Baby Collagen...

Baby Collagen...also known as a very swollen upper lip. I've said it before, but she's just as coordinated as I am.

Happy Easter

Happy Easter! We started our day out by waking up a very tired little girl earlier than normal! She wasn't quite sure what was going on at first, but she eventually snapped out of it and enjoyed exploring the contents of her Easter basket. After a quick breakfast, we headed to early church and then over to Grammy and Grandpa's house for lunch. We hope everyone enjoyed their day and took time to remember the meaning of Easter!

Bluebonnets Take 2

We thought we'd try another shot at the bluebonnets. This time we made sure Ainsley's legs were covered to avoid any itchies that might make her mad. It didn't help, not even a bit. Here's what we did get.

My Girls

I hide behind the camera a lot, but thought I'd come out for a moment with my girls.

Amelia's First Boyfriend

Amelia met her first boyfriend this morning. Chase was born yesterday morning and is as cute as can be! Don't they both look so excited to meet each other?

Congratulations Christi, Brian and big sis Maddie!

Easter Egg Hunt #2

Evidently last night was just a warmup. This morning at daycare when Ainsley's teachers announced it was time to go outside she knew eggs-actly what was up. She immediately took off and got out the door about 4 kids and 3 moms in front of me and went to work filling her basket.

Easter Egg Hunt #1

Dustin braved the crazies at The Colony's Easter Egg Hunt this evening with Ainsley. He said she picked up the concept fairly quickly and came away with 8 eggs! No prize eggs, but she still had fun opening them up and pulling the candy out. She also was brave enough to give the State Farm Neigh-bear a high five. I guess the Easter Bunny hasn't permanately scarred her from liking big furry animals forever. However, I don't think she would have sat on his lap given the opportunity. Tomorrow she has an Easter egg hunt at daycare and I'm going to try to make it to take pictures.

(For those of you who don't live around here, notice how brown the sky looks in the pictures. That's from the wild fires west of here. I've only seen it liks this one other time when there was a grass fire north of us, but it wasn't this brown from what I remember. It was actually a beautiful blue sky day before this moved in.)

She's Got Skills

She's been working hard and has some skills to show off now! And she does NOT want our help. She kept her clothes clean the entire meal until she turned to see her daddy. Oh well!

Chilly!

It was a little chilly this afternoon, but we still got out for a bit after nap time to let Ainsley play.
