Easter Fun

Hayden's first Easter was a success.  We went to church Sunday morning and then headed over to Nick's parents house for a delicious lunch and Easter egg hunt.  Brooklynn had a blast with cousin Marlee.  Thanks, everyone for all the Easter goodies.

6 Months

Our sweet Hayden turned six months old on Friday.  We celebrated by feeding him green beans.  Needless to say, he is not a fan.  The first two pictures were taken by Brooklynn.

Trying those green beans again tonight.

Hayden has his six month check up appointment on Tuesday.  I'm curious to see how much he weighs!
If you are interested, below is picture of Brooklynn at six months!

Wordless Wednesday

Happy Feet

Watch out, Hope Solo.  Well, not really.  Today B started her first soccer practice and game.  She has played soccer through the Happy Feet program at school, but this is an actual team with games on Sundays.  

We weren't sure that B was even going to make her first game today.  She had a rough night last night and threw up a couple of times.  This morning, however, she woke up and felt fine.  We were going to keep her home, but she insisted on going.  So we went.  

Below are a few things we learned today:

1- Never, never, ever take B to soccer without a nap.  She only had about three, maybe four crying fits. Sleepy girl?  I think so.

2- Brooklynn may, but probably will not be a future soccer star.  Timid?  Yes!  She likes to watch the action from the other end of the field..

3- What? No Hands?  When she did get caught up in play Brooklynn just wanted to pick up the ball!  I can relate,  I never really cared for kicking a ball either.

4- Next week I need to track down B's buddy Grayson.  We asked they be on the same team, but that didn't happen.  Grayson's mom told me that he also wanted to pick up the ball.  When the coaches fussed at him to not touch it, his solution was to just sit on the ball!   Haha!  I can't wait to watch him next week!

B's next game is Sunday at 3:40!  More pics to come. Go Daisy Green Dino's!

Updates

We are busy, busy, busy around here.  Hopefully after next week things will slow down a bit.  Hayden is doing well.  He is taking a steroid twice a day until cold season passes.  The doctor just doesn't want his lungs to be damaged with the constant inflammation.  He is still smiling and laughing!

Brooklynn has become quite the sass mouth here lately.  She needs to be reminded occasionally that she is not the boss, which seems to surprise her.  She starts soccer on Sunday! Her team is the Daisy Green Dino's! I hope she likes it and I will definitely post pics Sunday night of her first game!

5 months

Yesterday Hayden turned five months old!  I can't believe that our sweet baby boy is growing so quickly.  

Today we headed up to Rabun Gap to finally celebrate Christmas with the Floyds.  B had a good time playing with her cousins and was exhausted on the ride home.  Anyone that knew Nana well will appreciate the picture below.  It made me smile when I turned around and saw B asleep with her arm over her head.  That is exactly how Nana used to sleep.

Snow!

I have been such a bad blogger lately.  My laptop is dead and needs a new battery and it is just difficult to post from my ipad.  Excuses, excuses I know.

Brooklynn was pretty excited to see the snow yesterday.  I was shocked because it was so warm on Friday, so  I really didn't even expect for it to snow!

Brooklynn obviously had some type of snow unit at school recently because she knew all about snow angels, snowmen, and snow balls.  As soon as we went outside she got down on the ground and did this.  She could not have been happier.

Hayden was a little upset that he couldn't play in the snow too. He watched from the window.  He will have to wait another year before he can play in the snow.
