more Spring Break FUN


Happy St. Patrick's Day!

I put out about 4 green clothes for Bekah to choose from to wear & she put them all on!:)

Sisters playing on the slide

Love how big sister is taking care of little sis

Baby's First St. Pattys Day

During our Spring Break up here we were able to both get some days off from work and go to the Frank Buck Zoo in Gainesville, TX (~30 minutes north). I was excited for Bex to be able to feed the giraffe this time! She was also really excited and we talked about it for days:) we took her a couple years ago to just look at the animals and she loved that.
Here is the giraffe we are about to feed. We were lucky and just had 1 other kid there to feed when we did.

Up close

Feeding the giraffe his lettuce

Bex kept talking about his purple tongue:)

As you can see she was super excited!!

Next off to feed the goats...this is a pic of the biggest goat that would stick his whole head out and not really share with the smaller goats.

Here you can see how big he really is

Bex is feeding

The big goat would hit his hoof on the fence to feed him

Daddy taking his turn

here are a couple of the smaller ones that we would run to feed before the big one got there:)

Spring Break FUN

Some highlights of March:
Rebekah is writing her name so good now!
Here is a picture she drew of a lobster with the bands on.
I have to give a back story on this one....for my birthday dinner we went to Red Loster. While there a server asked Bex if she wanted to touch a lobster. At first she was not going to try it but then during dinner she said she wanted to.....so needless to say she screamed as soon as they pulled the lobster out and I felt like a terrible mother. I explained to her over and over that they could not pinch her since they had rubberbands on their claws.
So here is her interpretation
Pretty good!
Here she is acting like a lobster
Livia playing
Rebekah's teacher put her hair up in ponytails

It was great to have my parents come up for the last half of their spring break! I took some days off from work and we just enjoyed hanging out. The weather was great so here we are playing in the backyard. Grandpa is pushing Rebekah in the tire swing! She loved it!

I just had to show her long eyelashes.....thanks daddy!

Our Lovebug is 6 months!

Our sweet Livia Lovebug is already 6 months old! She is growing so fast and seems to grow faster than Rebekah did in milestones...course she has an older sister to watch:) Liv is such a laid-back baby and a great sleeper. We feel so lucky to have such great babies! At her 6month check-up she weighed 17.8# and 28 1/4 in long. Head 44 1/2 in. At 4 months she was >90% in ht,wt &head. She is our long and lean girl!
