Last night!

Last night did not work as well as we had hoped. He lasted for about four hours. Then wanted one of us to sleep with him but he never could calm down to fall back to sleep. So after an hour he asked to go back in his crib. We will keep on trying and won't give up on him. Maybe by his birthday he will be sleeping in his big boy bed.

Spending the night in his BIG BOY BED!

Well I think we might be able to get rid of the crib. He has taken a nap and spent the night in is big boy bed.




Well I don't have a little boy any more, he is growing up.

Oh yeah I know we need to get him a real bedspread set. We will just didn't think it would be this soon.

Stephen took his first nap in his big boy bed!

Well we put a big boy bed in Stephen room about 3 weeks ago hoping that would help him get use to being in one. We started giving him his milk at night and reading to him every night and at nap time in his bed. He started last week wanting to stay in his bed but we did not have his bed rails yet. We got his bed rail this weekend. I went ahead and let him stay in his bed for his nap. We will have to see how well it goes from here on out. Let's see if he will sleep in his bed at night or his crib. I am happy that he is growing up but sure seems a lot faster then I thought it would be.

Easter

This was Stephen frist Easter Egg Hunt and it was in our neighbor hood. Anyone that wanted to join the egg hunt helped by suplying prizes or candy for the hunt. I hate to say I did not get any photos of this one because I was having to show Stephen how to pick up the eggs and put them in the bag and Drew was trying to video tape it.



This is what the Easter bunny left Stephen at the house. Then he also left him some eggs in another room with another basket with more toys.



These are photos of Stephen at an Easter Egg Hunt in the town square. I think that there where about 30+ kids at this one. He did a great job after he walked to the center of the square and started to pick them up.







Here Stephen is with what he got at this Easter Egg Hunt. To our surpise he walked out of there with a lot of candy.




This is Easter Day at Drew's Grandparents house. This is Stephen with his cousin Makayla before the party got started.



This time dad helped with the Easter Egg Hunt at his Grandparents house.







Again Stephen made out with a lot of eggs for this hunt.

Our newest visitors to our little Lake Larrick!

We really do not have a Lake Larrick. We just have a really low area in our yard that we plain on filling this year. We have never had visitors in it before but this year I guess it is low enough now for us to have guests.


The dogs were asking to go out so I went to put there collars on and looked out side to my surprise we had two ducks in the yard.



Then I let the dogs out and if you look hard you will see them flying a way very quickly as Angel ran after them.


Then later that day I looked out to see if they had come back and they did. Then Next I noticed that they were gone and we had two geese in the yard. What a very exciting day.
