Beckett's Baptism

Beckett was baptized on Easter Sunday at my hometown church. What a special day it was to have this done on Easter.
Beckett did awesome during the baptism. He fussed only a little when the water was put on his head but then was happy the rest of the time. He even gave the congregation lots of smiles when he was walked up and down the aisle by the pastor. He's such a trooper!
We were sad his Godparents, Sam and Emily, couldn't be there, as they now live in Florida and it was a very last minute decision to do the baptism on Easter...but we know they were there in spirit!!!


uh oh! Tears right when we got to the church wasn't a very good way to start...but boy do I love this kid!!!















Shocker. Kendall wasn't cooperating for pictures.

Easter Morning

The Easter Bunny somehow found his way to PA to bring some goodies for the kids. Kendall had a great time searching for the eggs, and Beckett was obsessed with watching Kendall find the eggs.


When Kendall first came downstairs, she found an egg right away - so she was so busy worrying about what was in the egg that she didn't even notice her Easter basket!







On the hunt for some more eggs!


Easter Egg Decorating

They sure have made egg decorating a lot easier and neater since I was a kid! This little kit my mom got was so incredibly easy and took no time at all! I think Kendall had a blast since she was able to do so much of it herself...especially since her favorite sentence these days is: 'No. I do it all by myself.' Lovely.







Fun at NaNa and PaPa's House

We went to PA last weekend for Easter and to baptize Beckett. What a great and busy weekend we had! Kendall has so much fun at NaNa and PaPa's house. They got her a Big Wheel that daddy had to put together and bunk beds, too! Kendall was excited about her new bed - but was a little disappointed she wasn't able to sleep on the top bunk... I think the rule is that when she's 6, then she can sleep up there.


This swing set sure fit her a lot better last summer!!!



Reminds me of Christmas Eve...



My mom got her this apron. It's so cute - but it just wasn't realistic...so I crossed out the "Mommy's" and used a Sharpie to write "Daddy's"...

He seems to always have a beer in hand while in PA. :)


I think she was washing the water...


Sarah and I went for a quick job and afterwards Sarah had to do some yoga stretching and was teaching a very willing Kendall some poses. SO cute!!!!

Fire Station Tour

We went to the local fire station the other day with our friends and had such a great time touring the station. They put on such a great show for the kids!



Kendall and her friends Summer and Jake listening to the fireman talk about playing with fire/matches/lighters.




This picture is out of order, but I'm in a hurry, so I don't want to deal with rearranging it! Beckett had to prove he was at the tour, too!



Watching the fireman put on his scary mask

Heavy helmet!

Buckle Up! (In the fire truck)


Kendall and her friends were NOT excited about smiling for the camera!


Driving the ambulance...I'm going to be in TROUble when she turns 16!

Beckett

Just a few new pictures of Mr. Beckett over the past couple of days. I'm biased, but I just don't think a little boy could get any cuter!





Easter Bunny Craft

We had some friends over to do a little craft project for Easter and it turned out so cute! Even Beckett got in on the fun! Super fun and easy holiday craft!

Watering the Water?!

We went over to Grandma and Grandpa U.'s house after I ran a 12k race on Sunday and Kendall and Grandma had a blast watering the pond. After filling it with enough water, the two then threw buckets and buckets of rocks in to the pond. Kendall was in Heaven! She even got to see a couple of their fish who have been hiding under a rock for the last couple of months since it's been so cold!

Zoo

We went to the zoo today with my old roommates from college, Jay and Katy and their daughter and twin boys. We had so much fun and the girls had a blast together, too!

Kendall seriously fell asleep at the zoo. What kid does that?!

Tulip/Daffodil Pictures

There weren't many tulips, but I think we still got some cute pictures.
