Jealous much?

Happy Easter

They found the stone rolled away...
"Why do you look for the living among the dead?"
He is not here, he has risen!
Luke 24:2

What a beautiful Easter weekend!! We spent the weekend in Brazoria enjoying good food and family. And, of course, there was A LOT of Easter egg hunting!

Here is Gracie and Chuck getting ready for the "go signal" at the community egg hunt.


The kids were split into different age groups and there was a TON of eggs.

This Little Piggy....

Finally, after 4 months of This Little Piggy, 10 Little Indians, and any other number song that we can play with our toes... she finally found them, and she LOVES playing with them!






And, I finally got brave enough to try and bathe the girls together.... worked great, now that saves me about 15 minutes, and I have a little helper!!

Blog Debut #2

So, after helping my good friend Caroline with her blog (you can see it on the right), and remembering just how DARN CUTE they are, I decided to try it again. Maybe with a little more patience and a lot more time (come June :) I can keep up with it. As Caroline said, "It's like scrapbooking without the mess", and that's right up my alley! We haven't had much going on around our house, except for enjoying this ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL weather, so here are some pictures of our "adventures" (as Gracie calls them) outside.

Bubbles are an amazing thing, they can bring a smile anywhere, anytime!





































Gracie has become obsessed with the birdfeeder. She loves to fill it up and she will sit by the window for hours waiting on the birds to come. She must take after her Great-Grams a.k.a "the bird lady"



















Watering the plants

And sister in her swing, she wants sooooo bad to get out and play with Gracie!


Well.... that was successful! You can see the rest of the outside pictures on our shutterfly website in the March album.

Mommy's Little Helper

Gracie's new favorite activity is to push a chair up to the counter and "cook" with mommy. Anytime I am in the kitchen cooking, doing dishes, cleaning, whatever, she pushes a chair over there, climbs up, and gets her play dishes and starts cooking. She especially likes it when I give her a little bit of whatever I am cooking to put in her dishes. We are planning on getting her a play kitchen for Christmas, I really think she will enjoy it!

Don't worry, I move her to the other side when the oven is on!

She will eat just about anything I put in the dishes!

Toddlers are too funny!




















Toddler poker






This is Gracie's way of playing poker. She tries to stick as many chips as she can in between her toes, then she tries to stick them on her legs to see if they will stay. It is so funny to watch the way she plays with different things. Such an imagination!
