First Bath

We gave Anthony his first bath last week and he LOVED it. This is totally unlike his older brother who cried the whole time and HATED his first bath. Anthony was so content just kicking his feet and having the water poured on him. The getting out of the tub part was not so much enjoyed, but hey, who can blame him?!
This was also the day that we realized how much Jaxon and Anthony look alike. We never thought they did until we got out Jaxon's scrapbook and looked at his baby pictures next to Anthony...yep, they are brothers for sure!

Easter 2010

Jaxon and Dad finding Easter eggs, and Jaxon with his Easter basket. The Easter bunny brought him a new outfit, LOTS of candy, and some cars from the movie Cars. That afternoon we went to my parents house for a yummy ham dinner, then came home for a nap...what a great way to spend the day!

Coloring Easter Eggs

Here we are coloring our glitter eggs for Easter this year. *Note to self: glitter eggs are messy after they are colored and leave glitter EVERYWHERE!! Don't buy this kind again!
Aside from the mess we had fun coloring our eggs. Justin and I decided that we need to boil more eggs this next Easter cause he and I have WAY too much fun coloring them and then Jaxon gets mad that he has no more to color.
*Please excuse the way I look, it was a weekend and I was like 37 weeks pregnant...enough said.

Fishing At Springlake

We have taken up the sport of fishing this spring and hope to do more of it this summer. Jaxon had a blast putting worms on the end of his spiderman fishing pole. Spiderman is the only one that caught anything, and then the dang fish got away. Justin spent more time feeding the fish than catching them...a tad frustrating for the experienced fisherman!

Here He Is...

We are so thrilled to announce the arrival of our lil man!! Anthony Jay was born Wednesday, April 21, 2010 at 7:10 a.m. weighing in at 8lbs. 12 oz. and was 21" long. Both mom and baby are doing well. I will post more about the delivery later on, but until then here are some pictures of his first day!

A Summer List

Seeing the sun out for the last 2 days has me thinking that maybe, somewhere around the corner, spring and summer are coming. Not sure exactly, but I am trying to have a positive attitude. I have been making a list of fun things to do this summer, just random things around here that would be fun to do for a day/afternoon. We will see how many we accomplish...I think I forget that we will have a new baby...but once again I am trying to be positive; and anyone who knows me (especially Justin) will tell you that I have a hard time just sitting in the house, especially on a nice day. Check out our list to the side, and feel free to add any suggestions!!

It's Official

Justin is now a full time employee at SAPA. He was offered a loader position yesterday and he accepted. Hooray for good news!! This means benefits go in to effect immediately, he gets his 2 weeks paid vacation, and a pay raise. We are so excited and it really couldn't come at a better time. Nothing like getting benefits just weeks before your baby is due, and getting vacation time so he can spend more time with us when this baby does come. We both feel better now about him being full time and feel like we can breathe a bit better. It's a lot of weight lifted off our minds, thats for sure. Now all we need to do is sit back and wait for this little man to arrive and it should be smooth sailing from there!!
