Happy Easter

Happy EASTER from our family to yours!

We started Easter festivities yesterday at Nanny and Grandads.

Baa got an egg hunt in order for the boys.

When we got home, Me and Crockett had a surprise for Colt in the back yard.

We let Colton sleep in our room Christmas Eve and when he heard the Easter Bunny was coming he insisted he had to sleep in our room again. 

Easter Bunny came!

He came, and left part of his tail in the back yard.  No one really wanted anything to do with it.

Colt read his new book to brother.

My attempt at a picture...

...Not gonna happen.

I searched hi and low for confetti eggs and found the last box at Kroger this morning. 

We had so much fun with them.

So blessed with this family.

We headed over to Gaga and Pawpaws for lunch.

Colt started a huge grass fight.

And cracked a few more eggs.

What a special Easter weekend!  

Children's Festival

Last weekend we went to the Children's Festival in downtown Houston with my cousin and her family. Colton, unfortunately, was a bit cranky but toward the end started to warm up.  We had a fun time none the less.

B

Over the past few weeks we've seen a lot of "B" (Barrett, my cousin's little boy).

Colton absolutely loves B.  Although he lives right across the street we don't always get to see him but when we do hang out both of the boys play so well together. 

About a month ago we went to A Bunch Of Fun.  It was such a neat neat place with so much for the boys to play with.

 Then, last week we met up at Monkey Business.  

Colton has really enjoyed hanging out with B lately.  And, when we don't see him, Coltons imaginary friend "B" comes to play.    ;)We have a lot more fun with the real B.

First Field Trip

Today Colt and I went on his first Field Trip. His preschool class met up at Bear Creek park for playing, egg hunting and a picnic.It started out as a cloudy misty day but turned out to be just beautiful!
Colton enjoyed the TWO playgrounds with lots to climb and about 10 slides.

 He refused to take a picture with me.

 Swinging with Cooper from Mrs. Morgan's class.

 Getting ready for the egg hunt.

He was timid at first and wanted to make sure I was there with him but he had no trouble picking up 12 eggs.

 Still not cooperating for a picture.

 And, REFUSED to take a class picture.  Notice the hole. If I was better at photo shop, I'd crop him in. 

 Picnic lunch with Josiah and Case (across the table).

 He had the best time with Zach and Josiah after lunch.  They played so hard and laughed so loud!

And, one last attempt at a staged picture.  

Not happening!

10 Months

 CHASE,

Today you are 10 months old.  2 months from your first birthday and I can't believe how fast the time is going.  You are such a joy and blessing in our lives and we love you so much.

You have been so busy this month.  Here are some of the things you're up to.

Look at those curls!

You are still wearing size three diapers.  You wear 9 or 12 month clothes.

YOu wave feverishly at people and you get so excited about it.  You also love to clap and you sign the word "more" when you are eating.

You are sleeping pretty well.  You go down about 8 pm and get up between 6 and 7 am. The past week or so you have been having trouble getting comfy after your last feed.  You wiggle and squirm making our last cuddle time for the day tough.  You usually take two naps in the day.  One around 9:30 or 10 and a longer one around 1. Sometimes you skip your first nap. You are starting to sleep in your crib at nap time but you have to be asleep when I lay you down.

You sleep well while you are sleeping but I don't think you are going to be as good of a sleeper as your brother.

When you wake in the night, as long as your are comfortable and okay, we let you cry it out and it really seems to work.

You like to play with your books and toys but you really like people to stay around you.  

You started crawling and there is NO stopping you now!

 You

You only take formula from Nanny. 

Your daddy calls you Mr. Wiggles because you wiggle and squirm when we try to get you dressed or change your diaper.

You are a happy little guy and you are always smiling.  

Even though you're on the go you love to sit with us and cuddle.  

 You stand unassisted for a few seconds.

You pull up on things with a little help.  Once you're up you love standing and playing.

Your brother entertains you so much.  You are always smiling and laughing at him.  Unless hes ripping a toy out of your hand.  Which he does quite often.

You have had a really runny nose and and lots of drool this month.  We keep thinking those top teeth will come in soon but you still only have two!

You love table food. You love crackers, mc n cheese, and  banana the best.  You don't love tomato or watermelon.  

A lot of days you skip at least one jar of baby food because you eat table food.

You love books but you don't let us read them to you.

You bite! I just know you are going to be a biter.  

You love being outside.  You love to have the wind blow through your hair.

Everyone comments on your bright blue eyes.  They are beautiful!

When you eat on your own you shove food in your mouth with the palm of your hands.  You are so good at feeding yourself and so cute to watch. You look so happy when you get a big yummy bite.

We are working on a sippie cup.  You are not really good at getting anything out of them and usually just flip it upside down and play with the bottom of the cup.

You are so stinkin' cute!

You are amazing.  You make everyone who meets you smile.  You are a joy and the biggest blessing. We love you with all of our heart.  Happy double digits baby boy!Love, Mommy
