Happy Birthday Brent!

Okay so I am a couple days late for this post.....

April 20th was Brent's Birthday, he turned 31!

He is my best friend. He is the best partner I could ever ask for. He is a good provider. He is a thoughtful husband. He is a hands-on Father. He adores his girls.

I love you.

A Climber and a Wiggle

You have got to watch this girl at all times!!


And here is my wiggle. When I tell her I like her hair she says "thanks mommy" and takes a bow....she is too funny.

Easter 2009

Easter Egg Hunt at Mimi's

Coloring eggs. She really enjoyed it this year.

Easter morning.

Camdyn's 1st Easter....didn't start off too well.

We are a family of four but one of us has to work. We appreciate that but we miss him too!

Mimi and her girls.

Camdyn and her Godmother Rachel.

Camdyn enjoying her 1st Easter Egg Hunt.

Brynn the serious Egg Hunter...notice she shakes the egg to hear the candy inside!

Camdyn: 11 months

I am dedicating a whole post to Camdyn and Camdyn only....since you know 2nd children get the shaft.....uhm speaking from experience!!
I look at how many pictures we took of Brynn compared to how many we take of Camdyn......and I am sure it will only get worse down the line.

I am trying to decide what to do for her 1st birthday invites and I have been taking many many pictures of her. They were too cute so I had to share.
This girls is happy, but she is a handful!! If she doesn't want to do something she throws a fit, arching her back, screaming.....but I can't deny that she is as cute as a button. And she has the most adorable giggle.

She definitely has some attitude or should I say temper? Maybe it's that 2nd child personality shining through!

28th Birthday

It was my 28th Birthday on Saturday the 11th and we celebrated it with tons of Easter activities for the girls. For those of you with kids you know that your kids always come first, even if it's your birthday.....but really I wouldn't have it any other way! My girls bring me so much joy I couldn't imagine life without them.

We started the day off on a good note going to my favorite place, Mama Margies, for breakfast before Brent had to go into work. Then the girls and I headed out to Boerne to go to an Easter Festival at my Aunt Becky's church. It was awesome!! They had tons of crafts, games, a petting zoo, pony rides, and of course an easter egg hunt.

Here is Mimi torturing Camdyn (trying to get her hand prints)!

Feeding the animals. Brynn got a kick at how the goats would stick their heads out so far. She said they were trying to get out.

She is an animal lover.

Overflowing with eggs....as usual. This girl loves to egg hunt.

Riding the 'train'.

Cowgirl Brynn.

Happy Birthday to Me!!

(Brynn was very happy to eat some cake! I am sure Cam would have loved some too, however she was exhausted after our busy day and was already in bed fast asleep!)

The Big Cut

After

Mickey & Minnie on Ice

Brynn and I went to see Mickey and Minnie and friends on ice. It was so awesome!! This was our first ice show experience and I was very impressed. She loved it, of course! Besides the Mickey Mouse gang we also saw Lion King, Little Mermaid, Lilo & Stitch, & Peter Pan (which was definitely our favorite)!

Cayden, Brynn, & Cooper waiting for the show to begin.

All smiles for Mickey.

Her Latest Obsession

The Wiggles.

I know, you're probably saying The Wiggles?! Really?!? I use to think I wouldn't let my children watch them either.

They sing.

They dance.

So she loves them.

And of course her favorite is, in my opinion the creepiest one of all, Jeff aka the purple Wiggle.

She is so obsessed with Jeff that she has taken on his name! Everyday all day if we call her Brynn she'll correct us and say "it's Jeff"! This morning when she woke up she said "Jeff is awake" then we went into Camdyn's room and she said "oh look Sam (yellow wiggle) is awake too".

I love this girl!

Spring Break Extravaganza

Whew all this spring breaking and I am WORN OUT!!

Not to mention that my kids aren't even in school yet!!

We celebrated three spring breaks in a row.

First we kicked it off with Wade's break which included Peter Piper Pizza, shopping, eating, and dinner with Jordan.

Then it was Reid's break. Kyle and her kids came into town for four days and we packed a lot in. Children's museum, Zoo, and Sea World, not to mention a lot of eating.

We finished it up with Kirby and her kids. We went to Sea World again and also did some shopping and went to the park. Oh yeah also more eating.

I am a stay at home Mom, my Kids are not in school yet, and I am sick of spring break! I am sick of all the traffic and I am sick of eating out so much (I cannot believe I just said that)!

But we did have lots of fun with our family.

Zoo pictures

Brynn and the bears.

Mimi and the kids.
Brynn LOVED the petting zoo. She could have stayed in there all day just brushing those goats and she would have been a very happy girl. Too bad Mimi still doesn't have goats at her house!

If I were a butterfly...

The gang before the train ride.

Ms. Conductor

Don't feed the lions!

Children's Museum
Milking the cow.

Doing the grocery shopping.

Two lovely cows.

Reid and Brynn in the bubble machine (whatever you call this thing). All the kids love it.

Cam chilling in the stroller, she thinks the museum is super fun!

Driving the bus.

Camdyn and McKlayne trying to get into trouble on the stairs.....I am sure there will be many years of trouble when these two are together.

Can you believe that these are the only pics I got while Kirb was in town?! I was so good when Kyle was in town but then I took my camera out of my bag and that was it. I didn't even get one picture of Brynn and Asher together!! They played so well together, it was wonderful! And they can communicate with each other so it's neat to watch them interact. Every where we went people thought they were twins!!

Now I need to recover! Lots of sleep and time to clean my house since I neglected it for so long.

Can't wait for next year!
