Happy Easter!

We had such a great Easter! Grami and GranDan (my mom and her husband) came to visit and we had a fun time taking the girls to the Easter Eggstravaganza at church, going to Easter service, having Easter lunch with Uncle Mike and Shaylee, celebrating Grami's birthday, having a little Easter egg hunt with the girls, relaxing and eating a ton. Hope you had a very happy Easter too!























OKC Visit

David was traveling last week so the girls and I headed up to OKC for a long overdue visit to see Tammy and her family. We had such a great time! Thanks for letting us come and visit! We always love hanging out with you guys and the food is ALWAYS amazing!


We took the girls to story time at the library. Mylie still won't sit down and listen to story time, but she loved hunting for Easter eggs with Casady in the library.




Coley got a Easter egg too.


Miss Coley is very content. She didn't rush to crawl. Didn't rush to eat table food. And hasn't rushed to pull up on things. However, I did find her pulled up in the pack n play after naptime. And after that, she has been trying to pull up on anything standing.






Dawson had to go to school, so we didn't get to hang out with him as much. But when he was home, he played so sweetly with Coley.

Sweater Dresses

All winter I wanted to get a picture of the girls in their cute sweater dresses. I really am terrible about taking "special occasion" pictures. So, when the weather turned cold a couple weekends ago, the girls wore their cute dresses to church. And of course, like all kids, when I sit them down to take their picture, neither will cooperate. Coley would not stop crying and Mylie refused to acknowledge that I was trying to take a picture. This was the best I could get. But aren't the dresses adorable???

Pretty Grandpa...

Grandpa and Cindy came to visit a few weeks ago. Poor Grandpa had to wear a pink, furry flower head band.

Spring Break for all!

We've had a nice Spring so far. We all are feeling much better and so far, seem pretty healthy. We had a fun Spring break from Wee School and spent some time visiting with friends and family.




Of course, the only pictures I got over the break with our friends was of Mylie (no one else...) playing in the play area at the Galleria. Our friends Libby, Trey and Grace were somewhere. And Coley was there too...crawling around somewhere.

My mom (aka Grami or "Mami" as Mylie presently says it) came to visit us on her Spring Break. We had such a great time. Parent/Grandparent visits always go by so fast. Lucky for us, we'll have all 3 sets of grandparents visiting over the next 3 weekends! I am really excited! I know the girls will be too. So, I guess that means it will take us 3 weeks to get the girls back on track, right? Haha!

We went to Durant to visit Grandma Shreve. Mylie loves going for a walk on Grandma's cool walker. Grandma and Mylie were the most popular gals when they were taking their walks in this awesome ride at g/ma's new assisted living facility.

I love this picture of Coleybear. She never leaves bows or anything in her hair, but she didn't mind this "princess" headband. She left it on the entire time. Along with her Mardi Gras beads.

This is a picture of Grandma Shreve and the girls from January...just thought it was a sweet picture.

And I had so much fun going to Longview for Dorrie's Bridal Shower. These girls are my college friends.

Teeth!







Miss Coley has 2 teeth now! She got the first one right around the time she turned 10 months and the 2nd one popped out a week later. She's been nibbling on cheese, puffs and the yogurt puffs, but she pretty much still eats baby food. We're glad these teeth are here! Maybe her nose will stop running for a little while!


And Mylie asked that I let you all know that she has teeth too!

"Sunny Days..."

We had so much fun Saturday night hanging with our friends Elmo, Abby, Zoe, Oscar and the whole gang at Sesame Street Live! We got there a little late (of course) and the show had already started, but seeing the excitement on Mylie's face when she saw Elmo dancing around was so sweet. She was a little shy at first, but quickly warmed up and waved at all of her friends. Coley is mesmerized by Elmo, so she just watched and watched and would clap sometimes too.
