The Boys












This week we have been fortunate to spend a lot of time with Ashley and the boys. We went to Thanksgiving Point and Vivie got to ride the pony for the first time. I thought she would be apprehensive, but she loved it!! Although it was freezing, so we didn't get much time at the farm. Then we headed south to our house where it was baking hot and they spent tons of time in the pool, which was also super fun!! It is so cute to watch them interact! The boys love her and she loves them back!!! Bentley is so good with her, he always watches out for her. He asks me if she can have a toy and proceeds to tell me that it is clean before he gives it to her (do you think all the adults around him are germaphobes or what?). They all just sit and laugh at eachother and Viv thinks she is super big just like them!! I can't leave Mollie out of this post because she got a brand new 'do this week!! I no longer own a bear... I own a lion!!

10 months



I know I say this everytime, but I can't believe she is 10 months!! Vivie has really grown up a lot over this past month! She crawls like a pro, you can barely keep up with her!! This last week she has learned to say "hi" very clearly and she waves while she does it (so cute) and mimics almost everything you say too. She loves eating anything her papa makes her and loves sitting with him while she eats. She is growing so fast!!

9 months!


Vivie is nine months and I just can't believe it! She has gotten so big! She has had her first taste of diet coke (the point of no return), she loves to drink from cups or water bottles!! She still loves swinging and playing outside. She isn't crawling but she is getting close. She refuses to eat any baby food, so she eats a lot of cheerios and vanilla wafers. She sleeps with us almost every night and takes up more space than Nick and I combined. There is nothing like a good snuggle!!

Vegas







We decide to go to Las Vegas for a little pre-mother's day celebration. It was way fun!! There was lots of good food and some shopping. Vivie does so good, but by the end she was ready to go home!

So Very Royal


Since there has been so much fuss about the Royal Wedding, we couldn't let it pass by with out a celebration of our own.So, we did what any self-respecting American family would do, we wore fancy hats and had tea with the Queen. Ok, so we aren't so much tea drinkers so we really had diet coke in tea cups and the Queen slightly resembles my grandma but it was super fun and perfectly proper nonetheless!

Easter!!





We had such a fun Easter!! It was so fun to watch Viv get her Easter Baskets and get all dressed up! I think we overwhelmed her with so many things to look at, but it was good!
