Easter and Jacob's Birthday

This is a hodge-podge of pictures, since we haven't been very good about posting lately.  Let's just say... life's been happening, we're parents on the go!  But life has never been better :)


Here is our gorgeous girl, modeling her new "pillowcase" dress.

Graham was a champ at grabbing those Easter eggs!  He would grab one in the wet, cold grass and then let it go, so Tim would actually pick it up when we were outside.  But once we were inside where it was warmer and dry, Graham was a professional!  

They loved the Easter Bunny!  So much, in fact that Graham kept trying to go back for another picture with him :)  I have to say, they sure are adorable on his lap!

Easter morning, bright and early!  Despite the look on G's face, he was ready to go to church to see Grandma and Grandpa Horstmann.  K was a little princess, as usual.

G digging into his basket- it was loaded with books, crayons, pladough, fun cars and Little People stuff, and even a few Jelly Bellies... gotta get them started on the good stuff early!

Kennedy wasn't so thrilled with the actual basket- she has phobia issues.  But she LOVES the stuff inside!  Especially the book with the chick that has a fuzzy tummy :)

This past weekend we celebrated our nephew Jacob's second birthday!  Happy Birthday, Jacob!  He's such a big boy, and the kids love playing with their favorite boy cousin ;)  Well, okay he's the ONLY other boy for now, but they still love him! 


G-buddy getting ready to play with the other kids at the birthday party.

a rare photo opp- both boys were actually SITTING!  They both look a lot like their daddies, and I think they're both adorable.  Can't you see them getting into trouble together in a few years... 

Sweet K with Grandma Horstmann.  She was all about the snuggles that day.  Maybe that had something to do with the balloons.  I'm telling you, phobia issues!

Kennedy playing with the kids.  I think she was about to break into a tune!

Practice Makes Perfect

This week I got to babysit my nephew Jacob- twice! He's just the sweetest thing, such a good baby. Tim was jealous that I got to spend so much time with our nephew. On Friday when I was there he was really alert and turning his head toward noises. We had the tv on with Dragon Tales and Word World and he was watching the colors on the screen. When I fed him his bottle he fell asleep before I could burp him, and he just slept on my shoulder with his sweet little baby breath on my neck. It was the best part of the day, for sure.



I also got to change a few diapers, and I have to say I'm getting pretty good at it! Even the poopy ones ;P And I can make a bottle one-handed... good practice!
nap time

aren't his lips so sweet?

Introducing Jacob Steven Horstmann

Our brother and sister-in-law, Steve and Theresa, had a baby boy yesterday! He is a blessing to our family, and we are so excited to be an Aunt and Uncle. We can't wait to have one of our own, but in the meantime, we will be happy to babysit!
