Randy, Teresa and Kaytie Visit!

Landon's family got to come down for the weekend to
celebrate Easter with us.  We were so happy we didn't
have to spend the Holiday alone!

 

All night all Brielle wanted to do was hide eggs and have us
take turns searching for them.


uh uh Kaytie...no peaking!

Kaytie and I researching how to make our own
deodorant...that stuff causes cancer!  Kaytie hates taking medicine
likes to cook from scratch and wants to try all natural things just like I do.
We're a couple of crunchy girls I tell ya.

Opening her mini princess books from her Lita.

Saturday morning we took Brielle to a small Easter festival
they had at one of our shopping centers.

 

We looooved the chicks the most! I want my own so
I can have organic eggs. Landon ain't going for it but
I'm pretty sure someday Kaytie will definitely have her
own chicken coop! And a cute one at that!

Love this picture and how pretty her eyes look!

Brielle getting her face painted for the first time

She loved her butterfly and wanted to keep it on forever.

That's My Kind Of Dr's Visit!

The Thursday before Easter Brielle's Dr's Office hosted an Easter egg hunt.
They hid  scattered about 1,000 eggs!
 

 

 

 

Brielle's reaction to the Easter Bunny!

 

She picked up two eggs and was done...she started to open
them and say "lets see whats in here" I was like "Brielle we'll look
later...just keep getting eggs, get a lot!"
For some reason she got the concept of Easter egg hunting
much more last year than this year lol!
She realizes she's not the only one hunting.........

 

I took her to the back of the building where none of the other kids were.
You can see all the Easter eggs for the taking right...well here she is pointing
and saying "look mom there's some over there!!!" Um yes but there's a plethora of them right here.
So we head over to where she wants to go...........

 

Yeah and there was like no eggs haha!
 Whatever it was her day so we did what she wanted.

She still made out really well, I actually had her give away some
of her prizes to other kids who got there late and didn't get to hunt.

My sweet little honey bear

 

 

I loved that we got about 7 free frozen yogurts.

And some bracelets, you know she loved that!

 

We broke the rules and headed straight to the frozen
yogurt place and I let her get her free treat before dinner. 

 

Ikea and The Museum

I was sick as a dog  a couple of Mondays ago.  I got a bake potato at Mcalisters and it had some bad meat on it.  My mom got the same thing but hardly ate any of the toppings and she just go a little sick.  I was so mad at myself cause I don't eat lunch meat while pregnant and I completely overlooked the fact that the potato was topped of with some kind of lunch meat. Landon didn't even notice.  If I had been paying attention and sticking to not eating lunch meat I could have prevented the whole ordeal!
Took me half the week to recover, thank goodness I had my mom and Landon to take care of me.

My sweet honey also surprised me with some beautiful flowers (from Colombia of course) and candy.
The most wonderful part was the card, probably my most favorite card he's given me yet with some of the sweetest words I've ever heard, gosh I love that man!
 

By the end of the week I was better so I called up my friend Melodie who lives in Frisco to meet me at Ikea for some shopping.  I had a big list of things I needed to complete Brielle's big girl room.  I'm not too keen on their decorations but I do love all their organizational stuff and that's what I was on a mission to get.

After our successful trip we stopped at Blue Mesa and ate, It was sooo good.
We went through 3 bowls of sweet potato chips and fire roasted hot sauce!

 

We had the most perfect weather and beautiful view!

 

 

Brielle and Grayson finished giving the ducks our remaining 4th bowl of chips ha.

The following Tuesday we met Melodie and the boys at the Art Museum for 1st Tuesday fun
This was the funnest craft they've done yet, painting with different fruits and veggies!

 

I was super nervous about all that paint and Brielle ruining her new outfit
from her Gigi, but we made it out with minimal mess.

The other craft we did was make a wiener dog out of scraps of everything.

Brielle's and mine lol!

 

My little artist discovered the fun in pencil sharpening,
 she made sure ALL the pencils got a turn.

 

 

The last activity of the day was story time but
this week they had a lot of music and movement
to go with it.  Can you tell she had a blast!
