Opening Day 2009

Well today was the official opening day for Baseball. Yesterday was opening day but only 2 teams played so we counted today the day!!
So in honor of Opening day, I had Brady and Jaylee take pictures in their Cubs gear!! Brady LOVES the cubs and we found this adorable little dress for Jaylee and had to get it for her. She needs to be a cubs fan with her Daddy!! I know there's a bunch of pictures but this was only a few of my favorites from the pics we took!! They really turned out cute!! And Jaylee I think really likes being a cubs fan with her Daddy!! She loved the dress and didn't want to take it off!! It was way cute!!!
Just a note-don't mind Jaylee's shoes. She got these clogs for her birthday and she is obsessed with them. She wants to wear them EVERYWHERE!! So we let her wear them so she wouldn't be in a bad mood for pictures!!

I guess there's only one thing left to say,
Go Cubs!!

The worst part about Fantasy Baseball...

So this is the only thing about Fantasy Baseball that I don't like, Brady spends a LOT of time on the computer!! I'm glad he enjoys it so much but I do love to give him a hard time!!

Last night Jaylee crawled up in his lap while he was checking out his team and she just sat there and watched everything that he was doing and he explained to her what he was going to do. It was so adorable!! My heart took a picture!! I love watching this man with his little girl!!

He's such a WONDERFUL father!! I love you, Brady!!

Happy Birthday Aunt Brittany!!!

She has such a special birthday with so many wonderful things that have taken place on the 6th, but it's fitting that it's her birthday too!! You are so special to us!! We LOVE you and hope you have a great birthday!! Eat some cake for us!!

Nikki's Baptism

Our niece Nikki was baptized a week ago, and since I forgot our camera we had to steal a pic from my sister. Hey I took most of them anyway so it's all good!!
Jaylee decided that she wanted to lay down so all the other cousins had to follow her. Don't mind the plug or the doorway!!

Brian, Lizzi, Jaylee, Adam and Nikki

We are so proud of you Nikki and the choice you made to be baptized!!
We Love you and are glad we were able to spend this special day with you!!

Egg-Stravaganza

Our town had the annual Egg-Stravaganza this morning and Jaylee and I decided to go check it out!! It was a mad house and I'm not sure that I would go again!!
It was CRAZY!! Between the pushing parents in the egg-hunt and the older kids taking over everything so the little kids couldn't enjoy all the fun games, I think waiting for the family egg hunt and Easter celebration is a better idea!! Jaylee liked the idea of it until it was time for everything to get going!! She was happiest just climbing up and down the stairs and twirling in the grass!!

They had a petting zoo area and Jaylee loved the little chicks!!

The Easter Bunny made a surprise visit!! Jaylee wanted nothing to do with him though!!

She was all about getting the eggs while no one was out there, but that all changed once everyone was trying to get the eggs!!

Jaylee decided to take a little rest before the egg-hunt started!! She was on the front row and kept getting closer and closer to the eggs as she waited!!

She picked up 3 on her own but a little girl gave her a couple more!!
All I can say is I hate parents that don't let their children get the eggs and they do it for them!!
There was this one lady that RAN in the under 3 group and grabbed all the eggs she could, pushing kids away from them!! It's just crap!! We're looking forward to the family egg hunt without the crazy parents to push kids out of the way!!
