Happy Easter!!!!!!

Lila and Brendan had a great 1st Easter! They were the stars of the show with all of their aunties, uncles, cousins and grandparents!

They were not very cooperative for pictures but you can tell how cute they looked!


Miss Lila was so pretty in pink!

Brendan loved Papa's watch!

I love this picture - holding hands!

Everyone else wanted to get in on the action!


This was a few Fridays ago - Lila was loving hanging out with all of her toys!

Brendan was standing when we went in to get him so in typical Auntie fashion I turned around and went to grab the camera - he was not amused!


Lila and her godmama!

Auntie Beth came home for a few days at Easter and spent most of her time catching up with Lila and Brendan! Brendan even managed a few snuggles!



Auntie Beth and the twins!



Annie was getting a little jealous so she threw herself in front of the camera!



I love those sweet baby smiles for their auntie!


Brendan rarely wears clothes now that it is warm out - I just love his little belly!

His confused look!

Peter is determined to get Brendan walking so he practices with him all the time!

Look how hard his little piggy toes are straining!

Tippy Toes!

Just hanging out - no big deal!

Peter was very concerned and set up a crash site behind Brendan!

Auntie Beth getting some Lila snuggles on Easter!

I think they look alike in this picture!

Auntie Beth and her babies - Happy 1st Easter!



I'm not as good about updating any of the blogs these days so bear with me! Brendan and Lila are getting bigger everyday. Lila has 2 teeth right on the bottom and Brendan is ready to get moving any second! They love table foods like french fries, pizza crust, crackers and small pieces of fruit. They both sleep as well as can be expected considering that if one is up the other is usually disturbed! If you ask Meg they sleep for 12 hours and if you ask Tim they are both up a few times a night so I'm guessing that one parent is sleeping through the evening playtimes! They are happy babies who love to be kissed, hugged and loved on! Happy 1st Easter, Lila and Brendan! We love you!

The babies came VERY hungry so poor Uncle Bob got charged with keeping them occupid whle I made food and got the big kids out the door for school! Lizzie refused to give up her spot - even for Lila!

Our little Rock Star!

Miss Lila - giving her best smile while she waits for her food!

Brendan took a vey long nap so the girls and I all went outside for some spring fun! Lila didn't have a jacket or hat so we improvised - Annie thought she was the cutest thing ever!

Hanging on the chair with Auntie - such a big girl!


Beautiful girl - she was watching EVERYTHING!

Lizzie wanted to play with Lila!

After Lila made her escape from this blanket we went in and got 5 more so Lila would not get the grass! It did NOT work! She still ate some grass - we call it ruffage in our house!

Kisses from Annie

And she is off!

Quietly creeping so that Auntie doesn't notice!

Nothing like a good twig before lunch! I did take it away from her!

Our girl LOVES the swings. She got pushed by all of her cousins and giggled the entire time. I tried to get a video but then I had to stop pushing her feet and that was her favorite part!

Ahhhhhh - this is the life!


Bright Smiling eyes - makes my heart melt!

Brendan loving all his toys!

Lila was going for a toy!

But her brother's foot works just as well in this case!

Brendan can't figure out why he can't move - his sister is pulling on his leg!

Pretty girl - everytime I see Lila she has a little bit more hair!

Handsome boy!

Had to take this one of Lila with the Whoozit - this was, by far, my kids favorite toy when they were babies!



This was how it went when Brendan took his 2nd two hour nap and Auntie attempted to get Lila to sleep! Playtime for Auntie and Lila! She looks exhausted right?

"Bed - maybe later, Auntie!"

Love those sweet Lila smiles! I LOVED the quality time I got with Lila - I think she knew that we needed some bonding time so she stayed up ALL day to love on Auntie! It was heaven!

This is Brendan's annoyed look! The reason - everytime I gave him a mini bagel Ellie stole it from him! He was not a happy camper!
Trying to get a video of Brendan crawling! Not all that successful but at least you get the general point of how big our boy is getting!

Beautiful blue eyed girl loving her tubby!

Look at those eyes - she loves her tubbies - especially when Auntie gives her snacks while she's in there! Auntie's perrogative!


Lila still makes a mess occasionally with her cereal and I think it is adorable!

Brendan loves his seat at the big kid table with the others! He loves his puffs even more!

Brendan is totally mobile!




See you late, Auntie!
