Calgon, take me away!

Avery's favorite time of day is bathtime! She likes to wind down after a busy day of sleeping, eating, and observing.

Hoppy Easter!

After church this morning we headed to Uncle Cody and Aunt Amy's for lunch. Aunt Lindsay and Clifton also came over. After lunch we all went to our house for the kids' naptime, and they both slept for about two hours at the same time which is so rare and awesome! So we got to enjoy some kid-free relaxing and game-playing. The Easter bunny paid a visit during naptime so Aidan had a bunch of eggs to find when he woke up. He also found a few for Avery.

Easter Bunny - Minus Aidan

Aunt Amy and I took the kids to see the Easter Bunny today and Aidan did NOT want any part of it. In his defense, this Easter Bunny is a little crazy-looking. I guess it's good because Avery has her very own "First Easter" picture just like Aidan did last year.

Happy St. Patrick's Day

From our two good luck charms!

Corinne

We have received some sad news today that our friend Corinne, who is a little older than Aidan, was diagnosed with acute leukemia. Corinne's mommy Jen is a friend of mine from college. They live in Houston and are at MD Anderson Hospital where they will be undergoing treatment. Here is a website that has been set up with information and updates. Please pray for Corinne, her parents, and the doctors and nurses that will be treating her. We love you Corinne!

P is for Papi

Papi came to stay with us on Monday night between business trips, and what Papi visit is complete without mexican food and guacamole dipping?

Our pathetic excuse for snow...

We've had a winter blast in Texas but I guess most of the snow fell north of us. Here is Aidan walking around in what we did get. We were only outside for about two minutes before we got bored and came back inside. It's already completely melted except a little in the shade. Lame!

Aidan's School Picture

Here is Aidan's latest school picture. I remember having a crayon backdrop once when I was in school. Some things never go out of style ;) Aidan's doing great and can count to ten (I have a video but I'm having trouble uploading it)! He is starting to test his boundaries with us a little and has become familiar with his time-out spot in the dining room. Despite that, he continues to be a sweet boy and makes us laugh every day!

The Brooks Family

On Saturday we drove from Crawford to Waco to hang out with the Brooks family, including new addition Baby James. He is 5 days younger than Avery (they were SUPPOSED to have the same birthday, but if you remember, Avery was a little impatient!). Jenna and I went to the Spirit Shop to get some new Baylor shirts for the kids and then we tried our best to take a few pictures. We had a lot of fun with them. They are moving from Austin to Waco soon so we are so excited they will be living closer!

Fun in Crawford

The kids and I went to Daddy's office on Friday, and from there we went to Crawford to see Grandpa, Nanna, and Jacob. There is a lot of room to run and play so Aidan had a great time. He got to see Kathleen's horses up close and play with Bogey and Pippen the dogs. He is such an outdoor boy - he plays very hard, then sleeps very hard :) Avery loved her first trip out of town and took a nice nap on Grandpa's chest this morning.
