Bunny Boys

We took Lincoln's picture with the Easter Bunny his first Easter, so to keep things even and for the sake of picture comparisons, here is Sutton with the bunny, too.

Love this sweet boy. Even though he loves to play outside, getting dirty and sweaty, he still loves to dress up and "look handsome". Can't wait to see both my boys in their Easter Sunday best

Bluebonnets

We headed out to take some Bluebonnet pics, but it was sooooo windy and Sutton wasn't really having it. We took a few and headed home. In the car, I was scrolling through the pics and saw some really good ones. Of course, I didn't do a great job shooting b/c I assumed they would turn out poorly with the wind, etc. My friend Jennifer from high school edited a few for me (taking out some shadows and hiding Lincoln's phantom foot over his head). She has a photography business in Florida and is very talented. I can't thank her enough for taking the time to share her talent with me, gratis. Check out her work here.

PS: Could they be any cuter?

St. Patrick's Day Blake Style

In keeping with my "we don't wear character/screen tees" stance, I opted for creativity this St. Patrick's Day. Suspenders for Lincoln and a green, sequin bow tie for Sutton. They looked great and thanks to the $1 bins at Target, only cost me $2.00!

Dinner is served!

Sleepy time

I've got some seriously happy kids. Little Sutton was smiling while he slept the other night.

And in other news, Sutton is rolling all over the place. He's been rolling tummy to back for sometime now, but has just started rolling back to tummy and over and over and over. He cleared half the family room the other night. However....STILL NOT SITTING UP:)

Cookies

Sutton and Daddy taken last night before bed. Sutton is so interested in life right now that he hates to be in his carseat, or out of eyesight. He wants to be smack dab in the middle of everything. Hum...wonder where he gets it?!?!

After bath with Daddy

Lincoln's cookies

Proud and back in order

Trying them out

The older Lincoln gets the more I'm reminded of just how special this time is. He is such a sponge, picking up on jokes, sarcasm, inside jokes, accents, etc. It's funny to watch. He is also asking more and more questions about Jesus, the Bible, etc. We've been talking about being kind and helping others. We made cookies for some friends who have recently brought home new babies. I want him to serve others and not always look for people to serve him. He has such a sweet little heart that he is anxious to help. He has also been a mama's boy A LOT lately which is just fine with me.

St. Patrick's Day Dinner

Lincoln spent the night with my parents today, but when he comes home, his dinner will be magically delicious!

JOY!

I never would have thought in a million years that Sutton could be as cute, sweet or funny as his big brother. This little guy the best smile; it takes over his whole face. He is cuddly, a great eater and falls asleep like a champ...staying asleep is another story. We are soaking up every minute because he will be six months old next week! Love this baby boy!

Finding his toes

Got it!

Love this one, toes and fingers! Guess who taught him this one?

Smily!

Trying out his new swing

No I Will Not Take a Nap

So........we are up and down with naps around here. Most weeks we can squeeze 3-4 naps in, particularly on Monday and Tuesday, after busy weekends. So, some days he goes down easy and other days we just rest. Sunday, after declaring he wasn't tired and didn't need a rest, Ryan found him here. Ryan panicked at first b/c with the light off, you couldn't see him at all. Love this little boy!
