Brooklynn's 1st Easter (I know I'm late)!

Brooklynn had such a wonderful 1st Easter! She loved her Easter basket that was full of books, bubbles, a stuffed animal, and eggs filled with yogurt melts (sorry Bird, but mommy and daddy are mean and won't let you have candy:)! She looked so pretty at church in her Easter dress, and had so much fun seeing her cousin Kaleb, Auntie Jessic, Uncle Tommy, and Grandpa Delbert! After church, we went to Grandma Renee's house to cook out and visit with daddy's side of the family, and then we left from there and went to Grandma Julie's house to eat again! We had such a great day, and we just love our little Bird so much!

Brooklynn was so happy with her Easter basket:

Brooklynn had so much fun swinging at Grandma Renee's house! We had to go to Wal Mart and buy a swing just like this to hang at our house because she loved it so much!

We have a WALKER!!!

Our little Bird is spreading her wings...haha! She's just not content with crawling anymore and is trying out her walking feet! I got her on video walking across the kitchen on Tuesday night (this is the best she's done as of yet)! We're so proud of her! I can't believe she's growing up so fast! Please take note as to how Georgia is trying to steal Brooklynn's biter biscuit...silly dog! Haha!

Learning to Walk: Not all fun and games!

We bought Brooklynn a little baby learn-to-walk toy. She can walk behind it and push it,and it plays music as she walks. Well, she loves this thing! Haha! She'll push it all over the place! The only problem is that once she hits a wall, or the dog, she hasn't figured out how to turn it so she can keep going. Or, if she falls she can't get back up by herself because it will roll away from her. Oh, and how the crying begins if we don't immediately run over and stand her back up and clear the path for the baby walker! Our household motto: "kids wanna do what kids wanna do!" or else! Haha!
Walking is so much fun:

"Now, how do I get back around..."

"Daddy! Mommy! This is so NOT fun anymore!"

Helping Mommy Plant Flowers!

Today was so beautiful and I decided to go ahead and plant flowers in the pots that we keep outside (okay, everyone keep your fingers crossed that we don't have anymore winter weather:)! I put a blanket down for Brooklynn and surrounded her with toys and we enjoyed the Spring weather together! I got dirty and Bird quietly observed (okay maybe she wasn't too quiet...we all know Bird and her lungs...haha). I really cherish Mommy and Bird time together, and this is just another day that I never want to forget.

Brooklynn Met the Easter Bunny!!!

Today me, Michael, Grandma Renee, and Brooklynn went to the mall to meet the Easter Bunny! We were a little aprehensive...ever since we took her to meet Santa Claus and she wasn't exactly excited...haha! I think she thought that the Easter Bunny was a big dog, like her Georgia dog. So, after grabbing and petting the bunny's face, she sat on his lap and smiled like a champ! We got an awesome picture on the second shot! Yay! I felt sorry for the mommies there who's babies were screaming when they were put on the bunny's lap...I was, however, thrilled that B wasn't one of those!

Brooklynn's 1st St. Patrick's Day!

Happy 1st St. Patrick's Day, Brooklynn! We got her all dressed up for school in her special St. Patrick's Day outfit (thank you, Daddy:). She was adorable! Too bad she had a 'tude' while we were trying to get her picture! Haha! We had to bribe her with Daddy's cell phone!

Dina's 1st Birthday!

Brooklynn's cousin, Dina, celebrated her 1st birthday at ChuckECheese on Sunday! We can't believe our adorable niece is already one! Gosh, where does the time go? We had so much playing with Brooklynn at ChuckECheese! Her other cousin, Kaleb, was there, too, and he was having a ball:)! It's always so great to get to see the family!

The birthday girl:


Make a wish!
