The Saturday Before Easter

Since Aunt Kathy and Uncle Mike were down visiting for Easter weekend, we spent the day hanging out at Grammy and Poppy's house. It was a BEAUTIFUL day and it's was the first time of the season for B&B to wear shorts and play outside with NO shoes! They had a BLAST and are lovin' this spring weather!

Could NOT resist buying my little man this shirt at the rodeo!

You better obey his shirt and lock up your daughters because they are going to be after this handsome little hunk!!

WINK, WINK!

Daddy standing near while Burkley pets Akasha!

Snack time!

Monkey see, monkey do!

Sister girl!

Her shorts...well those are the ones that she wore last summer when she was 5-8 months old. They are 3 months and fit her PERFECT!!

Tiny little thing!

Playing with Poppy's stuff!

And her new trick...throwing herself down on the floor while she pitches a little hissy!

Checking out the chickens!

Brooks didn't want to get too close this time around because one mean chicken pecked his little finger earlier in the day!

Sister posing in front of Grammy's iris...and not wanting Grammy out of reach!

Easter...Part I

Oh my word...we had the BEST Easter! It was super busy, but Brooks and Burkley did great! I'm in the process of editing the million pictures I took over the weekend and I will upload them (probably into a slide show) just as soon as I can. I'm tired, the babies are tired, and I'm trying to catch up on laundry and everything else...so please hang in there! Here's a picture of my little Easter bunnies this year and last year just for comparison! Wow...what a difference a year makes!

My New Craft

I just wanted to share my new craft with all of you.

I saw this idea several weeks ago, fell in love, and knew I could do it.

This picture of B&B has always been my favorite, so I knew I wanted to use it.

It was taken on the day that B&B were reunited after being separated for 12 LONG days while Burkley was in the NICU.

Isn't it sweet?!?!

This one in particular is a 2X2 and I also have a round tile and a long rectangular one as well.

It can be worn on any ribbon or leather necklace or it can be worn on a piece of bandanna like the one above to match any outfit (that seemed to be the "in" thing at the rodeo this year).

If you'd like a photo charm of your little one/s, just leave me a comment with your email and I will contact you.

Haircut, Haircut!

Somebody got his ears lowered today at Kool Cuts for Kids!

And he LOVED it this time (our last visit was post shots and he wanted nothing to do with it...cried the entire time and would not even sit in the firetruck).

But today, he sat in the firetruck, watched the silly guy in the video, rang the bell, played with the game controller, and watched his sister, Grammy, and mommy!

Pre cut #1
Pre cut #2

He even let her use the clippers...such a big boy!

Everybody watching!

Sitting just as still as ever!

Sister wanted to sit and play in the taxi next to her big brother!

Sweet and silly boy!

Look at that fat little finger pushing those buttons!

Getting a haircut makes a boy hungry!

I'm quite sure he just took a swig of lemonade for the first time with the face he is making.

And tryin' to get a good facial picture with him sporting his new trim job, but that wasn't going to happen...not even with a camera that is super fast!

He looks sooooo grown up and is just as precious as ever with his hair cut like a big boy!

And he knows it to because he's been so silly and making the cutest facial expressions!
