Easter Day....Hip Hop Hooray

Bright and early Easter morn......the carrots and milk had been devoured by the "bunny"

Admiring the baskets for her and Loags

Playing with their Easter ducks

After following the Easter bunny's trail at home, we headed to Church and then to grammie's and papa's to hunt some eggs and eat some doughnuts....... Back to our house for a little rest before everyone joined us for a great dinner! It was a fantastic Easter day!!!

Coloring Eggs

After dinner, Ella was eager to color some eggs! This is the first year she has done this and thought it was great! She loves to do "magic tricks" these days, so she thought turning the eggs different colors was quite 'magical'......... Giving Logan instructions on exactly what she was doing

Proud of her creations

The finished products.....I think I have more glitter (pixie dust) on me than the eggs do!

Fun times before Easter......

Yesterday we headed to Disney on Ice........So fun. Logan was sitting on my lap the whole time so there is no photos from the show (goes to show who the photographer is in this family.....heehee) Ella REALLY enjoyed the whole show and didn't take her eyes off the ice. She waved like crazy at Cinderella and Alice in Wonderland (her favs). It was a great time! Ella even got to get some overpriced cotton candy (compliments of nannie and muntz) and it came with this mask..... She sure makes one cute Dash! Logan loves playing with toys these days........he got these cute new toys today. The ball from our sweet next door neighbors and the ball popper from nannie and muntz

Quite the funny photo below that daddy is NOT a fan of!

Ella putting the finishing touches on some Easter cupcakes......she is the master of sprinkles

As you can see, Ella was hard at work and then became a little "bored" with the last batch......She said, "mommy I'm finished........." and I laughed as I saw the final product......One HEAVILY sprinkled cupcake in the batch!

Happy 6 Months My Sweet Pea Lover

I REALLY can't believe that Logan is 6 months old today. This sweet little guy is 'almost' sitting up on his own, he is rolling over to his tummy, pushing up, and starting to scoot. He also loves to bend himself in half and suck on his toes....he actually cut his lip yesterday with his toenail, silly baby. Logan is still full of non-stop smiles and giggles. He especially loves his night-time good-night songs that Ella sings him each night. He is great at going to bed in his crib and is starting to almost sleep through the night again. His favorite toy is still his whooz-it. He has now had rice cereal and apples. He drank juice from a sippy cup the other day like a big boy! I think he was actually 'jealous' of Ella eating lunch today so he got to try sweet peas! He opened his mouth wide for each bite and boy was he full of smiles after!!!! Logan is SUCH a sweet baby......he is LOVED!!!

After the "pea" lunch

Enjoying the Jumperoo.....

Ella can't stand to not be in the photo!

Forget about Sour Grapes.......Logan says, "SOUR APPLES"

Round 2: Logan vs. Apples

We are currently on day 3 of apples.....today was a good day. He actually ended up eating his apples and cereal and opened his mouth for each bite. Day 1 & 2 weren't as "successful"

Day 1......not so sure

Day 2......look at these hilarious sour faces.........

just when you thought it couldn't get worse.......

he even did little shivers and shakes......

Nannie and Muntz have arrived

Ella is having a great time.......Nannie and Muntz have arrived!

Ella got to go to the airport with her daddy to pick them up!

I don't think she has stopped talking since they have arrived.......she needs to update them on many months of learning she has done.....

Logan has given them lots of smiles! And some cuddles too!

There was no sitting back and watching at the park for Nannie and Muntz.....

A Rice Cereal Eater and a Monster Battler

Tonight was the night.....We decided it was time to give our little guy some rice cereal. He is nearly 6 months (sad mommy, growing too fast) ..... He seemed to like the first few bites but wasn't too sure about it after all at the end!

These two really love each other.......Ella is always concerned about her little brother and takes time out of her "busy" schedule to check on him often and play with him......whenever Logan starts to get a little fussy, it just takes a bit of attention from his big sis to put the smile back on his face

I had food poisoning on Sunday and was not feeling good at all......I was upstairs in bed and Ella was downstairs and SOOOOO concerned about me. Paul said she asked over and over if I was better. I heard her tell him that she needed to get down from dinner and come upstairs....when he asked why she replied " I have to go tell mommy that I love her. THAT will make her feel all better." She is so sweet! She drew many pictures for me and I was feeling better on Monday, but Grammie was nice enough to come over to help out with the kiddos for the day so I could get a little extra rest.

Storytime............Ella helped her daddy read the book.

Just a cute photo

A couple of cute videos.....

1) Logan eating his cereal

2)When Grammie was visiting, Ella decided to "battle" some monsters that kept coming in the front door so it was "safe" for us in the house. I think she has been watching too much Scooby-doo (not sure why the video is sideways....sorry)
