Easter with Ellie

Of course, everyone loves to shop for a little girl (and I appreciate it!). Here's Ellie in a few of her Easter outfits from grandparents.








Silly Grayson



So...Grayson always seems to be coming up with creative entertainment. I thought finger painting at snack time would keep him occupied for a bit. Well, it did...in an interesting way! Snack time (trail mix) in finger paints...hmmmm! Never a dull moment with this little man!

Busy with the Boys


Tait had his first soccer game of the spring season. He's definitely grown from last season! And Grayson is now all about it too. He had to wear a uniform like his brother (good thing we have Tait's uniform from the fall).


"I'm in the Lord's army! Yes, sir!"



Backyard Easter egg hunt with our buddies, the Swineharts. The boys love eggs, but this mama will be glad when we don't have them all over the house and yard!

Ellie Girl


We're so thankful for this little girl! She's been such a sweet baby...even giving her mama some great stretches of sleep. Her daddy calls her "chica" and her mama calls her "Ellie girl". The boys have been calling her lots of cute names:
"pretty sister"
"little sister"
"beautiful girl"

Grayson is always keeping an eye on Ellie!


Ellie's first phone conversation with Grandma Sue!



So...we now have some pink to go around in this household! Grateful for the dear friends who have shared some girl clothes with Ellie!

ACC Basketball




Since Daddy was at the game here in Charlotte, we decided to watch a little ACC basketball ourselves (at home). Tait and Grayson lasted a little while (not until the end like Mommy would have liked:), and Ellie passed out some where in the first half. The boys sure do love their little sister! Go Tar Heels! (We're still Big 10 fans first though.)

Crazy Brothers


So grateful for Uncle Marky Boy!




Never a dull moment with these two monkeys!

Grandma Sue and Egg Hunts




We loved having Grandma Sue here for a week after Ellie was born. So grateful for good help!
