Easter in Vegas

This year for Easter we went to Las Vegas with my family. We met Jason and Claudia there and had a great weekend in the sun. The minute we got there the kids were ready to hit the pool.

Taggart loved when Uncle Brody threw him in the air!

This was Parker's first time swimming and he loved it! We dunked him a few times and he didn't even care.

We loved floating around the lazy river in the tubes. It was very relaxing and could have done it all day long! Maddie did great swimming and is getting more daring every day. She would put her head under the water and try to swim. It was good practice for this summer.

Daddy snuggling with Parks. He was such a good boy the entire vacation.

We hardly saw Taggart the entire time we were at the pool. He spent most of his time under the water... he is such a fish!

On Easter Sunday we went to church in Las Vegas.


Then we came home and the kids found their Easter baskets.

We colored Easter eggs and did a couple Easter crafts, thanks to Auntie Claudia. We also frosted sugar cookies and had a big Easter egg hunt. The kids loved it and found a ton of eggs filled with even more candy!









Parker is 9 months old now!! He weighs 21 lbs 8 oz (69%) and is 28.7 inches long (65%), so he is a healthy little boy!

He continues to be such a happy, content baby. He loves his siblings and is always laughing at them when they pay attention to him.

He loves the bath. He gets so excited everytime that he almost falls over because he is splashing so hard! Just look at all those rolls! How darling are they?

We just barely stopped swaddling him when he sleeps, but isn't this just the sweetest little bundle?

He loves to suck on anything and everything. Here he is chewing on his tag blanket.

When he wants something to eat or gets really excited, his wiggles his hands and feet and grabs with his little hands. It is hard to explain, but it really is the cutest thing to see. He also is very good at giving hugs and he loves pat-a-cake.
Everyone loves his beautiful blue eyes and I really hope that they stay this color.
We love him sooo much and can hardly get enough of him! Can't believe he is almost a year old!
