Thankful Thursday~Two peas in a pod

These two are getting more and more alike each day. I can't tell if it is just that Landry loves his big brother and wants to do and act just like him or if they both are just really a lot alike. Does that even make sense? Whatever it is I sure love seeing Pete and Repeat enjoying each other! Casey calls this picture his little Hugh Hefners (because of the robes). I absolutely love that they have each other and always will. It makes me sad for Lauren to not have a sister but I grew up with 2 older brothers and no sisters. I think that is why my mom is one of my very best friends. My relationship with Lauren feels like this too.
I am having a Thankful Thursday moment!

You have a smile so bright!

My beautiful Lauren got her braces off today. Yeah! She was 7 years old when they put them on. Bless her heart she has a really small mouth and lots of teeth that want to come in on top of each other. She gets to keep her braces off for 2 years.....then back on. She was beyond thrilled! Here she is a little nervous about taking them off. If you have ever had braces then you know that the orthodontist's chair is not very fun at times.
What a champ she was! Tomorrow she will get her sparkly retainers to wear after school. Oh sweet Lauren, your teeth have already come a long way. You have a smile so bright! Love you sweetpea~mom

Wii Par-tay!

This weekend we had the Hoodies over for a jam session on the Wii. (a note to our sweet hubbies......don't quit your day job. jk!) The little hoodies had a chance to get together and play. It is always a hit when Walker comes to play.

Landry and his little date, Haddie. These two just had the best time at their little table together. So cute.

Some serious jammin going on!

The groupies (One of our beautiful hoodies is going to be having a baby boy soon. We can't wait!)

Kari and Karen (sisters) Such Rock stars!

Even Landry had to show off his skills to his date.

The Wii party continued on this morning with Lauren. She is so into this! Is it wrong for my ten year old to know all of the words by Bon Jovi?

Such a Diva!

and her band.

So it looks like the Reeds will be going on tour now. As long as I can be the road manager I am in! Fun times with the Wii.
