Our Easter Festivities

 We had a great Easter! Started out the week by dying Easter eggs.... Brysen mainly just ate cheetos and watched:)   I chose to blow my eggs out so we could give them as gifts, I tell ya, Egg dying was sure alot more enjoyable when Mom did all the preparation and cleanup!

Brysen Supervising:)


Getting in on the Action!



On Saturday we visited the Easter Bunny in Ocheyedan, no tears, but he wasn't the fondest of him!

The little things

Well we got a taste of Spring and Brysen sure loved it!  Last weekend I came home from work to find him outside with daddy filthy as ever! It sure is a good thing he has those daddy days, cause I don't think this momma would ever be able to sit back and watch him get that dirty:)

He also got his "big boy" carseat this week and his 7th tooth popped through!!

People are so true when they say time flies by when you have kids!  Brysen is now 10 months old and I do not know where the time has gone!!   It saddens me to know that we will soon be celebrating his 1st Birthday, I just want him to stay my little baby forever:)
I've already started with the birthday planning and we're thinking a baseball theme since it's prime Twin's Season! I'm planning on a simple meal of hot dogs, nachos, fruit, etc and of course Cake!   I just can't decide if I'm going to buy the cake or tackle it myself (if you don't know already, I really don't like to cook at all)! 

Brysen is continuing to keep us on our toes!  (So far since I've just been typing I've managed to catch him digging in the garbage and attempting to climb the stairs)! He's not walking but attempts to stand on his own and walks around anything he can.  He is starting to say a few more words and continuously "patty cakes", signs "all gone" and his newest thing is to blow kisses:)   This past Wednesday he had his 2nd haircut already!   Didn't really sit any better than his 1st one, just very curious as to what aunt Jill is doing to him! 
He has gotten a taste of outside and loves it!  I think this summer will be a blast with him, if this weather ever decides to warm up!!

                                       Brysen's Toy Room after I just cleaned it the morning before!

This is how I found him in his toyroom!

He weighs about 24 1/2 pounds already!  He has really got an appetite lately!  Baby food is a thing of the past for the most part and he is all about real people food.... Some of his favorites are french fries, mac and cheese, pancakes and pasta!
He continues to entertain everyone, he especially loves kids!  His daycare leader always says he's the comedian of his room( I can only imagine)!  

Yesterday afternoon we rode along with Brian to do chores. He got new pigs in on Tuesday and Wednesday and Brysen got to meet them!   He liked looking from afar but wasn't into getting close to them.
Checking out his new toy!  Hoping he won't be riding it for awhile, but his daddy says otherwise:)
Brysen had Easter pictures taken on Saturday, he did great as usual!   Brian says I have his pictures taken way too much but it's so hard not to when he's so darn photogenic:)   Here's a couple previews....
