Matt’s BIRTHDAY!

Matt turned 31 on September 13th…and according to our friend, we are OLD….(you know who YOU are!!!!) Believe me…I feel OLD!!! These children are aging me…I’m really surprised that I don’t have gray hair…or maybe I do and I just havent noticed since I don’t look in the mirror very much anymore! Anyway, this post is NOT about ME…it’s about my wonderful husband. He doesn’t make a big deal about birthdays (opposite of me). I made some banana pudding for him because he LOVES it and I haven’t made it for him lately. YUMMY! We put candles in it and sang happy bday to him after the boys got done with supper. I rushed and put Larkin down and my parents came to put the boys down…Matt and I went to supper at CHILIS! I know, boring, right?!?! Well, we just aren’t really fancy eaters…especially me. So, I really prefer something laid back and easy. Plus, I didn’t want to leave my parents at our house to long and drive to Monroe. QUICK and Easy and we enjoyed some alone time and adult conversation! We ran by walmart to get some diapers on the way home…we are an exciting couple, aren’t we! The great part is…I LOVED THE EVENING…so even though it probably sounds boring to a majority of people, its perfect for me and my husband!!!!

We love you, Matthew!!!!!! WE hope we get to spend many, many more birthdays with you!!!!

The Woodards

My name is Garson Woodard. I'm a wife to Matt. He is the most incredible husband a girl could ask for. We met in Kindergarten at Cedar Creek (the school we attended for 13 years). Matt and I started dating our Jr. year in high school and dated for 6 years. We got married on June 26, 2004. I am so thankful that God brought us together! I am a mother to Trigger, Campbell, and Larkin. We worked hard to have all of them. After 2 miscarriages, two years after trying to get pregnant, a 2 week hospital stay, and a short (didn't seem short at the time) NICU stay, we brought home our first precious miracle: Trigger! He was born on July 29, 2008. Trigger's completely spoiled rotten! He is full of personality and definitely shows some of the same tenacity that his namesake had!

With our second child, Campbell, we made it to 38 weeks. He was born on June 3, 2010. He still had to stay in the NICU for 5 days for breathing issues. Campbell is absolutely precious..shy but such a little clown. I can't wait to watch our two boys which are 22 months apart) grow up together. I know they are going to fight constantly but be BEST of friends at the same time!

I just thought my boys were our miracles...and they are...but, at the end of May 2011, Matt and I found out that we were expecting the biggest surprise of our life. We were having baby #3 after being told we could never get pregnant on our own. AND, to add to the excitement, we were having a GIRL. After dealing with my medical issues, a two vessel cord, and IUGR, Larkin was born on January 6, 2012. She came here ruling the roost and I am sure that is not going to change anytime soon.

After what seemed like forever thinking that I would not have any children, God has blessed me with three beautiful babies all within 3.5 years.

After having Campbell, Matt and I decided I would become a stay-at-home mom. In alot of ways it is more difficult than teaching because I am with OUR children all day...and OUR children don't seem to listen like my students would. HOW DOES THAT WORK? Haha! Seriously though, it is the BEST job in the world and I feel very blessed to be able to be home to witness each and every minute of our boys' lives!

I started this blog when we found out we were pregnant with Trigger and have continued to document our crazy lives with a toddler and a baby since I don't have time to scrapbook anymore. Thanks for stopping by and I hope you visit again!
