Easter Family Pictures

She definitely knows how to work the camera. Below she was having fun singing while I tried to get a picture.

Easter Eggs, baskets, and candy

First Easter egg hunt. He had fun finding his little sport ball shaped eggs.
Her eggs were hidden only a little harder.

Checking out their loot!

Enjoying their candy!

1 year check up

On the way to the doctor. Still smiling!

Sister wants in on the picture action. So we got one of her too.

Weighing in 23 lbs 6 ounces. 31.75 inches long. With a head measuring at 18.1 inches round.

Totally busy looking around not paying attention to the doctor. No worries we got him to sit still so she could check him out.

And well his big sister can't go to the doctors office with out washing her hands.

Baby Boy's 1st Birthday Bash

So we started his birthday by the little guy and me hanging out outside his big sister's dance class. He didn't seem to be too bothered by it because he discovered for the first time the drinking fountain. Isn't he cute in these pictures. Sadly had to remove him from the water since he was getting a little too wet after a minute.

Here is his Birthday Cake. The bottom layer was a white cake with Raspberry filling. The round dirt part was Chocolate cake with Chocolate frosting, and the little ant hill was applesauce cake with a low sugar cream cheese frosting. My inspiration was the Grasshopper and the Ants.
While I decorated the cake one of my friends who was a life saver played with my son and then just held him as he watched me put it together. He was quite content in her lap and just fell asleep. It was wonderful not having to worry about how I would decorate the cake and stress about a crying baby. He managed to be quite happy which was beautiful.
Just a closer view of my cute sleeping baby boy.
So next Daddy got home and off we went to Chuck E Cheeses for his birthday which turned out great. No clean up and lots of entertainment for our nieces and nephews and well everyone. Here are pictures of the party below.

The Birthday Boy!

Talking to Chuck E

Still happy after seeing a big rat. :0)

Blowing out his first candle with daddies help.

Several pictures below of him enjoying his cake.

Totally not interested in the piece of chocolate cake his Aunt is trying to give him.

He even got some presents. I mostly just wanted to show him opening at least one. But since I had so many pictures I figured I should stop there.

Hubby's Birthday Pictures.

Picture of the kids while we wait for Daddy to putt the ball during our miniature golf game.

Setting up the putt and looking oh so cute.

Daddy helping her hit the ball. What a cute and good daddy he is.

Jealously watching daddy and big sister ride the bumper boats. But looking stylish in his Winnie the Pooh Hat. :0)

Before they got soaked. Too bad I don't have an after picture. The funny thing is they got on because there weren't too many people riding before. As soon as they got in line a bunch of other people got in line too. So after this we ran to the car to keep them warm. Not a cold day, but not a warm day either.

Here is his birthday cake.
He wanted a homemade Hot Fudge Brownie Cheesecake for his birthday.
