Happy 4th Birthday Clayton!

How has another passed by right before our eyes. Well it has and here's a glimps into Clayton's 4th birthday party. It's was/is super hot so we got a bunch of water toys and let the kids enjoy their day outside. We love living so close to the NOLA family. Clayton and Mackenzie are two peas in a pod. Watch out world...here they come.
We got lucky this year that my mom and Lolli&Pop were dropping the kids off in time to spend Clayton's birthday with us. This is the "Greatest Mom Award". 1. for me renting a cotton candy machine...yum and 2. for my mom getting all sticky to spread the sugary joy.

Alex and Clayton can't wait to open up the gifts!

Clayton is in love with anything with wheels. He really wanted a monster truck cake from Dairy Queen (like he had last year) but Dairy Queen doesn't do this design any more. Thanks to Tre's mom, Ms. Lourie and her eatable printer, we got a perfect ice cream cake.

and cupcakes of course!

Baby Hank is Here!

Weighing in at a whopping 8 lbs 4.4 oz and 20 inches long, we welcomed Baby Hank into the Loftin family July 21st 2011 at 8:19 am. He is the best baby and perfectly content just sleeping...

Happy Easter Everyone!!

Happy Easter! We're back and bloggin'. We had a short, but great, visit with Lolli and Pop this weekend. Lolli left early Sunday morning to surprise our cousin Rayla Bay so we got some good picts with Pop!

Pop was a trooper: dying eggs, telling us the true meaning of Easter, chasing the Easter Bunny (see below), and helping us find all the hidden eggs.

Since we had another hand, we actually got a family picture for Easter. Yeah! AND it appears that there are four people smiling at the same time...its a good day!

We had an Easter Social yesterday at Church. It is tradition for the kids to color hard boiled eggs, the Easter Bunny hids them, and then everyone goes outside to find them with their buddies. Clayton was all over these eggs!!! He didn't want to eat them but he carried them around for 2 days. We're going to have to blow them out next year if he's going to continiue to hort smelly eggs. This picture is of him either kissing or smelling the eggs...

Ahhh, what my husband does because he can't say 'no' :)!!! This was the final year for Chris to be the Easter Bunny at church. He does such a great job of hopping in, scarring the little kids and winning the hearts of the big kids! Way to go Babe!
