The Easter Bunny Made An Early Delivery At Our House This Year

We surpirsed Austen with a bunny this year! He is the cutest little Holland Lop I have ever seen, so I couldn't resist....luckily Brian was on board! Austen chose to name him Ollie and he is fitting in nicely with our family......so far.

Brian really loves him even if he pretends not to.

Soakin Up The Sun And A Craft Day

Austen is loving preschool so much and I am shocked at how quickly he is learning his letters. In fact on the days that he doesn't have school he gets sad, so I try and do little activities with him to keep him from getting bored and getting into too much trouble.

This pic is unrelated to this post, but I had to include it because I think it's so cute!

Here's our craft of the day last week.....we made a huge mess, but had lots of fun!
And the finished product.....he wanted an angry butterfly.

Hero Worship

Austen is just a little obsessed with his Daddy and who can blame him? Brian is seriously the BEST kind of Dad there is.

They love to take boys only trips to Home Depot and to rent movies and Austen LOVES for Brian to tell him "stories from your mouth" as Austen calls it. (These are stories you make up as opposed to reading from a book.) They are so cute together it's just ridiculous!

Austen seriously wanted to go to the store with Brian in these shoes the other day.

How cute is this story time pic? I love it!

Happy Face

When Austen isn't getting in to things, he's a lot of fun!!! He has Brian and I laughing pretty much non stop. We love to all get on the bed (even the dog) and play. Here are some pics from our last play time.

Austen Has Stealth For A Super Power

I have definitely learned by now that I can't have Austen anywhere I can't see him, I can't turn my back on him, and I definitely can't trust him in another room by himself (especially bathrooms) but I have learned this week that I can't even put my head down when he's right in front of me.

I had a cracked bottle of nail polish out on the counter in the kitchen so I would remember to take it back to the store. I was in the kitchen shredding chicken and Austen was standing up to the pony bar on a chair watching a show on T.V. Or so I thought. I put my head down to shred the chicken and within a few seconds I started to smell nail polish. When I looked up he had already painted all the nails on one whole hand. I'm telling you he is the fastest kid ever.....and quiet too. I didn't hear one single thing. Stealthy I tell ya!

And not too bad at painting nails.

Spring Is Here!

I am so happy that it's finally starting to warm up! We are sick of being stuck inside and Austen is ready to be free to run and run and run.

I took him to the park yesterday and he had a great time playing on all the stuff there. He is a little monkey this year climbing on everything!

Sunday Happenings

We love Sunday around here.....we are usually very lazy and I am not (or amn't as Austen likes to say) ashamed to admit it. We had a great Sunday yesterday filled with a few projects around the house, family, awesome food, and of course a bubble bath.
