~EASTER 2008~

We had such a fun Easter! I love holidays and having a little one makes them much more fun. On Saturday we dyed eggs when Trent got home from work.

What a goof, and having so much fun!

Some of our eggs(Trent decorated these ones-beautiful!)

Briggs liked licking the eggs~everything taste so yummy

We peeled the egg after he bit into the shell and let him try it.....

"I don't know guys."


Yucky! He spit it out and was so upset.


On Easter morning we decided to make a little easter egg trail for Briggs to follow to his basket. Trent wasn't so sure it would work but, mom knows best and it did. He loved it he would pick one up, hold it up and show mom, turn around and put it in a basket dad was holding for him, and go for the next.

The jackpot at the end: lots more eggs(which was most of the highlight for Briggs) and a basketful of goodies.

The Basket


Check out my sweet shades! The Easter Bunny was smart and got two pair, bound to break one soon.

Some pictures in my new church clothes.

Check out this rock I found

I'm Out!

After we played around a bit we went to the Grandma Julie's and Grandpa Clint's for Breakfast. It was so yummy, thanks Grandma.

For lunch/dinner we went to Great- Grandpa & Grandma Belew's, also very good.

...Crawling...

So..It's been awhile we've been so excited it's warming up, Briggs and I go on walks alot and play in the yard. Now if only he wouldn't stick every leaf, piece of grass, and twig in his mouth we'd be doing just great. We went to the park a week ago and let Briggs play on the slide, he wasn't really sure what was going on but he really liked it. (sorry the pictures are bad they were on the phone)
FUNNY STORY, Briggs and I were at the store one night while Trent was closing up and so Briggs was just crawling around(Yes he is crawling now). There's nothing he can get into there so I wasn't real worried. Well of course next thing I know his face is covered in something brown, and when he smiled yep sure enough it was in his mouth as well. He had picked up dirt from somebody's shoe and ate it. I'm upset I forgot to get a picture because it was really quite funny, gravel and all.
So he's crawling and getting faster by the day he's hit his head numerous times, almost gone down the stairs, fallen of the bed, and of course has found the laundry shoot which I'm now terrified of. Need I say I need to do some baby-proofing. He's so much fun though, follows me everywhere if I don't have him baracaded in, which in that case he cries. So cute!


Our Little Cougar Fan! (thanks Grandma & Grandpa)


We took Briggs to the doctor a week or two ago and he's getting so big and doing great. He's fairly normal a little under: Stats: 28 inches long and 20lb. 5oz. People always say he's a really big baby and that he looks like he's a least a year. We've come to the decision that he's just really thick(not fat) which makes him look bigger I think. He's also got a huge head I can't remember how big but he was in like the 95th percentile. Means he's SMART right.


HOUSE UPDATE: We got all our electrical done in our family room. We added some recessed lighting, moved some switches to more appropriate spots, and added another light to the back yard. Thanks Buzz! We should have some more done but with the snow all gone we've been doing some much needed yard work. It never seems to end, but we love having a home.
