It HAD to go!!!

Our little baby boy was starting to look like a little old man-- his hair was thinning and flopping down on his forehead...

So the daddy took care of business!!!

Do you love the pink bumbo in the sink for a haircut chair-- we thought we were pretty smart!


It got so intense, the drool started comin'!

In the end this was the look Malachi was giving the daddy-- he must have caught that mom thought daddy used the wrong guard--



then mamma reassured him that hair grows-- we hope quickly :)

What have we been up to???

Breathing treatments and SICK babies!!!
Both of these sweet babies caught a NASTY virus so we have had sleepless nights, fevers, runny noses, horrible coughs, and 6 breathing treatments every day! My poor little Malachi's oxygen levels are not so great so we will be at the doctor everyday for deep suctions and oxygen tests until his level is better--- so wish us luck!






stickers are a great distraction






and even if we are wearing our pj's all day long right now, Sienna is still stylin!

Easter Eggstravaganza!!!

We have seriously been attending Easter festivities since last Monday, so here goes a million pictures!!!


EASTER EGG HUNT #1

Monday we went to Grandma & Grandpa Vawdrey's neighborhood Easter egg hunt and Sienna was in heaven!

Sienna got one egg for each hand and was set-- she was so happy just running around shaking her eggs!


Malachi was happy with the grandmas!



my cute grandma and grandpa and James



EASTER EGG HUNT #2

I forgot to take pictures but Thursday we went to my friend Lexie's parent's house for a fun little Easter party. Sienna colored her paper bag, then attempted to load all the crayons in her bag and steal them. Finally the hunt! Once again one egg for each hand and she was done. In the end she put her eggs in other kids baskets and thought it was cool- she was happy to leave empty handed, especially after all the yummy treats!



EASTER EGG HUNT #3

Saturday morning was our neighborhood hunt. Sienna demanded on walking over and took a nice little spill and skinned her knee. By the time we recovered from the fall she wanted to be back down and walking around, not one minute passes before she face-planted on the asphalt--- clumbsy morning! Finally the hunting began!


Sienna enjoying freedom!



Malachi content to be outside on a ride!



This is how most of the hunting went-- daddy's assistance!



This momma and her baby boy enjoyed watching!


EASTER MORNING

The morning started with my crazy Mexican pretending the Tortilla bunny came and brought Sienna tortillas!



As you can tell Sienna was less than enthused by the Tortilla Bunny's delivery!



But she LOVED all the goodies from the Easter bunny- especially that sticker book, oh and the funny momma wearing bunny ears!


Is this picture not classic??!?


So Sienna grabbed her new Easter purse and blew us all a kiss goodbye!

and what baby would not be stoked with this new getup??

THE ATTEMPT AT FAMILY PICTURES...

a picture of the girls ready for church


It started with Sienna running away,


then refusing to sit on a rock,


then the parents getting desperate to make her smile,


and finally you can see everyone's faces and no one is freaking out!


HUNTING & PARTYING AT GRANDMA & GRANDPA VAWDREY'S
Sunday afternoon we celebrated with the family!

Do pictures of 4 kids 4 and under get better than this??Do you love James holding the baby?


this one is pretty cute too



grandpa helping Sienna hunt


she would not pick the eggs up herself so I had to hand her every single one but at least she mastered the loading of her basket!


after the hunt Sienna just sat under this tree and unloaded and reloaded her basket all alone

bug hunting with Aunt Tami


Her cutest Easter outfit of all!

my cousin Riley was so cute playing with Malachi


and Sienna!

How to play with the baby brother...

First you have to hunt for the perfect stickers,


then get that sticker in the right spot on his face,


then get right in his face and smile- just in case he has bad eyesight and we don't know it!



OH YOU WANT TO HEAR MORE?!?!
First you just sit by him and look at your sticker book,


then you make sure he gets lots of stickers on his bib,
then you sit on him so you can help him play with his toy,



then you gotta make the momma happy and pose for that camera,



And in the end this is how happy you make baby brother!



Oh and my baby brother is so big he rolled over this week and decided to grow into his 9 month clothes, mom keeps whining that her baby is getting too big but he is just trying to keep up with me! I love having a baby brudder (that is what daddy calls him, I guess he can't say his th's- don't worry when I decide to show everyone that I really can talk I will teach him)!!!

SOOO TOO BIG!

My kids are like unstoppable weeds- they will not stop growing! This last month has been so busy and I have not updated on some BIG milestones!
SIENNA
My baby girl has suddenly become a BIG girl, at least she thinks so! In the last fews weeks she finally got the courage to let go and walk on her own. She is figuring out the climbing thing and loves to sit on chairs! She picks something everyday to be obsessed with from her coat to spatulas or the laundry basket! Our house is a disaster thanks to our little whirlwind!

walking around in her coat- all dressed up with no where to go!

she suddenly LOVES cartoons in the morning- who doesn't watch cartoons on their bike in the morning?

this is one of her many faces--- she was a little confused at why the basket fell over


I cannot believe how much these 2 love each other and already interact

MALACHI

Our little muchkin has become a big baby too soon! At his 4 months appointment Mac weighs 15lbs 5oz (70th percentile) and is 26 inches long (90th percentile). He is a giggly little spitter who thinks everyone is talking to him! He moved into his own room this month and loves his big crib!

being entertained by his best buddy while waiting for mommy to get everything packed to go



Malachi LOVES his pink bumbo! He has such good head control and loves looking around at all the chaos in this house!
