Ethan's Easter Hut 2011

Ethan and Mommy like to get crafty somedays.  This was our attempt in making an Easter Hut.  I have to admit I didn't follow the directions precisely therefore our frosting consistency was really runny.  But Ethan did a great job using the materials and tools that he had.  I think he actually used all the candy without putting any in his mouth!

It's been months since we posted any pictures or updates of the kids.  I hope to be posting lots of pictures that sum up our Spring and Summer of 2011.

Here is a more recent photo of the boys:

Laughing out Loud

I can't believe how fast time is flying!  Dylan is 4 1/2 months and is learning how to laugh out loud.  While daddy was being silly, we caught both boys in action.

My Beautiful Boys

I haven't made much effort in taking pictures of my boys but here are some of my favorite moments of them.  Ethan absolutely loves his baby brother.  It seems like every day he asks if Dylan is getting bigger.  Ethan can't wait for Dylan to grow up and learn how to walk, run and play.  These days you'll find Ethan singing to Dylan and dancing around him to make Dylan smile.  Ethan has been such a big help in assisting us in catering to Dylan.  Dylan also loves the attention that brother gives him.  Dylan seems so solemn during the day while Ethan is at PreSchool.  Then once Ethan walks in the door, Dylan loves to stare at Ethan, while Ethan talks about his day.  Right now it may seem like they are opposites.  Dylan seems passive and laid back (unless he is hungry), Ethan will be my silly boy that turns into a class clown.  Either way both boys seem to favor mommy and her ways :0)  

Greg's 46th Birthday (3.12.2011)

Happy Birthday Sweetie!  We woke up Saturday morning and decided to have a wonderful birthday breakfast at IHOP.  Then we headed home to have a slice of his construction theme birthday cake.  Later that evening we had dinner at Los Vaqueros, where the mariachis sang around us during dinner.  The boys enjoyed dancing in their seats and clapping along with the music.     

Ethans 4th Birthday - Fort Worth Zoo

Birthday Shirt Matched his Invitations

My little sweetheart turned four on Valentine's Day.  Ethan loves our trips to the zoo and he especially loves the lions. So, Daddy and I surprised him with a birthday party at the zoo.  I decided to have a lion themed party.  However, I didn't find the perfect invitations, party decorations or party favors...so I made them!  I probably should have spent more time and effort to make it all perfect and not wait until the week of to finalize my plans.  The birthday party included a private animal show, build a monkey activity and yummy lion cupcakes (made by Tia Vanessa).  Ethan was so excited to have his friends and family celebrate his fourth birthday!

Dylan and his Friends

Binky Time

Mr. Dylan has three girl friends.  Not girlfriends but friends that are girls.  Yes, I'm already acting like the crazy protective mom!  Dylan is the oldest of his four friends.  It was really neat to have pregnant mommy friends but I'm excited to watch our darling babies grow up together.  In the picture below I think Dylan looks like a grouchy old man.
