Cedar Park Egg Hunt

This was Makena's last official year in the 0-3 age group at the Cedar Park Egg Hunt. She will be moving on up next year. Hopefully by then she will understand that you have to go get the eggs. She can't understand why no one stops and watches her get the eggs.

Bunny Breakfast

We were lucky enough to get tickets to the Nordstrom's Bunny Breakfast this year. We got both kids dressed in their Easter finest and had breakfast with the Easter bunny and got to do some kid friendly activities in the store. Makena wouldn't sit in his lap and still wanted Mom nearby for the picture, but she did give him a High Five. Marshall just wanted to grab the Bunny.

Growing Up

A couple of weeks ago Marshall graduated to sitting in the big shopping cart with Makena. He LOVED it. The downside was it took me 15 minutes to "sanitize" the cart before I put him in it. He puts everything in his mouth and I wouldn't take any chances. The other customers in HEB thought I was crazy taking pictures of my kids in a shopping cart, but what can I say, it was a big day for us.

Makena's Prayer

Before bedtime last night, Makena prayed and I just had to share. Every once in awhile her prayers are too sweet.

"Thank you Jesus for being my sweet friend and for letting mommy tell me to listen. Bye God, Amen."

San Antonio Livestock Show

With Nathaniel starting to work Saturdays right now, I am always looking for something fun to do with the kids. Grandma and Grandpa Mark like to go to the San Antonio Livestock Show, so we tagged along and had a good time. Makena rode a pony, which never happens. I don't think she realized it was a REAL pony. She likes carousels and I am pretty sure that is what she thought she was riding.

Valentine's Day 2010

The kids enjoyed opening their Valentine bags last Sunday morning. Makena is really starting to "get" all the traditions and it is fun to experience them with her. They each have a special Valentine bag and on Valentine's day they get to open all the cards they get from mom & dad, Grandma & Grandpa, Nana & Papa, aunts & uncles, etc. Plus, there are always a few sweet treats and other little surprises. It was tricky getting Marshall a bag this year. Pottery Barn Kids sold out of these Jan. 9!! So, I had to get on a waiting list and luckily we got one!

Mom was lazy this year, so we let them open their bag and valentines in our bed.

Marshall at 6 Months

A little late, but better than never. Marshall was 19 lbs. 13 oz. and 28.5 inches long at his 6 month well check. He is a big boy!
