Tribute to Brody

Brody had his six month pictures taken, they turned out so awesome as usual. Emily Utley is the best she always manages to get really great shots, even if my kids are being totally uncooperative. I thought that I would post a few shots on my blog because they are so cute. Oh and the new Brody updates, he is officially rolling from his back to his belly as of April 16th. When he is trying to get a toy he rolls back and forth until he can shimmy his way to reach it. He is full of smiles and loves to giggle. He seems to be getting more content the older he gets. He really is such a sweet heart just look at him!!!!

Dying Easter Eggs

Don't they look so adorable in their color coordinating Easter outfits. This is one for the memory books.
The kids had so much fun dying Easter Eggs. Here are Ethan and Addy with their finished products.


Yes even Brody got in on the fun.

Happy Easter

Making Easter bunnies with Grandma (yes that is a purple hostess snowball)
Yes the Easter bunny did bring super hero pj's
I am so glad that it stopped raining so that we could have an Easter Egg Hunt. I think Ethan got the most eggs.

Kindy 500

Ethan wanted his car to be a race car. He told me that it had to be 26 because that is an important Kindergarten number (26 letters, 26 sounds, 26 sight words.)
Check out the sweet rear view mirrors!!!!

Ethan's Kindergarten planned a day where they got to travel around the United States. They each made a car to drive from station to station. Ethan got to see a live falcon that flew around the gym. He also got to see a Bald Eagle. They had several stops along the way, such as Mt Rushmore and The White House. Ethan thought this was an awesome day.

February Fun

Ethan's Birthday Pizza cake. He ate five pieces

Since February is over I thought I would post some pictures to recap the month.

5 Months Old Today

Brody is five months old today. He is growing so fast. He is full of smiles all the time now. He always has to be in the middle of the action. He was a mama's boy for awhile, but now he is starting to think that dad is really cool too. He has been eating rice cereal for about a month now. Also he is sleeping really great, I can put him to bed around 9:30 and then he wakes up between 5 and 6 to eat then he will go right back to bed. I feel like a real person again. He loves his little crinkly book and he can hold his rattles and shake them. He is so much fun to have around. Ethan and Addy still love the smother him with hugs and kisses.

Ethan's B-day Party

I am a little behind but I wanted to post some pictures from Ethan's party. We went to Chuck E Cheese's and had a blast. It was a great party because the kids were free to do what they wanted. Ethan has great friends, they were so cute and well behaved. The hardest part was trying to transport 13 kids. I drove our suburban and Jason had to borrow our neighbors suburban (thanks Studdert's). Every seat in both cars was occupied. Ethan wanted to thank everyone for coming and also thank them for his great presents. I would like to give a special thanks to the Alfonso's for helping us with crowd control. All in all the birthday was a success.
