Bluebonnet Babies

It's Texas tradition to throw your kids in the median to snap a picture on the side of the highway as soon as the bluebonnets bloom.  After asking around, Whitney and I found a little safer spot at the JC Penney headquarters and took the girls for a little photo session. We were outnumbered, so we had an interesting time wrangling 4 kids (Bryce just sat in his carrier - good boy!) and trying to get some decent pictures. Ella kept doing a crazy scrunch face which resulted in about 100 outtakes, but here are some of my favorites.



These two did not want to take pictures, but they are still the cutest sissies ever!
This picture is so Zoe and might be my most favorite one of the day.  We had fun taking action shots of her running and twirling through the bluebonnets.  I love this kid!
 and then Ella was DONE!  



Ella's First Easter

We had a wonderful first Easter with the little bug! Holidays are so much more fun now that Ella can really enjoy the festivities and celebrate with everyone. We started off the weekend with an egg hunt with our MOPS group.  Ella and Reese are basically obsessed with each other, so they definitely had a good time. Reesie gave Ella her first bite of candy while I wasn't looking - I have a feeling Reese will be teaching Ella lots of things that she shouldn't.  Little toot!

We spent Sunday afternoon at Grammie and Pop's house.
Ella loved watching her bigger cousins play and even shared her toys with Isabella and Camden.  My mom hid puffs and yogurt melts for Ella and she insisted on opening them as soon as she found them.  Daddy was a very good hunting helper.
Everyone checking out their loot! Please don't judge my dad's love of yard art. Thankfully, you can't see his planet windmill or new chairs made out of wagon wheels on the side of the yard...

Ella crashed when we got home but popped up at 6:30am ready to play with her plastic eggs. I wonder how long she will carry those around for...I'm guessing at least two weeks!

Silly Goobers

I know you can't see anything in this video, but Ella's little giggle on it makes my heart explode.  She loves playing with Daddy in the morning before he goes to work.  Here they are being silly goobers.
