Easter Egg Hunt at Na-Na and Pa-Pa's.




Oh what fun!! Kayla got a ton of candy!! Her cousin Andrew was so sweet, helping her find eggs and even gave her a couple. Those two are so funny when they get together!! We had a great day visiting them and the food was delish!! Good job Gary! :-)

Easter!






Easter is my favorite! The kids woke up to their Easter baskets and candy, and then we got dressed and went to church. It was a beautiful service, and the kids looked so cute all dressed up. Bray got to wear his little suit and Kayla picked out a pink Easter dress that was perfect for her. After church we went to "Na-Na" and "Pa-Pa's" house and hunted Easter eggs.

Good Friday






Alan had Good Friday off, so went to the Nature Perserve here in Plano and went for a walk. I have never known about the place, even though it's only a few minutes from our house, but it's really neat! We took Jake and had a great day walking the trails, and Kayla had so much fun climbing the all the big rocks and bringing the little ones home!

St. Patty's Day Parade











We went to the St. Patricks Day parade with some friends of ours Saturday morning. Alan's sister went with me and Alan got to leave work early to meet me. Kayla had sooo much fun seeing all the big floats, fire trucks, police men, and not to mention all the intresting looking people. :-) Both of the kids had a blast, even Brayden with all the beads, he 'caught' and even a little football! I think we have a football player on our hands. We left before it got too crazy, but we had fun!

Awwwww


I had to share this. The boy in the picture next to Kayla is Cole. She comes home from school talking about him everyday!! She can't stop talking about him! I think he is sooo cute!! I think it's sweet she has a little boyfriend... daddy does not.

SPP Easter Egg Hunt






Kayla had her Easter egg hunt at school on Thursday and loved it!! She was a bit shy at first, not sure what she was supposed to do with all the eggs, but once she figured it out she was off! She wanted all the pink ones. And mommy brought yummy cupcakes with lots of frosting. Yeah, next time I will be bringing cookies! She had a great time. And I have taught her the meaning of Easter and why we have it. She says "Jesus died, for you and me, and rose again!" I could cry.

*Sigh*


And after a long day, finally. Peace. Sweet isn't it??

Hello??




And there's my sweetie. I feel so bad, lately with all the milestones her brother is reaching all the focus seems to be on him. But she's still my little angel, and I couldn't adore her more. She cracks me up. Tonight she wanted to call her daddy to say goodnight. These were all taken while the phone was ringing, she was so excited he might answer!! When she got to say goodnight, she was a happy girl. My girl on the phone, a sign of things to come.

Oh my Oreo






Later that day, Brayden came bolting across the floor when I broke out the cookies. I know, I know you're not supposed to give chocolate until a year, but lets face it, Bray eats a lot of things he's not supposed too! He loved every minute of it too. Although it was fun, not recommended, what a mess!!

Peek-a-Boo





This kid started crawling what, a week or so ago? My word, you set him down and he is off! I set him down, ran out of the room and he managed to make it 2 rooms over!! And then he thought he could 'hide' behind the curtain. And then was looking to "get out". He's going to be a hand full isn't he?

Mirror, Mirror on the Wall




Who's the cutest of them all?

Snow! Almost.


Well we got cheated on the snow, I was so sad!! I was hoping and Kayla really wanted to go play, and all though it sleeted and we had a few flakes.... nothing. I saw the snowmen in Frisco and McKinney and I couldn't believe it! Maybe next year. :-(

Brayden Crawls!

I'm so excited! I must say I sound a little crazy! :)

Funny, I put down a stuffed animal, a couple toys... nothing. He sees a plastic chip and he's all over the place!!

**Brayden Crawls!!!!**






I am so super excited! My little man is crawling! And not the army crawl he's been doing for a couple weeks now. It's funny because he's been halfway doing it, and I found when I put some food down just out of his reach, he really gets motivated!! He crawled clear across the room, it was quite the distance! I'm so proud of him!
