Easter and Everything Else Since we Last Blogged!

Easter morning gifts from the Easter Bunny! I'm already for the rain.

I know it's been a while since we've updated our blog. Between work, school and waiting for baby, life has been pretty busy. We are now entering week 38 of this pregnancy. We CAN'T wait any longer! Going to doctor's appointments four times a week gets pretty tiring, but the good news is that the doctors say the baby looks healthy and seems like just the perfect size and weight for 37 weeks. We go so often to do ultrasounds (3 a week) because the doctors have been worried about my size. Each time the baby is checked though, they assure us that everything looks great! We can never have enough ultrasound pictures (over 30 to be exact) and we never get tired of seeing and hearing the baby's heartbeat. Ryan is growing up so fast and has become a pro at peddling and making sand castles in his sandbox. We adore everyday with him and can't wait to see him with the new baby.

Cousins Steven and Samantha help me run to find at

least one egg. I think all the big kids got them.

I loved the Easter Bunny

Hunting for eggs in the front yard.

I've learned how to ride my bike and I'm really good at it. I only fell a few times...then mommy and daddy made me wear my helmet.

My favorite thing to do!

Lots to Blog About!

Well...my apologies to all my blogger friends and family! Life has been quite busy and has left little time to blog. So, that being the case, you get to read and see about all our family happenings all at one time. Let's see, this past weekend we went to Lake Havasu for the Eliminator Boat Regatta. We had lots of fun, especially because the weather was a perfect 95 degrees (the way summer should be). Grandma, Papa, Mrs. Monique and Mr. Jim went with us also. They have the cutest dogs! Our doggies stayed home where it was much cooler. We also celebrated Easter. I loved coloring and finding all the hidden Easter eggs. I'm also learning more words everyday. My favorite word as of this week is 'mine.' Mommy's not too fond of this word coming from my mouth either. I think everything is mine right now. I've also learned the words dogs, caca (as in poop), no no, and 'mo' for more. I almost always say thank you, and we're working on using the word please more. Mommy and Daddy have also been working with me to learn my body parts. I know where my nose, eyes, mouth, feet, hands and tummy are. I'm awesome at following directions too! It's like I learn something new every day!

Mommy plays with me too!

I like all the 'new' things I find in the sand.

I think I'm a better boat driver than Daddy.

Gotta mix it.

Quick! Roll up my sleeves.

I loved throwing the eggs in the dye.

All done, aren't they pretty?

Mommy's little dare devil! (I think he gets it from Daddy)

And here is my nose!

See my new kitchen? The Easter bunny dropped it off!

Eat your heart out Emeril!

I love to cook (like mommy)!
