Easter

Here is our big Easter egg hunt Sunday morning! Vaughn thought the eggs were too easy to find. I told him that's because the Easter Bunny knows Marshall lives here too and he needs to finds some.

The boys found there Easter baskets: Vaughn said he got the frog he has always wanted for years and years.

Here is Marshall just wondering whats going on:

The boys dressed up in there cute Easter outfits and looking so excited:

After church we went over to my mom's house to hang out with my brother and his family for a bit. Then we had a big Easter dinner with my mom and dad, brandon's mom and dad, Jayna and my grandma and grandpa.

We had a great Easter!!

Happy 60th Birthday dad!!

We had a surprise party for my dad for his 60th birthday. And boy was he surprised. We had brandon take him out for the day so we could get ready for the party. Brandon said when they pulled up for the party there were all these cars out front so my dad asked "I wonder whats going on at our house?" then they walked into the house and no one was there. And he was like "Nothing I guess?" Then my mom told him she needed him to help her with something in the back yard. So he went walking out to a backyard FULL of people and a BIG surprise!!

Hoogle Zoo Field trip!!

Vaughn's preschool class went on a field trip to the Hoogle Zoo and parents were not invited. Which was ok with me. But when I dropped Vaughn off at school I think he was nervous. He wanted me to go with him. How cute! But I helped him find his buddy Adam and then he was ok. Each preschooler had a high school buddy that was with them at all times. They also suggested we send a disposible camera. So I did and these are the pictures: This is Vaughn and Sarah on the merry go round.

This is Sarah and Vaughn at the park:

Then some random pictures:

Then this is Sarah and her buddy:

And Vaughn and his Buddy:

It looks like he had a great time at the ZOO!! When I went to pick him up from school I couldn't find him anywhere. Miss Jill was unloading the bus and there was no Vaughn. I was starting to get a little worried like they had left him with the monkeys at the zoo. But then Miss Jill said there was a 2nd bus of preschoolers.. So I sat tight and waited for that bus to come. Finally it arrived and still no Vaughn getting off the bus. Then I noticed a little blond head leaning against one of the windows. Yep that's got to be my blondy, he must have fallen asleep on the way home. Poor guy.

Marshall's 1 yr stats

We went to the doctors on Wed and Marshall weighed in at 17 lb 9 oz. which puts him not even on the charts yet for weight. He is 28" long which puts him in the 5th% for his height. Not to shabby. He is getting bigger. He is still to small to turn him forward facing in the car, darn. He is drinking whole milk now and is doing very good with it. I have tried to switch him to a sippy and we are doing ok with that. He LOVES pulling himself up on ANYTHING and stand there. He loves to inch around the furniture. But we aren't walking yet. He loves to talk and babble especially to brother. He does say mom and dad!! And he LOVES to point at everything and anything and say "OOO"! Its funny. I think he is doing pretty good!

Grossest thing EVER!!

So today I was getting my boys ready to get in the tub. I was over filling the tub with water when Vaughn said he had to go to the bathroom. The next thing I heard was Vaughn saying" Marshall don't do that!" I turn around and there's Marshall standing up holding on to the toilet and playing in the toilet water and trying to catch Vaughn's pee as it shoots into the toilet!! EW!! GROSS!! UGH!! Marshall!!
