Easter Day 2011

Easter was really nice this year. The weather wasnt supposed to be very great so we didnt plan an Easter Egg Hunt but i bought some eggs and decorating stuff to decorate eggs with all the kids. :) We had both families over to our house to celebrate and it was really really nice! Kade, Porter and Dalton love to hang out so that is always fun for them. The boys played Corn Toss in the backyard while all the ladies hung inside and enjoyed some coffee and made brunch. We had German Pancakes with strawberries, whip cream, and maple syrup, bacon, quiche...Oh man it was soooo good! I cant wait for future Easter Egg Hunts and Braxton can look for eggs! That night we tried Rice Cereal for the first time with Braxton and he was not into it! :)

Today is the day after my very FIRST Mother's Day! I had such a great day spent with my little family! Braxton is almost 6 months old now and yesterday we discovered he has TWO TEETH! We had been watching his two lower teeth for about week now waiting for them to come through and yesterday morning at breakfast we noticed they are out!! He had a couple nights where he had a hard time sleeping, he was a little fussy but nothing bad and BAM! TWO TEETH! He is sitting up all by himself, sitting in his highchair and so far he is eating rice cereal and bananas. This week i think we will tackle come green beans...that should be fun after bananas! :) He is also rolling all the way over and always wants to be on his belly! The minute we put him on his back he rolls right over and pops up on his elbows/hands! We are thinking he will crawl very soon! He is such a sweet sweet baby and I could not imagine not being his Mom! I love being a Mom and watching him grow and learn! I love him so much I cant even put into words how neat this whole Mom thing is! He has an appt for his eczema and his previous problems with formula on Friday with an allergist and he will also be SIX MONTHS OLD on Friday too! My little man is getting so big! :) This is our first attempt at Rice Cereal...Not a fan! :) 4/24/2011
