Isabella's Dance Recital

Isabella took dance (ballet) lessons for the first time this year. She really picked up on the moves quickly and was one of the best dancers in her class. Her favorite thing she learned was how to skip. I have to say, she is the best skipper I've ever seen!:)

Some Pictures Of Our Sweet Little Lion.







Here is a video of her dance. This is for Grammy, Daddy Ron, and anyone else who didn't get to see it. Hope you enjoy! She is the fourth little lion to crawl out.

We have a climber, Easter, Peanut Butter Face, Running with Dad and Reading with Dad

With baby girl Carothers arriving in a few months, Brooks will be moving to a toddler bed. I didn't want to move him until he was ready and I think he is! Who would have thought that he could get that chunky thigh up that high!

EASTER! Our neighborhood puts on a really great Easter Egg Hunt. There are so many things to do and fun games to play. Isabella found one of four GOLDEN eggs and won a choc. bunny the size of Brooks. This Easter was extra special because Isabella is really beginning to understand the sacrifice God made for all of us. I think we went through the Resurrection Eggs with her about 10 times. She is such a special little girl and it is amazing to see her spiritual growth!

The kids found lots of eggs...and I got stuck holding the baskets!

Family pic. on Easter Sunday. You can see my baby bump!!!!

SO...Brooks feeds himself every meal. Usually he does a really good job and sometimes we have days like this.
Look mom...NO HANDS!
What? You said I have peanut butter on my face?
Oh yeah!! I'm saving it for later!!

Ben has been waiting for Bella to get big enough to fit in real running gear. She is still so petite, but we bought her a little outfit anyway. We just pulled the draw string really really tight!

We love this pic!
Like father like daughter
She felt so sassy in her running gear. She couldn't stop jumping around.

Nothing like a good read with dad!! Notice all three have a farmers tan :)
