Wicked

(catch up post) Last month the girls went on an over night trip to Richmond to see wicked. Our first stop was Maymont, 100 acre estate. It was fantastic. The house was really neat, the grounds were beautiful.
Awesome tree
Enormous Coi fish

The estate also cares for animals that cannot care for themselves in the wild.
Flightless bald eagles.
We had dinner at this Tapas restaurant. It was
so delicious.

Sadly no pictures of us going to Wicked, which
was fantastic. I really enjoyed it.

Breakfast...This place is so random yet so fantastic.

Thanks ladies...It was fabulous. Thank you, my love,
for taking the kids...it was a nice get away.

Austin 4 Months


Austin is doing amazing. He is such a happy baby. He just smiles ALL the time and wants to be a part of the action. Over the past month is has laughed, rolled over and started holding and playing with toys.

He prefers to sleep on his tummy. Right now Miss Evey can do no wrong in his eyes. She leans on him, kisses him, gets in his face, hugs him and he just loves it all. Yesterday, he was crying cause he was hungry and she was trying to cheer him up with a toy, saying "It's okay, Austin." So cute.

We will start working on getting him to a 4 hour schedule between feedings and prolly not start cereal till 5 or 6 months. We will also be working on rolling from back to tummy. Gosh, I just love this little guy. He is so darn cute, I could just eat him.

Easter 2010

We are at the Funk's house in Ponte Vedra, FL. We had a huge Easter egg hunt for the kids. Evey had so much fun. Her style is slow and fine comb for eggs. She got all the ones that the big kids left behind. She also got to color the eggs, which probably would not have happened at our house.
