Legoland



Daddy was able to sneak away from work one day to head to Legoland with us. The boys have been begging to go for months, Dan included! We got to see how Legos are made. We rode through a cave shooting trolls, I think. The boys built a car and raced it. Meredith played in brick size duplos. The boys' favorite part was the 4D movie. The reason it was their favorite part was because we got wet!

Bluebonnets



Every year we head to Grapevine to take pictures. I took a ton myself for presents for the fam. They always turn out so cute if you can get the kids to focus for 2 seconds. This year, the flowers weren't very good due to all the hail storms. However, Heather from Chunky Monkey Photography was able to get a few good shots of them.

Easter Continued...







After the Easter Egg Scramble, we went home to dye eggs. The boys loved getting to dip/drop the eggs in the dye. Their daddy is so good with them when we do all the festive activities. Easter weekend we had some family come see us. Betty, Bruce, Alex and Lauren came over on Saturday to have an Easter Egg Hunt. After finding lots of eggs and stuffing their faces full of candy, the kids wanted to go play ate the park. We all had lots of fun spending the weekend together. We even went over to church with them on Sunday. What a great Easter weekend!

April has been busy!



Lots of t-ball. 2 games a week! One during the week and one every Saturday. Can't imagine how my mom did it with 4 kids.






We have redone the front flower bed. Dan ripped everything out and we planted new shrubs and laid stone. After that we sodded in front of it and have to continually water it so it will take root. The boys have found this to be their new favorite place to play because the sprinkler is always running.



Meredith turned 10 months old this month. She is starting to take steps. She has no fear so she gets right back up and tries again. She's a climber too. She will climb into window sills and stand and in chairs and stand up too. She is also very sneaky. Dan has nicknamed her the bandit because she will steal the boys toys while they aren't looking.



On April 16th, after Cameron's game we went to eat at Arby's. Then we were off to the Easter egg scramble. The boys got to be on the smae field. We barely made it in time before the firetruck blew their horns. As soon as they did, the kids were off to get candy and eggs as quickly as possible. The boys came home with a loot. Meredith was not happy about having to stay in the stroller till it was over. She wanted to get down and hunt too.

March in a Nutshell!

So I know I've slacked on keeping up with the photos and blogs. I'll be honest it's been a tough couple of months and now that things are better I figured I'd go back hit the high points. Please forgive me for being such a slacker.


Cameron has continued to practice t-ball and we have all enjoyed watching and getting to play at the park.

Meredith has started pulling up and walking along furniture. She turned 9 months old. She's starting to talk more. She weighs over 20 pounds and is about 28 in. tall.







My parents got to come in town to visit. One of the days, nana and I took the kids to the arboretum and saw all of the castles. The kids had so much fun.

Cameron had his first t-ball game. He had quite a cheering section between both families. He was the lead off batter and when he hit the ball he started running to third. He had never done that in practice. I guess it was the pressure of the game. It was so much fun getting to see him play!
