Easter

Bridgette had a great first Easter. The Easter bunny brought her a basket full of goodies! We went to church with Jeff, Tiffany, Caitlyn, and Grant. We got some cute pictures of the kids and had a great dinner at their house along with Keith and Ryann. We also had lunch with Lea, Erick, Kathryn, Caleb, Ethan, Andrew, Cyndi and Don. I had so much fun dressing B up in her Easter dress. I had been eye balling it at Old Navy for weeks and the week before Easter is was on sale. I was so excited and she looked adorable in it!

3 months old

I can't believe my baby is 3 months old. Time flies fast when you are having fun! Bridgette has changed and grown so much that it is almost hard to remember how small she was. Every day she looks more and more like her mommy except you can't miss her huge dimples that she got from her daddy.

This month Bridgette has gotten a lot stronger. She holds her head up well, sits propped, likes to push on her legs to stand, scratches mommy with her finger nails, grabs toys and clothing. She still loves her swing, bouncy seat, and play mat but still hates tummy time. She smiles, coos, and giggles all the time.

My maternity leave unfortunately came to an end this month. I enjoyed my 13 weeks at home with her and it was hard to leave her. The hardest part was not seeing Stephanie and Kai on an almost daily basis. We really loved the time we got to spend with them!

This month we took a trip to east Texas to see Bridgette's great grandparents and also spent the night at the farm my Auntie Amy, Uncle Mike, Jillian, Jake and Jensen. It was a long weekend but it was fun. Jensen is in love with Bridgette and it is so fun to watch him talk to her and give her kisses. He has finally learned our names all due to baby B.

Arboretum

Stephanie and I took our babies to the Arboretum to get some pictures in the pretty flowers. We almost blew away from the wind and we had fun but we both learned a lot about parenting that day. First off nothing goes as planned or scheduled. I think we knew this but we were secretly hoping that they would cooperate. Bridgette started the morning off not cooperating so we were flexible. In the end both babies were awake and happy at the same time so we did end up getting some cute pictures. Lesson learned, take pictures in your flower bed at home when your baby is only 2 months old =)
