Easter Day

Ready for an egg hunt!

Or should I say,

a freezing,

dangerous

mass chaos

attack

on a field.....

One egg + one color=

one content boy!

And one blue hand....

and mouth!!

Fastest egg dying in the west!

That's ok, because they didn't last long.

We had plans to make those eggs

back into chicks!

He was so proud,

and I do have to say my little chef

did 90% of the work on these!

Spoiled by the Easter bunny

multiple times.

I was really worried about the attempt

to save the helicopter....

daddy is getting a little old for this!

Guess who found the first egg?!

Break for rock throwing!

Yes, Gracie

loves her egg hunts!

Blowing, or spitting on

dandelions.

Can you believe that was

Mommy's tricycle!?

Rides with Papa,

almost falling asleep.

A little dirt don't hurt,

especially when its for dessert!

Fun stuff Grandma!!

Best wagon ride EVER!

Big Easter day~

three exhausted kiddos!

love, the rockinryans



photo shoot

My Baby toddler

did NOT

like his photo-shoot.

I imagined these super cute

pictures with his favorite love "Zee-Zee"

and a big huge "1" balloon ala Pinterest.....

but......

he didn't think

that sounded

so cool.

But somehow

our great photographer

was able to capture

that sweet faced

blue-eyed

chubby-cheeked

squeezable

love of mine

looking

pretty darn

cute.

Big Guy had fun!

He has been excited about planning his big

"3" party.

Bet you can't guess the theme!!!

I told him he has to pick one theme.

After a day of telling me

"Mommy, I really like your hair".

and

"Mommy, you are my Girlfriend".

He got me up to 2 co-themes.

The boy knows how to get what he wants!

Recently he asked

"Mom, why did God make Bunnies with no wings?"

And when I told him we were going to Grandmas

for Easter dinner,

he said

"YEAHHHHH!

Is she making 2 chickens?"

"Why" is constantly coming out of his mouth.

When he counts

"1,2,3,4,8"

I say "Hey, that's not right".

He will laugh and say

"Got ya!"

This boy is still

SUPER obsessed with balls.

In fact,

I think he loves blueberries

only because

he calls them balls,

and hey, you can eat them too!

They adore each other still.

One day Jake said

Sean walked over to Trent

and started hugging him.

They were all saying "ahh...."

then the hug turned into

falling onto the floor together....

then a full blown wresting match.

Guess we should get used to that!

Big Guy is really into

what I do at work.

Everyday I tell him

what I did, "Today I helped a Doctor fix

 a ladies wrist."

He shows concern, wandering how she did,

is she OK?

Not just for the day, but for a solid week.

He wants to know details.

Tonight I started telling him about

"rocks" that grow in our bodies.

I am a little timid about sharing details.

Then Jake helped out with

calling them tumors.

We even got more detailed with

talking about Cancer.

I showed him my scar,

he had never even noticed it before.

He handles all this talk with such ease.

He enjoys learning,

so I guess I shouldn't always

put things in "baby" terms.

He also informed me that

"When I get big

and you get small Mom,

(yes I am Mom now :(   )

You can go to Jacobs

and I will go to the Hospital

to help people."

Sounds good to me!

Baby has been grumpy

and not himself lately.

Hopefully it is a tooth

(coming quickly!)

Oh, Big Guy is FINALLY

getting those front teeth!

They love each other....

I swear!

Love,

the rockinryans

Seanie Boy

22 lbs 7 oz. (75th%)

29.5 in. (45th%)

As of Easter Day,

we officially call you

a

walker!

(a robot anyway!)

You LOVE the outdoors

And not fond of laying still for

any reason

at

all.

Dressing, changing, picture taking....

all

wrestling

matches.

Big brother

tried to show you

how easy it was.

But you wanted no part.

I am shocked I got the one I did!

You really just wanted

to sit on

jump on

attack

each other.

Guess Mommy better get used to that!

You were such a mild, quiet baby.

Now,

you are wild,

into everything.

Throwing, yelling, screaming

running, chasing,

laughing.

You love to say

"Cheers" and clink glasses together.

You can say "out"

"dad" and "bubba".

But, you mainly just say "ball".

Yes, you are still obsessed.

And yes, you still only have 2 teeth!

Although you do have a

temper......

you are also

very loving.

You love to snuggle, kiss and hug.

You also are very attached to

"Zee-Zee" your giraffe.

You get sooooo excited when you see him

and cuddle him as you fall asleep

and hold him all night.

(mommy may need to order a backup!)

You make us smile!

love, the rockinryans
