Our Atlanta Trip

Bryson, Nate and I traveled to Atlanta to visit with Nate's family. Bryson was so excited to "re-meet" his cousin Owen and meet baby Pearl that he didn't want to even nap. Thankfully he was so exhausted from our early morning, getting up at 4 to fly down, he napped with no problem in his pack-n-play.

We met up with everyone at a little Mexican restaurant nearby. Bryce and Owen had a great time together.

After dinner we took them to a trail and they ran like crazy boys, getting all their energy out. Bryce also managed to rip up both legs, guess that's a boy for you!

This is the first picture of all three 'Buckert' grand-kids.

Heather and Rob are so lucky! Baby Pearl, as Bryce likes to call her, is so happy! Bryce was of course enthralled with her the entire trip!

A little monkey see, monkey do! There was a lot of this over the span of our visit! :)

Easter Egg Hunt with the Neighbors

Our neighbor Margaret, Michael's mom, was so sweet and hosted a little Easter Egg Hunt for the neighbor kids. It was so much fun and for the first time since they were born, we were able to get a picture of the 4 kids. So above, from left to right, it's Aanya, Maya, Bryce and Michael.

Bryce was trying to weasel some jellybeans from Maya at this point!

Right before we set the kids free in the backyard to find the eggs!

Big Boy Bed

We finally got Bryson's bed set up and he's decided to start sleeping in it right away. I am shocked at how small he looks even in a full size bed. Here's hoping this will be a smooth transition!

Christ Lutheran Church Easter Egg Hunt

Bryce had so much fun, and even found a dollar bill in one of his eggs. He got smart after just a few eggs and started opening them to see what was inside before he put them in his basket.

There were so many eggs he decided to be choosy, of course still listening to mommy and daddy when we saw he found some candy we liked!

It's a...

...boy! In case you couldn't tell! :) Sure wasn't what we were expecting but he's healthy and we're thrilled. Now we're working on getting Bryson to adjust since he's been calling the baby a girl from day one!
This lovely money shot was the result of me asking the doctor, 'Are you sure it's a boy?' Apparently the answer is yes.

This shot is a little creepy but when you know what you're looking at it's pretty neat!

Baby is measuring 13 oz. and as healthy as can be!

The Bump

Quite a few friends that haven't seen me have asked to see a bump picture. Despite my reluctance I figured it would be better to post is here rather than all over facebook!
Here's Cookie in all of his/her glory!

Little Monkey

After not feeling well all day, Bryson perked right up, jumping around on the couch, after a banana snack!

Naked Boy in a Fort

Bryson loves making forts and tents out of anything he can get his hands on. Tonight he decided to streak downstairs and hide in his fort after his bath. He thought I couldn't see him!

Maya and Bryson

Here they are! Still hanging out, having a pajama party while the moms and dads enjoy some adult company. Still lovin' each other..... though Maya has taken to calling Bryson 'Aimee' and we can't figure out why!

My new endeavor...*edited link

I've started a new food blog. Lots of my friends have asked about the food I make and serve at parties. I decided to combine my love of cooking, photography, writing and design and begin a new blog. Use this link http://trustmeimnotmartha.blogspot.com/ to get to the new blog, OR use the perminant link on the right side of this blog!

**Also, now that I've figured out some cool new design HTML, I will be slowly changing over this blog. Look for a new design in the next month or so!**
