Yea!!! Bunny Pics!!!

Last Friday, I took the boys to have their pics taken with bunnies. Monique did a fabulous job!!! The mere fact that Caden is acutally IN any of these pictures should tell you that she is awesome...he wasn't really "in to" sitting still that day (imagine that!). Here are some of my faves:
This is my favorite of the 2 boys together...Sweet bunnies...Caden called them puppies.

Sweet baby Grayson...

Who's there???Looks like he's gonna stomp the poor bunny!

He didn't quite understand what he was to do with the carrot.

LOVE this one!!! Not sure why, but I think it's super cute.

Here bunny bunny!!

This is TOTALLY a Paul Fryant expression. Those of you who know him will agree.

Grayson's Weigh-In...

We went to the doctor yesterday, and Grayson passed his weight check with flying colors...
Birth: 6 lbs. 8 oz.
2 days (&4 days): 6 lbs. 2oz.
2 weeks: 6 lbs. 12 oz.
5 weeks: 9 lbs. 0 oz.
Way to go, Grayson!!! We are very pleased that his weight gain has picked up...it's always good to have a healthy report to share!!
Frank and I were talking the other day about how nice it is (and a bit odd for us) taking Grayson to the doctor because the last thing they say to us is that they will see us at our next well visit. With Caden, it was always, "Now when do you see the cardiologist again???" Praise God for healthy babies!!!

Loads of Pics...

Not much new to report around here, but I thought I would update with some pics. We did get a new dishwasher, so that was fun...For the first time, the dishes are actually clean when they come out of the dishwasher!!! And Caden can now chew up a pill. This would not be that big of a deal, but for the last year I have been crushing up his Singular and dumping it down his throat, but tonight I gave him the whole pill to see what would happen. He chewed it up like a champ!! I was so proud! Now, without further ado, pics:
The boys' Easter baskets...
The logistics of bathtime at our house...It gets very interesting because Caden sees it as his duty to get the entire bathroom wet.
Sweet Grayson...look at how LONG he is!!!
Ooo...I'm so cold!!
Caden after the bath...
Sweet feet...
Caden really enjoyed his Spring Break. It meant that we got to go to the park several time. Here he is with Honey pushing him in the swing...
Going down the slide...
In the "big boy" swing...
Here is Grayson enjoying the park...I promise he's under there!! It was windy, so I made him a tent. Notice the double stroller...very cool!!
Next park...fun curvy slide...
And another swing...this time Cousin Courtney is pushing with Aunt Joy in front (they came all the way from Dallas just to take me to the park!!!)...sorry y'all aren't really in the pic!!
We go to the doctor on Thursday to have a weight check for Grayson...I'll keep ya posted on how the little one is growing. I know you will all be anxiously waiting to hear!!! :)

Help me with a camera...

Ok...If you are reading this and have a camera that you love, PLEASE comment and tell me about it. We have a little Cannon Powershot Camera that is fabulous for throwing in the diaper bag for quick candids, but it is a few years old, and I am wanting to upgrade. I'm still going to use that one to keep in my purse/diaper bag, but I would like a bigger camera to take nice pics of the boys. So basically, I'm looking to upgrade. I've looked at the Nikon D40 and the Cannon Rebel XTi, but I'm definitely open to any suggestions. Please give me your input...even if we've never met...I need help with this one!!
Thanks Bloggers!!!
I'll keep you updated with what we decide on.

Edited to add: Do I need 10 Megapixels or would I be fine with just 6???

Let's hear it for the boys...

WARNING: Mushy Post Ahead!!
May I just say that God has blessed me so very far beyond my imagination that I just can't wrap my brain around it!! I have 3 incredible boys in my life that He is letting me be blessed by everyday. They are all His creations, and I am so humbled that He has allowed them to be a huge part of my life...I praise Him for these boys daily. So, without further ado, here they are...
Here is what Grayson and I spend a large portion of our day doing...My sweet Grayson Lane...He is a precious little one. So tiny!! We laugh and call him our "little old man." He always grunts and groans...no cute little baby noises for him!

And my 2 bigger boys. These 2 DEFINITELY make me smile each and everyday!!!

Look at those blue eyes...little girls watch out for this heart breaker!! (Of course, you'll have to get past his mama first!!) He is so cute at this age. Every time we get out the camera, he turns and says, "Cheese!!" So cute!

And what is there to say about this one??? My sweet sweet husband!! I know that he loves me more than words can describe, and I hope he knows that the feeling does not go unreturned. He is truly my very best friend!

Birthday Pictures...

Yesterday was my little man's second birthday. We taught him to say "Two!" when asked how old he is...it's really cute!! We haven't done a big party yet because of little brother's arrival, but we had a birthday lunch with my parents yesterday...here are some of the pics from the day (and beyond):
Caden doesn't really like icing (like his Mommy!!), so Mom made him cookies and put a candle on top...he LOVED it!!

Oh Boy!!! COOKIES!!!

This candle looks like it could be tasty...

Yummy cookies...

Family Photo...

Here's Grayson all dressed up for the occasion...

Caden doesn't understand why we have a chair that he doesn't fit in, so he puts his stuffed animals in it instead...whatever works!

The napping beauties...

This is what my days consist of (and the only sense of order in them!)...Sippy cups, bowls, medicine droppers, bottles, and nebulizer cups (ps-if you have kids and don't know what on earth a nebulizer cup is, say "Thank you, Jesus for healthy lungs!").
