Birthday Beach Trip

My mom and I decided to take Elle to the beach at Ocean Springs on her 3rd birthday. We played on the beach, hit up all the playgrounds, and had a good time. Elle's class after celebrating her bday with cupcakes

Jay's 6 month check-up

He's a whopping 16lbs (20%)and 26.5 inches (51%). He tore that paper on the table apart and scooted all over it. He is now saying Ba Ba and scoots anywhere he needs to go!

Jay's Baptism

We had Jay's baptism this morning at church and it was really nice. He acted like an angel and Elle didn't have any meltdowns so it was a success! Jay wore the gown that Josh's grandmother hand made over 34 years ago and it has been worn be Josh, his sister Jenni, Elle, and now Jay. So special.

Easter Parties and Beach bunnies

We had our annual Easter egg hunt and party at canebrake. It started off with a magician, then the Easter bunny showed up, an egg hunt, and ended with a yummy buffet. There were over 100 kids there this year which was very chaotic and it didn't help that Elle decided to skip her nap that day so she was extra fun.

I had to get in the pic with the bunny b/c she wasn't too sure about him and there wasn't enough time to let her warm up to him before it was someone else's turn!

Watching the magician.....Thank goodness for Whitney b/c Elle was insisting on sitting in someone's lap and I had my hands full with Jay!
