Bluebonnets

We went to Round Rock this weekend to celebrate my nephew's 3rd birthday! We had a great time & Brayden met a little girl that he followed around for awhile. He hugged her a few times, would not let go of her and then they both layed down on the mats for a short rest- it was the cutest thing until he tried to bite her- haha! (I am hoping he was really trying to kiss her though instead of biting- ha!)

We also got some Bluebonnet pics thanks to my SIL, Lindsay. She does such an awesome job taking pictures for me- loves you Lindsay! :) Here are just a few of my favorites....











It was drizzling the whole morning & Brayden had not taken a nap yet, so I didn't have high expectations for how he would do- which is why I let Bailey wear whatever. But he ended up doing wonderful & cooperated so well & a small part of me wishes I had made Bailey change his shirt before we left. Luckily for us though, Bailey looks good in grungy old shirts- so the family pics still turned out good! ;)

Anyway- we had an awesome weekend & I can't believe Jacob is 3! We are hoping to make it out to the zoo soon & I am counting down the days until summer...I can't wait! :)

Happy Easter!

We had a great 3-day weekend and it has made me that much more ready for summer! We had plans to go to the zoo on Friday, but yet again they were plans that were not kept. Bailey was supposed to get off work early & then we were going to go, but he did not get off work until 2...soo by that time it was kind of a wash to even head out there. Maybe ONE day soon we will actually make it out to the zoo...oh well!

Saturday we headed up to Bryan for the day to spend time with the Allen clan & had such a great time. Bailey's grandma came in town and she had not seen Brayden since the summer, so it was nice for her to be able to spend some time with B. His Aunt, Uncle and some cousins from Waco came down as well and all of Bailey's sisters were in town and so that meant all of the cousins were together and it was a nice treat. Of course, I failed to get ANY pictures which I am totally bummed about, but one day soon I will. Bailey managed to snap a few pictures of the egg hunt, but he is basically fired from camera duty! :)

Then on Sunday we went to my Aunt Missy's house to spend time with my family & had a great time there. Some of my family had not yet seen Brayden, so it was nice for them to finally meet as well. Of course Brayden was totally happy because not only were there stairs for him to go up & down on, BUT there were 2 puppies for him to love on! :)

Friday I thought it would be a good idea to do a 'practice round' of egg hunting & B thought it was a better idea to wear his hat as a basket! :)

The hunt is on...



As soon as he found some crayons- he was done with the eggs!

B's Easter Basket!

Shakin' the eggs..

Mm...cheerios!
B is for Brayden!

He wanted to try it on!

It fit great! ;)
This face cracks me up-haha!

So as I said- it was a great weekend spent with our wonderful family! :) I think Brayden likes the Easter bunny especially because he was left cheerios & vanilla wafers..ha!
