Easter 2012

We had to wait for Alyssa to go to bed before we could begin dying Easter eggs.  Usually, the Easter Bunny just leaves the plastic filled ones but we thought this year it would be fun to dye & decorate them!

Let the Easter Egg hunting begin!

I taught the pre-k Sunday School class that morning with Andrew and after church, we tried to take a few pictures of the kids dressed up.  Although they look precious, it didn't go exactly as planned....

Oh well - better luck next year! :)

X Box

Andrew LOVES video games!! X-Box, Nintendo DS, Wii, games on our Android phones - it doesn't matter!  Like big brother, little sister Alyssa must do!  I thought this was cute.  And by the way, Alyssa doesn't have many words at this point...but she can say X-Box! :)

Stuffed Animal Hospital

Introducing Dr. Andrew Davlin, Waco's finest stuffed animal doctor! :)

Dallas in April

On April 3rd, I had a meeting in Dallas so we got to go stay the night at the Omni.  After my Tuesday meeting, we had the day off to explore and hang out in Dallas. 

We checked out of our hotel, had lunch at Breadwinners and then heard tornado sirens.  There were tornadoes all around us and we had sunshine and a few raindrops!! We headed over to Presbyterian hospital where Nanny had been admitted.  We hunkered down until the storms blew over and once the rain stopped - it was a lovely evening!! We met Brenda, Mike, Ethan & Isaac for dinner and then headed to our hotel at the Hotel Intercontinental. 

The next day we had a yummy sushi lunch (Andrew's favorite!) at Blue Fish where Sammy worked before heading to the Dallas Aquarium.  It was a lot of fun with hands on activities including feeding the stingrays!

Our Budding Photographer

Our Andrew is definitely a budding photographer.  Anytime he finds one of our cameras, he runs around the house shooting pictures of random things as shown below:

 

Quack Quack Bathtime

On a few occasions, we bathe the kids together.  They have fun and it knocks bathtime in half :)  This was one of the last times we got to use old Quackie though.  He got a hole in him shortly after :(

Pretty Ballerina!

One afternoon while Andrew and David were hanging out, Alyssa and I decided to take pictures.  Such a pretty ballerina! :)

Here is where the really silly time began... loving on that Hippo! :)

Here I think she was trying to dig in the hippos mouth...not sure...

Alyssa, here you are loving on your baby Hippo..."Awwww" is what you would say while patting your babies! You LOVE your babies! Sooo sweet!
