Pierce's Fun Fun Birthday Weekend

 (12/4-12/7)

 The boys helped me clean before company came!  :)  Child Labor laws??

 It got pretty when Uncle Jason and Aunt Jenn got here and we got to play outside!

 Look at that cuteness!!

 My nephew does great selfies!  ;)

 Learning to golf with Uncle Jason!

 Chasing the golf balls!

 Brandon pushing Pierce!  I think it should have been the other way around!!

 Bath time!  Pierce was shaving Brandon....

 Reid was painting himself green..... we had it under control!!!  :)

12/5

We attempted the Zoo!  It rained!  Jason kept his phone ready and told us "WE HAVE 12 minutes to see this and then it is a downpour!"  We were soaked.... the boys were great because of the stroller canopies!  ha!!  As Aunt Jenn yelled "MEMORIES!!!!!!!!!"

My Honda Pilot does it.... it fits 3 kids in the back!  Daddy Jason had to sit in the VERY BACK!  :)

 "Whatchaya'll doing tonight?"  Love this picture Aunt Jenn took!  hahaha!!

Aunt Jenn and I are in the front seats as you can tell, and Pierce says at one time "Hey girls, what you talking about up there?"

 We got to watch the monkeys in the eating pavilion!!

 Look at Pierce, I posted this because it made me laugh!

 Brandon was DONE!  :)

 Sweetness was interestied in "Kiss-Mas" (per Reid) Lights rather than the animals!  ha!

 ALL THREE on one cool bench!

 Looking at the sea-lions through the bubble!

Reid and Brandon had fun!  ha!  :) 

We were soaked!!!

Afterwards we went to eat at The BBQ Shop!  At finish, Uncle Jason went to the car with Brandon as we were all paying.  We get out to the car and it is POURING rain.  Uncle Jason can't get the doors unlocked.  The car alarm is going off.  Reid is crying.  Pierce is on the sidewalk with a desperate look on his face.  Finally we get in.  The car alarm is still going off.  Finally we get it off.  Pierce says "We don't have to wash hair tonight right Momma?"  :)  No buddy, you have had a shower. You have had a good rain shower.  HA!

 Jenn helped me get Pierce's birthday cake..... THEN we took a dip off for a girly drink!  :)

That night we visited Aunt Nancy (Jenn's aunt in Memphis)with all the boys and had so much fun!  Brian and Jason were at a Grizzlies game!  :)

 Piano lessons!

 Karaoke!

Pierce, 

You have gotten so big!  You are growing into a little man!  You are extremely polite and loving! And truly very very sweet!  I heard you the other morning, just out of the blue, say to Reid "I love you so much Reid, you are my best friend!"  I'm so thankful Reid has you!  You are so complimentary to EVERYONE!  You have a great imagination!  Just please don't grow up too fast! Stay as grounded as you are, be yourself, continue to be as friendly as you are!  We are so proud of you!  

We love you so much!

Mommy, Daddy and Reid
