His hands. Thanks for your prayers, Sarah

NO FEAR!!!

I took the kids to the park this afternoon once the sun came out.  It was so beautiful and we love Woodlands Edge park.  Lots of trees, green space to run and Slides:) Winnie is small but that girl is mighty.  She has NO FEAR when it comes to the slides.  Which is totally different for me since Burke has always been so cautious.  I love days like this.  Feeling very blessed! - Sarah
