We have been so busy these last few weeks. Last weekend, we went to Mississippi for Natalie's birthday! We had such a great time and learned that we will be in the water with Mason a lot from now on! Happy Birthday Natalie!

He had so much fun!
We are the Bates family. Derek and I have been together for over six years now and we have two of the sweetest boys in the world! Mason is our first boy who joined our family on June 24, 2008 and Max is our newest addition who joined us September 1, 2009. Our life has been crazy but our boys make it the best life ever! We could not ask for more.
