April 2011

4/2/11-  EB and I had a Saturday to ourselves (Andrew was fishing).  So, we went on a stroll through the neighborhood, and then...

...Eva Brooke had her first Toys R Us AND buggy-riding experience.

4/3/11 was a very warm Sunday, so we spent time outside on the patio.

She got to use her bathtub as a swimming, or should I say, SPLASHING pool!

She really loves the water!

4/6/11- Likes to take over Cotton's bed

Mrs. Angie teaching Bible class on Wednesday night

Daddy's girl

She is fascinated by her carseat, especially the little leveling ball on the side.


4/17/11- Sleeping through church.  This does not happen often, so Andrew snapped a picture!

4/18/11- Figured out how to turn on the light on the pack and play.  She is going to love gadgets just like her Daddy.

4/19/11- Sweet, tired baby

4/20/11- We are starting to be OK with the ever-present mess in the floor!

She also loves music...

...and going outside!  She cries to go out with Cotton!


The hail from one of our numerous storms lately.

She will go for anything these days.

Going through Mommy's purse

Cotton is such a good sport.  EB really wants the tag on her collar.

4/23/11- If she can't be outside, she wants to look outside.

I'm pretty sure she just picked something off the floor and ate it.

4/24/11- Reaching for Andrew's laptop.  The power button has a bright green light, and she always goes right for it!

4/25/11- I love this girl!

Mouthing

Anyone else's kids do this?  Eva Brooke likes to put her open mouth against everything, i.e. my face, the carpet, my hair, refrigerator, Cotton, etc.  I guess it is a teething thing.  If it's me, sometimes it's sweet.  If it's the trash can, eww!


My hair was good and wet after this pic


Yuck!!

EB's First Easter


We gave Eva Brooke an early Easter happy on
April 9 (basically because I found it at Sam's and had nowhere to hide it)

It is a giant elephant pillow.  It is very soft, and she likes having her cheek nestled up against something (and always has- see below).

At 10 weeks- melts my heart!

At 3 months

Eva Brooke (8 months, here) has really enjoyed the pillow.  Now we don't even need a new rug, because you can't see it anymore :)

On Easter Sunday, 4/24/11

Andrew planted some new things around the front and back yards, and they are looking great.



Our roses have been gorgeous this year!


Love them!


The Easter Bunny brought her a Looney Tunes DVD and some plastic eggs (a big hit)

Mimi monogrammed Eva Brooke's name on her Easter basket


So surprised

Just daring to pull up on those shutters!

They were both feeling unusually affectionate this day.

Peek-a-boo!




Happy Easter!

Now ready for a nap!
