Taylor's Fundraiser
Taylor's school fundraiser is over. He turned in a grand total of $490. We've collected $25 more, {$515 total! WOW!} but since it was an online donation it didn't go towards the school total - but it goes towards the great cause nonetheless.
As I mentioned, Taylor's school was offering a reward for the top 8 fundraisers and Taylor was one of the top 8! So, he's going to Monkey Joe's in a Limo the day before the walk during school. He's so excited. I don't know how much the school was able to raise yet, I'm excited to find out though. We're still collecting donations (now through the link on the right) through the day of the walk.
Thank you all so much for supporting Taylor, and more importantly the March of Dimes.
I can't wait for the walk! I hope to see you there!

This post is a celebration of us all
{G r O w I n g }.
Our Boys are growing
The boys are getting so big. 8 days, in fact, until they turn O N E! So, we had to get new carseats! They love them, regardless of their expressions in the pictures. At least, more than they loved their other seats which were becoming incredibly restrictive to them and HEAVY for Wade and I!

The fitting and adjustment:
Since Carter is so updet in the picture above, here's a happier one of him:
...and here's what they look like in Big Blue:
We're still rear facing, and will stay that way a while longer.
Our Garden is growing
We've planted all our favorite vegetables, herbs, and cutting flowers so that I can keep fresh cut flowers in the house all summer without having to spend any GREEN!
We're walking tomorrow to help all babies be born healthy so they can grow too.
Here's a sample of our team's shirts:
(sorry for the bad pictures, I'll get a close up of the pic on the shirt and post it soon.)
Here are some pictures of "the boys'" shirts:

preemies,
Thank you
This post will stay here, on top, until the day of our March of Dimes walk on April 25th.

Since the funds Taylor and I raise need to go towards his school's total, we are collecting the funds in the form of cash or checks, made payable to the March of Dimes so that we can include them in the school envelope provided. Also - that means, for the contest, we have to have everything turned in by April 3.
We are still our own team, and we will walk as a team. The funds are going to roll into a school total. Obviously, this cause is close to my heart because of the babies it helps. But this particular fundraiser is also important to me because Taylor and I are doing it in a joint effort. I can't wait to see the impact this has on all the kids once they see the grand total their efforts have raised for babies. This is going to be such a valuable lesson and experience for him.
Please consider donating! Every dollar counts! Email me for more info!

Both Carter and Tucker have started rolling insanely. ...Like across the room in 30 seconds. ...I'm talking serious rolling ....to get where you're going style rolling. And wouldn't you know, they always go in opposite directions! That is, after they get done chewing on each other. Yes, there are some serious chewing battles too. Like Brayden getting Carter's foot the other day and holding it with both hands chewing while Carter kicked and started the alligator roll to get loose... yeah - SO MUCH FUN!
I never know how I'll find this boy (Carter) in his crib, I just pray he's in there somewhere!
Brayden's trying on his hat for me before we go...
The shoes I made for the boys
THE WALK!
Did I mention it was a 7 mile walk??? With a triple stroller?? ...that weighs over 100lbs with babies...
I can't wait to do it again next year!
I'm still working towards my goal of $250 for the March of Dimes. If you want to donate, or buy something from the Crafting 4 a Cause blog, click here.
