first easter with 3


what a wonderful Easter weekend! we had a low key Easter but fun nonetheless. saturday we decided to take advantage of the wonderful weather & spend the day in twin shopping for a lawn mower- actually the real reason we went was to eat at Prasai's...the best thai food ever, but we did make it to home depot to do some pricing. we ended the day with a nice walk around our wonderful neighborhood and a movie after brogie fell asleep. sunday was craziness! it seems no matter how early i wake up on sunday, i'm going to miss my first church meeting! we had great plans to go listen to our good friend speak in another ward @ 9..no such luck! brogie had other plans. we did, however, make it to sunday school but brogie didn't like that idea either, so jake spent the class time in the hall...he didn't complain! Sacrament meeting is always wonderful on easter, the primary sang & it was so great,  the Spirit was strong & in our hearts all day. after church, we rushed to my aunt's for a bit & watched the kiddos' hunt eggs, then off to grandma b's for another egg hunt & yummy dinner. after food & fun at grandma's we headed back home & spent the rest of the night playing outside, taking long walks & visiting with neighbors. brogie's first easter was wonderful even though he has already forgotten! i was bummed that we didn't get a family easter picture, but i got some of little brogie & all his loot! he's cuter to look at anyways!

from mom & dad.


























everything goes straight to his mouth!













so spoiled & couldn't care less! he did enjoy the tag on

the death of me

is it just me or is this the best easter candy in the world? easter needs to come & go so i will stop eating these! just thought i'd share in hopes that i'm not the only one who is willingly packing on the pounds with these amazing little things!

3 Months

here i am again, this must mean another month has come & gone. my handsome man turned 3 months old March 26th. not sure why i'm still so surprised that time goes this quickly! he is so much fun & i still can't get enough of him! here are a few things he's up to:
everything goes straight to his mouth, rattle, burp rags, mom's hand
he is slobbering a lot & ends up soaking his shirts sometimes!
still loves telling us his stories but he talks longer, louder & alot more
does really well sitting up with something supporting his back
still loves his baths & is getting braver by kicking his little legs and waving his arms
has the biggest blue eyes
has the funniest facial expressions & raises his eyebrows
wants to walk more than anything
hates to cuddle
loves to stand with mom & dad's help
loves to practice taking steps
is finally sleeping through the night!!
no longer likes his passy
grabs his rattle
he now hates tummy time, but holds his head up really well
still tries to hold his bottle & does pretty well at it
he can also spot his bottle and stares at it, it's so funny!
i'm not sure of his stats just yet but he is definitely growing! his little pants are always too short and his shirts are baggy! he's just so skinny! his hair is growing on top and he is losing some of it on the back. i just love to love on him! & how could i forget--he loves his shades & thinks he's pretty cool while wearing them, oh how i love him!!









































in other news, i have been back to work for a month now. it was very difficult at first but is getting better. it's easier when little guy is sleeping when i leave him. he is in the best mood in the mornings so when he is awake he is talking and smiling and ready to play...that makes it really hard to leave! luckily, i only work 8-2 & my wonderful mother and mother in law watch him so i don't have to worry if he is ok. nothing else exciting going on, that's the life of a new mom! everything consists of brogyn & i wouldn't have it any other way. we have managed to go out on 2 dates though. both times we went to the movies, which is my favorite. spring planting is right around the corner...that winter just went way too fast! before i know it, it will be harvest again! easter is this weekend & i am so excited since it's brogie's first holiday. i got him some fun  things for his basket & i've decided this easter is more for me than for him since he has no clue what's going on, but it's still so fun!
