Brecken {19 Weeks Old}

Brecken is 19 weeks old and full of giggles.  He loves to watch Chesney play and has now started giggling at her.  I'm talking full belly laughs.  It might be the sweetest thing I've ever seen!
 Happy 19 weeks my little giggly man.  Love you so much!

Chesney's 1st Big Haircut

Chesney's hair has become a mess to manage.  It gets tangled so easily since it is getting long. So, today we decided to take her to get it cut.
 
 The picture below makes me want to cry. I love those curls.
 
 Here she is with her shorter hair.  I'm so hoping her curl stays.

Brecken {18 Weeks Old}

Oh my little man, you are growing up so quickly.  You are such a happy little man and love to coo and smile! Nothing makes me happier than kissing and hugging you.
 
 Happy 18 weeks little love.

Worn Out

Last weekend, Grammy & Grampy came down for Brecken's baptism.  Chesney was already tired from the baptism on Saturday, but Grammy & Grampy did their best to burn some energy with Chesney before they left on Sunday.
  Brecken got this pony for his baptism (from Kate, Kyle & Payten), but Chesney is breaking it in for him.  Grampy decided to race on the bouncy cow.
 Then they played some Wheels on the Bus while we cleaned up breakfast dishes.
 After everyone was ready, we headed to Palmer Park.  Chesney loves this park!
 Brecken just peaked out of his car seat and then fell asleep.
 Chesney spent most of the time on at the older part of the park with the classic metal slide. It's "speedy fast" as she likes to say.
 
 
 
 So much fun that she was worn out!

Brecken's Baptism

Brecken was baptized on Saturday, May 11, 2013.  I love that he was baptized on Mother's Day weekend (just like his sister was).  We invited the family over for lunch before the baptism.
 
 Brecken got some supper cute gifts including this print.
 Getting ready for his baptism.
 Such a happy man!  Brecken wore the same outfit his daddy wore for his baptism 31 years ago.
 
 Jon, Tanya and Emma and Kate, Kyle and Payten were there too, but we didn't get any pictures of them.  Thanks to all of them for making the long drive. These 3 were on their best behavior. 
 Grammy, Grampy, Brecken and Chesney.
 Grandma, Grandpa, Chesney and Brecken.
 Aunt Jessie and Uncle Jeremy are Brecken's Godparents.
 
 
  Big sister was so excited for Brecken to get baptized.  She kept asking when he was going to get baptized as the Priest was starting the service.
 
Father Randy was so sweet to involve Chesney in the baptism too.
 
 
 He did it and without tears.
 Father Randy, thank you for baptizing our little guy.
Our precious family!

 Took in everything your big sister had to share.
 Rolled from your back to tummy (May 2, 2013).
 Got baptized at St. John Vianney Church (May 11, 2013).
 Helped mommy celebrate Mother's Day.
 And made this family even happier.
