The Easter Bunny is Hopping to Town!

Lately Im starting off these posts with a funny picture or 2. So here it is! Andrew has begun to want to be almost naked. I guess we are going to see alot of skin this summer ;)

Its almost Easter and all sorts of srping things are begining to happen. The weather is turning almost hot instead of mild. Anymore mild describes Feb!

So our town paper hosted an Eggstravaganza downtown this past Sunday and Andrew had a blast. He didnt quite understand why he couldnt pick up the eggs right away but it only took a few minutes and he was able to run off with the pack in search of the perfect egg. No really there was a "golden" one hidden somewhere in the bunch.


Colin our neighbor as there too. Here Andrew was still pretty ticked he couldnt pick up any of the eggs.

& theyre off!


Look @ my basket Mommy!
Love this pic of him! I may have to get it developed...and if you know me I havent done that in almost 6 months!


Oh look there's candy in there!


Next up was the Easter Bunny. Tim was a little creeped out by him, but Andrew did well. I agree....he does look a little scary.


After we all took our naps, it was time to dye eggs. Andrew wasnt patient at all. He stuck it out for the first round but while they dyed he got bored. He did enjoy the stickers though!


& this is what Andrew enjoys doing these days. Plays with Zeke. They have their bonding time at least once a day. Someone is like his Daddy when it comes to cats!


Lots of visitors and Easter fun this weekend. Should be wonderful weather wise too. Ah....loving life!

Wheres the Camera? Get me the Camera!

So I can highlight Andrews highwaters ;)

Yeah I know....its pitiful right? Well when hes still wearing 18 month clothing and is of course over 2 years old thats what happens.

When he stands up there isnt an issue ;) Its just highlighted nicely in this photo. Oh well. Being outside play clothes were in order. But I did get the camera out and snap some good pics since it was so nice outside. Our yardwork was calling so we all headed outside this weekend....practically the whole weekend. Loved it!

Im glad I got a few good shots of him upclose. Its been a while. We have such a little boy on our hands!

This past weekend was gorgeous! Windy but gorgeous! tshirt weather or a light jacket. We had tons to do in the yard so we all headed outside first thing in the morning and got to planting! Andrew helped me plant Morning Glories. We've planted then every year since he was born....and they kind of remind me of him now. Just wish they were year round.


Final prodcut! Can we go in for lunch now? :)


That night we headed out to a truck and tractor pull. We were able to pull our truck into the pits so we could sit and enjoy the view in comfort. We didnt get there soon enough for first row but 2nd worked out fine, esp when you have the best seat around...Daddys shoulders!


It got loud & chilly. But it really wasnt unbearable. This little guy really had a good time!


Funny photo of the week! Safety first - in the house no less! ????

Dirt, Trucks, & More Dirt

But before we get to that!

Andrew is still doing alot of this! Yay!!!!! Hes pretty much day trained now, and is getting better and better at going out and about with no accidents. We are still prepared but regardless hes doing a fantastic job. I wasnt sure it would be this easy....but things have just happened so naturally! I have a full fledged little boy these days. Gone is my baby.


From the last post you can tell its getting warmer and we are getting the itch to get outside more and more. Andrews little buddy Ryan turned 3 this weekend so we went out to celebrate! The Douglas's live on one end of the wilderness and we live on the other. So it takes a good hour to get there. But the boys had a blast and it was worth it!


"So? How big is your truck? How fast can it go?" Ah the conversations ;)


On our way back.....trying my best to get him to nap. This is what I get instead. Stickers on his nose!


While we were in the neighborhood we had to stop off and see little Lynlee and family. Andrew finally got to hold her. I think they both did pretty well.


Hes trying his best to play peek a boo. Such a sweet boy!


All in all things are busy, and Andrew is just growing and growing. Nothing big planned for the next several weekends. Time to enjoy the outdoors and save up all the energy for the summer trips and boat rides! Its all jsut around the corner!
