Easter Bunny Photo 4/11/09

We took the kids to the Bass Pro Shop to see the Easter Bunny and this is how it went. I think that we can all figure out who enjoyed seeing the Easter Bunny and who didn't! :)

Our Star Student of the Week...

Bryce is the star student in his class for the weeks of April 13 - 24th. We had to make an "About Me" poster to hang in his class and Shawn worked on this poster for about 8 hours. He tried to incorporate all of the things that Bryce likes now, such as, TV shows, restaruants, places to go and things to do. The teacher also sent home a Star Student bag in which Bryce gets to take some of his favorite toys to share with the class. On Tuesday, he took 2 elephants, a Chuck. E Cheese stuffed animal and Marty (the zebra from Madagascar). He was so excited about being the Star Student. Have I mentioned how much I love his school, WCA??? Well, I do!

Carter and the snowcone....

Have you seen this spoiled rotten, cute, climbing on everything, adorable smile, getting closer and closer to terrible 2 stage kid???

Well, I have because he is getting into everything and climbing on everything. I am constantly getting him down off of the counters and out of chairs that he stands in. He is keeping me busy.

After school one day, Bryce wanted a snowcone from Bahama Bucks. I did not think that Carter would eat one, so I didn't get him one. I guess I was wrong because as soon as Bryce sat it on the counter, someone was there to pick it up. He was so proud of himself too!!

What a devious little look!!

Waterview Spring Fling.... 4/4/09

The community that we live in, hosts several events for kids each year. This year it happened to be on the same day as the 1st blastball game and Rowlett's Egg Hunt. Needless to say, we had a busy but fun day. By the time we got home to go to this, it was Carter's nap time, so he stayed home with Daddy.


They had this little train for the kids and parents to ride and it took you around the big pond at the front of the community. Bryce rode it about 4 times.

Fun on the train. What a big boy!!

I even rode once. Can you tell that this is a self portrait??? :)

This lady told jokes, a story and even did a magic show.

There was also 2 balloon artists making balloon animals for the kids. Bryce got a bunny and we got a bunny bracelet for Carter.

They had a petting zoo also. Bryce LOVES animals and was trying to pick all of them up.

He was so proud of himself for catching this bunny.

Those bunnies were fast but not too fast for Bryce!

City of Rowlett Easter Egg Hunt 4/4/09

Every year, the City of Rowlett hosts an egg hunt in downtown Rowlett. Last year was our first year to go and Bryce had so much fun and got so many eggs. They section off the areas by age and wait about 10 minutes between each age groups hunt. So I was able to see Bryce and Carter hunt eggs. They had bounce houses set up and different vendors had booths with crafts and games for the kids.

Waiting for the hunt to start!

Still patiently waiting...




Bryce did really good even though he was distracted by all of the costumed characters.

(There were 3 Chick-fil-a cows, 2 Easter bunnies, a duck and a hippo (from the Rowlett waterpark)

Shawn helping Carter with his eggs.

Carter ended up with 4 eggs because he kept throwing them out of his basket.

He was a little unhappy because he wanted to run around, but there were too many people.

Mr. Happy!!

Mommy and Carter!

We had a great time and I am thankful that we live in a City that does things like this for the kids.

Bryce's 1st blastball game

Bryce's team The Red Ranger's had their first game on Saturday, April 4th. It was cold and sprinkling that morning and the game started at 8:30 am, however, Bryce had a great time. It was so fun getting him dressed in his uniform and seeing him as a big boy. They do not keep score, so everyone wins. The teams bat and field 3 times during the game (if time allows). The games are 30 mintues long. Bryce had a great time. He is definitely the team cheerleader. He gets so excited for everyone. He did really good and We are SO PROUD of our big (little) boy.
