Wesley is so cute when he laughs that I had to share this photo.
He loves to hang on to the side of the coupe while his sister tries to get away from him as fast as she can. He just laughs the whole time.

Washing the coupe
Last night Lizzie was using a rag on her coupe. When I asked her what she was doing she said "Mommy, I am washing my coupe." If you guys don't know, Cody washes our cars every weekend and keeps them in awesome condition. I guess that it has 'rubbed' off on her.

Pictures for daddy
Lizzie got a new dress this week and wanted to take pictures to show her daddy.
She even had to sit in the window and pose for some.
Where did she learn to be such a ham?
Wesley just played and didn't pay his sister any attention. He was too preoccupied.

Whistleing Dixie
When we are at my mothers house the kids find lots of fun in the kitchen cabinets. In fact I have taken anything and everything out of Wesley's hands just this week. He can open the cabinet locks, but only does it at moms. He doesn't play in ours. Which is fine by me. :)
Last night Lizzie got out some straws and started making her own music. Wesley thought that he would give it a try. It was the cutest thing ever. At first he tried and tried and just ended up humming and thinking that alone was funny. Before too long, he had it down and they were both whistleing away.
Oh, and of course Lizzie had to dance around as she whistled.
I still can't believe that he will be one in exactly 2 weeks. He is my darling. :)

Outside is so much fun!!!
Each day last week after getting home we were able to spend some quality time in the back yard. Wesley has decided that he wants to slide down the slide. He also loves grass and going for walks in the wagon.
Lizzie is much at home in her sand box. I think that she would play there all day long if we would let her.
With Cody gone to Texarkana again, Lizzie wanted to take a picture to send her daddy. She loves to be in a dress and last night she danced around in her dress to Dancing with the Stars. She really is a girly girl.
In a previous blog I talked about Wesley getting inside the tupperware cabinet and playing. It is so much cuter to see the picture than just trying to visualize it on your own.
ENJOY!!!!

11 months old
Sunday was Wesley's 11 month birthday. He is really growing into the cutest little man ever. He is momma's boy and is sooooo cute. He follows his big sister everywhere and life as we know it is bound to change before he turns one, because on Saturday he took a few steps. He is opening cabinets and likes to play in the dishes. Last week he got in moms tupperware cabinet and stood up to look around. I think that she got a picture, but I didn't.
He still only has four teeth, but I know that more are on the way. He has the most gorgeous blue eyes and it is so sad when he gets little crocodile tears. He loves to take wagon rides and has just experienced playing in the grass. He has turned into a pretty good passenger in the car because he watches what his sister is doing. She likes to sing to and from my moms house every morning and he just watches her.
He will eat anything in sight. He loves crackers and vienna sausage. He also loves his yogurt and cheerios. He puts his hand in his mouth when he gets sleepy and every now and then it is just the thumb.

He puts his hand in his mouth when he gets sleepy and every now and then it is just the thumb. He and Lizzie have started playing more. He loves to play with her kitchen and with her coupe (the little flintstone car). He also loves blocks and cars. I think that he might grow to love baseball because he also likes to hurl things across the room and plays with a toy bat.
We are having a hard time getting him to understand not to beat on the table at dinner. We are working on it constantly.
I cannot believe that he will be one in less than a month. I guess that with all that has happened since he was born...it just made it fly by so much faster...I love my little man.
Galveston
This past weekend we made a trip to Galveston with the entire Brown Family to celebrate my Aunt Rose's birthday. I took off on Friday and we made the trip down there on Thursday night. It is the longest drive that I have made by myself with the little ones and a teenager...I had my brother with me for entertainment.
On Friday we went to the Rainforest Cafe on the Seawall with my parents. It was a lot of fun. Lizzie hated the gorillas, but Wesley loved them.
Saturday was too windy to go down to the beach which was a block away from our beach house. Sunday morning was a lot nicer so Cody and I took Lizzie down to the beach before leaving for home. I love the pictures that I got of Lizzie.
She wasn't sure about the water, but she did love playing in the sand.

Easter
So...I am sorry that these pics are all out of order. This first one if actually from the Saturday before Easter. If you read the last post, we went to an Easter Egg hunt and this was what the ride home looked like. 
I love our family pic from Easter morning, except the fact that I look like an Easter Egg.
This was what the Easter Bunny left us.
Here is Wesley in his basket. I did this with Lizzie her first Easter and was bound and determined to do the same with Wesley...problem...this was the only cute picture out of about 25 tries. He actually hated it. Doesn't look like it here.
The Easter Bunny left a trail of Easter Eggs from Lizzie's room to the baskets. It was cute seeing her walk around the corner with sleepy eyes and a hand full of eggs saying "Daddy, help." She didn't want to put them down even though they were empty.
The Bunny left Lizzie and Wesley some baby chicks at the Brown house. Wesley didn't care, but Lizzie was very excited and loves her baby chicks.
Had to try and get one of her too, but first I had to find a basket big enough.
They were precious. Lizzie's hat is the best part. I paid a dollar for it last year at Target and it has lasted two Easter's and many dress ups.

Other Easter Prep
Saturday was a fun filled day and we took a lot of pics in our home. My little man is just adorable and I still feel like I don't get many pics of him since he loves to sleep so much. He goes down for bed at 8pm and sleeps until 8am. He then naps from 10-12 and again from 2-4:30. It seems like he is always asleep or smiling...one of the two.
He is such a good eater now too. He is pretty much eating everything that we eat. His Aunt Jamie gave him a lemon at dinner the other night...and he liked that too. He turns his nose up at baby food.
Saturday evening we went to a huge Easter Egg Hunt at Ryan and Christine Lee's house. It is hard to believe that I have known them for over 10 years now and they have seen the many sides of me. Their two sons are a little older than my kids, but there were kids of all ages there so it didn't matter. Wesley hung out with mommy since he wasn't big enough to do much.
Lizzie got a basket full of eggs and was sooooooooo excited. She would pick them up and shake them and would get mad when someone had already taken the candy out. She would put the empty egg in her basket anyway.
She also played the drums a little bit. I just love this picture. One of my students told me that it looks like it should be on a magazine cover....Rolling Stones, maybe?
Oh yeah, the bunny cake wasn't enough for the weekend. I also took the opportunity Saturday morning to make Lizzie a bunny pancake. It was the easiest thing in the world, but she loved it. She loves blueberries and strawberries and she calls whip cream her 'tastey treat.' I thought that it would be easier to do this on Saturday since I knew we would be moving quickly on Sunday morning to make it to church.

Good Friday 2010
Good Friday was full of many activities for us this year. Cody came home late Thursday night and since we had not been home in what seemed like many weeks...there was a lot to do.
Lizzie and I finally finished the sandbox that we had started over Spring Break. She loves it, but wants to wear her garden gloves when she plays in the sand, which is just fine by me.
Lizzie has missed her dress up clothes since we have been at moms so much. She has on her princess skirt with her chef clothes over it. Is this Cinderella???? I missed the pic of her with her duck house shoes on too.
It was very windy at our house that day so we took the opportunity to get out the kite for a little bit. We really do have the perfect location to fly a kite. The wind comes across the street from the golf course and makes it to our house like no other.
Oh yeah...she had to fly the kite in her princess skirt. I wonder what the neighbors think.
Later in the evening there were two more activities planned just for Liz. We first had to dye Easter Eggs. She loves this part of the Easter Holiday.
Finally...we made our Easter Bunny cake and shared it with the neighbors. I literally woke Lizzie from her nap, showed her the cake and then called Jim and Janice over to take the ears. :)
Wesley was a good sleeper on Good Friday so there wasn't many pics of him today.
