Three Down, One to Go!!

Today was the Windrose Playgroup Easter Egg Hunt, Anna's third one of the week!

Here are some of the kiddos getting instructions on how many eggs they can get. They sat very patiently!

Go get em!!



Sam found his Nemo egg and was happy the rest of the day. Thank you Aunt Jessie for coming along and helping us get eggs!
Anna still has her school party tomorrow and then I think the hunts are over!

She loves to ride rocking horses!

My Paparazzi Friends...




Yesterday we had a fun day at the park with our great friends. Thank you Jess for putting all of the eggs together for the kids! While I was going through the pictures Matt made a comment about the paparazzi being there. I had to laugh because that is exactly what it looked like! When we get together and the kids are being cute (which happens a lot with this bunch) the big cameras come out. I poke fun, but secretly hope to be an owner of one of these fabulous cameras one day! Thanks girls for forwarding me your great pics of my kids!

Elmo!






Matt's parents got Anna tickets to the Sesame Street Elmo show for her birthday. It was a couple of weeks ago in Baton Rouge. Anna was very serious at first but she warmed up pretty quick! We were very close to the stage and the characters came out onto the floor many times to wave to the kids and dance with them. Of course Anna would have none of that, but it was fun to watch the kids around us react! Thank you Nanna and Grandpa!

Spring Fling





This weekend our neighborhood had a Spring Fling. We decided to go check it out. Anna did NOT want a picture with the Easter Bunny so we have none of those. She was a little shy about the Egg Hunt. Not sure if she was really supposed to take the egs that weren't hers! After a little prodding she went and got TWO!! Then she took a train ride with Daddy. It was a good day. The kids took a nice nap!

Here is Sam later that afternoon. He carried that ball around like a dog for a while, and then just crawled up on Matt for a rest. He is a funny little boy!

Woo Hoo!


At least one of my children enjoys the swing. We went to the park yesterday with friends and Sam didn't scream (like a little girl I know) when I put him in the swing. Anna will ask to swing, but when you put her in it she smiles for a second and then screams to get out -EVERY TIME!!

Sam's Trick


He claps!! He will even put down the club to do it :)

Sam's Club!

First it was the green spoon...



Now it is the orange club. He doesn't go anywhere without it! He cracks us up!! You can always hear him coming on the tile floor, and now he goes into our room and bangs it on the office door when Matt is in there. Too cute!

Anna's New Chair



Mary Grandma and Poppy Ed sent Anna money for her birthday, so I got her a new chair. The princess couch was great but it was getting pretty gross and losing stuffing, not to mention it was full of Sam slobber. He had quite a crush on the princesses of the couch!! It has her name on it and everything. She loves it!! Thank you Grandma and Grandpa B.

The Cow


So this week at school Anna has been having "Rodeo Fun". They talked about all the different animals and their sounds, they have been singing animal songs, making trail mix, all that fun stuff! Thursday the teacher brought in a rocking horse for the kids to play on. Anna LOVED it. She had to be removed from it and we left kicking and screaming all the way down the hall. It was so bad the teacher offered to load it into my car and let me take it home for the week! Can you tell she is a little spoiled by her teachers at school? It was sweet but I said no thank you! She needs to learn when it is time to go, it is time to go. So last night we went to Lupe Tortilla and there is this cow there that she HAD to ride. She really wanted it to rock, but she just couldn't get it to move! She had fun, and it wasn't as bad as the rocking horse episode when we had to leave.

Sam's Check Up

Sam is now nine months old and today we went for his well-visit. I don't have any pictures because my camera is dead, and the computer still isn't hooked up right anyway for me to download pics. I don't get much computer time, but hopefully that will change soon and I can get back to blogging...

Anyway, Dr. P said Sam looked great! His weight was 19 pounds 2 ounces,and height was 28.5 inches. He was happy until she measured his head and said it was small, then he poked out his bottom lip and started to cry. It was pretty funny! Anna was there and when he got his shot and started to cry, she got very upset and came rushing over to him. She was tearing up, it was very sweet. She may yell at him from time to time, but she LOVES that little guy. He adores her and lights up when he sees her. I LOVE to watch them together.

Okay, it is BBB time at our house, so I will go help. Pictures are coming soon. The weather has been great and I can't wait to take some!
