Mow the Lawn

We were finally able to mow the backyard for the first time Thursday and the girls wanted to help Dad so bad.

Eric was having such a hard time trying to hold Brylee and maneuver the mower at the same time so I so thoughtfully went and got him the little carrier. I don't think he thought it was such a great idea at first but he was able to have the little ones help and it made it easier.

Kimberlen thought it was a good idea to roll around on the grass in her white leggings and ended up getting grass spots all over her clothes and her arms so I made her get in the tub right before this.

I think they must make mowers with that extra bar for this exact reason. The kids need somewhere to push too!

Easter

Ya I know I am behind the rush of Easter posts by others, but hey now you all have something new to look at. Also my battery went dead during the decorating process so all of the pictures are on her camera.

We went to my Parents on Friday to do our celebrating and egg coloring. Here is Hudson and Maycee making a mess, Oh, I mean coloring eggs! They had so much fun this year, it great to watch them. We too as others have mentioned, had a bunch of broken eggs in the end and not enough.

Brylee cheese!! She just wanted to eat them.

Grama Robin and Brylee.

The Easter gift from Grandma and Grandpa Metcalf were these fun wiggle cars. It didn't take them long to figure out how they worked, and they are sure fun.

Ayson just liked the paper and the plastic.

Our finished products....

The freezing Sat. morning egg hunt. I felt like we were dressing to go sledding it was so cold and windy but the girls loved it.

Brylee bundled up.

The girls with the treasures. I made Kimberlen go with the 5-6 year olds because I couldn't see where her age group was from were I needed to be with Maycee and she said she was going to do that again next year....silly girl, next year will be twice the fight, ha ha.

Easter morning I video recorded the baskets opening so here are a few during the egg hunt. Kimberlen un-patiently waiting for Maycee to find an egg so she could find some more.

Maycee finding another egg with the coaching from Dad.

I think Brylee thought the grass was the best part.

Throwing Fits!

I thought that we had a while til Brylee started acting like the other two girls. Boy was I wrong. My girls must be good teachers or else this is a natural instinct in my house. Brylee was playing with books and kept trying to hold two in one hand. When it didn't work out so well this was the result....

Quiet Time....Ya Right!

This is Maycee watching a movie in her room. Lately she is obsessed with the Princess'. Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty and Snow White are her favorites. She has to make sure that her bed is made just right and the blankets are layed out flat.
This is how Brylee watches with her. She will stand there and laugh or yell at Maycee until she talks to her.

Easter 2010

These are the Girl's Easter Pictures this year. It is getting harder and harder to get them all to look at the camera and smile a real smile. So these are the best we got.
And this is all the cousins. Not an easy task to get this one taken. We had a few good laughs and a couple moments of frustration, but in the end it worked out pretty well.

Brylee's Photo's

Brylee's 1st Birthday

We had a great party for Brylee's first Birthday. She had a bunch of family and friends come to wish her a Happy Birthday. I think she enjoyed every minute of it especially eating her cake. And the bath in the sink that followed the cake eating.

Sleep-over at Grandmas

Nothing better than powder donuts for breakfast.
She really enjoyed them.

And a trip or two in the hot tub. The other girls got in so quick I didn't manage to get their picture. But here is Brylee in Maycee's old swim suit. We don't have a teeny one at grandmas yet.

This is Maycee's after tub hair. I thought the curl on her forehead was hilarious.

Silly Girls

Here are a few of our silly girls. Maycee playing dress up and wearing her new headband.
Kimberlena nd Maycee being mommies.

Brylee decided she was tired on Valentines and just didn't want to wake up.

Here she is in her favorite position.
