1st T-ball game and a Birthday celebration!!

Wade had his very first T-ball practice/game on Saturday. To say he was excited is a understatement. He could not wait to play in his first game but he was also so excited because all of his grandparents were going to be there and Ashley and Zach. 

Josh and Chase's Dad-Jeff are the coaches and they did a great job. Of course it was a little crazy because it was the first game but it was so cute. They practiced for 30 minutes by doing stations and then they "played" for 30 minutes. My favorite part of the entire game is when anyone would hit the ball and the ENTIRE team would leave their spots and run and dive or tackle for the ball. It was so funny. Next week's practice may consist of "staying in their spots!!" Wade is playing with his best friend Chase and his other really good friend Ben. I got some great videos but here are some of my favorite pictures.

And yes my almost 4 year old wore his hat either sideways or backwards the entire time...he is just like Josh!!

We had a great day after the game. We went back to my parents house and we all walked to downtown Apex for lunch and a little shopping. I love that they moved so close to downtown. It was Wade's little family birthday celebration. After lunch he got ice cream and was thrilled! After a couple of hours downtown we went back to our house and Wade got to open his Easter gifts and birthday gifts from Nana and Poppy. He loved them and has not stopped playing with his new Ninja Turtle stuff all week.

I have this exact same picture of Wade when he was 15 months. She is only a month younger but looks so much smaller than he did :)

 Here is one happy little boy because he is getting ready to open up his birthday presents from Nana and Poppy. I wish I would have gotten a better picture of them with him while opening his gifts.

Easter Egg Hunt and the Easter Bunny

The weekend before Easter we took the kids to a Easter Egg hunt at our friends church. WK didn't really have a clue what was going on but Wade was so excited about the candy!! I have a picture of Wade when he was almost one sitting in a Easter egg pile just like this. Westin Kate is just a couple of months older than he was. 

The Monday before Spring break (3-25-13) was Wade's birthday celebration at school. He of course picked out Ninja Turtle plates and cupcakes to share with his friends.

Not so sure about this Easter Egg hunt :) I love the next picture-she LOVES to sit like this!!

Good Friday we took the kids to see the Easter Bunny. I wanted to take them when Josh was off. Wade of course did great and smiled and WK actually did pretty good too. She would not give us a smile but she didn't cry either. I LOVE this first picture of her little face. She is looking at us like-get me out of here :) Then she decides to look up at him and see what he is all about. I can't believe that she was only 8 weeks old last year when we took them. Wade told him he wanted a chocolate bunny for Easter!!

After seeing the Easter Bunny we let the kids ride the little train in the mall. Look at Josh's face in the 2nd picture. He is saying "how did I get stuck on this thing with all the kids!!" Guilty by association we told him. They all had a great time and WK was worn out and fell asleep on the way home. Now that she is almost 14 months we have been working hard to drop her morning nap. We are almost there but she is SO tired by 12-1pm. She usually makes it until then and has been napping like a champ taking 3 hour naps most days. 

And here is a random picture of my kiddo's having their favorite snack...an apple! Of course WK wants to eat hers just like her big brother.

Pictures!!

We got our pictures back last week and I was pretty happy with them. Of course I like the ones of just the kids better :) Here are a few of my favorites...
