Easter weekend

We did lots of fun things over the Easter weekend. We went to the zoo forgetting that it was good Friday and that there would be a million people there. It was the most crowded I've ever seen the zoo by far.

We ran into cousin Bailey and Angie
Feeding the birds
Madelyn got to feed the giraffes and the birds. Madelyn and Bailey argued about who was the line leader and who was going to be first- they are just a little competitive. We had a great time until it was time to leave and Madelyn pitched a fit so Spencer put her on his shoulders and she flipped out and hammer slammed him in the sides of his head repeatedly.  Good times.
Saturday we went to the country club with Mymy and Pop for lunch and an egg hunt. Madelyn and Greyson got their picture taken with the Easter bunny, Madelyn did the Easter egg hunt, made a craft and decorated cookies.

 Easter Sunday we all got up to see what the Easter bunny left. Then to got ready and went to church and then headed to Mymy and Pop's house for lunch with all the family and another egg hunt.

We got an Easter Sunday concert from the big sister

2 months old

 Time is flying by and this sweet boy is already 2 months old. He is so so sweet and growing way too fast. Greyson is a GREAT sleeper at night. He's been going to bed between 10-10:30 and sleeps until 6 or 7. His naps during the day are all over the place and he doesnt like to nap unless he's being held. I've spent a lot of time sitting on the couch with him sleeping on my chest so not a lot has gotten done around the house but I've gotten to cuddle with my sweet boy a ton! Greyson has started smiling and laughing this month and it's just too cute. He has the most adorable smile! He's gowing so fast. He's in size 1 diaper and 3 month clothes already. At his 8 week checkup he weighed 11 pounds 1 ounce and was 22 1/2 inches long which is 50% in both height and weight. He's just perfect!

Dinos

The zoo has a new dinosaur exhibit and since Madelyn is obsessed with dinosaurs right now we took her for the members vip day before it opened to the public. The girl who loves dinosaurs ended up being scared of most the huge moving dinosaurs at the zoo.


 Madelyn was terrified of this dinosaur with the fish in his mouth and she flipped out when we tried to get a picture in front of him.

T-rex was huge
not so scared of this little guy

baby brother was not impressed with the dinosaurs
Madelyn loved these little baby 3-horns. She would have stayed and watched them all day.




Baby brother doesn't get bottles very often so Madelyn was so excited when I let her give him a bottle. She's such a good big sister!

1 month old



 I can't believe this sweet boy is already a month old. He is getting so big and has grown so much already. At his two week check up he was 8 pounds 2 ounces, he likes to eat a lot! He's already moved out of newborn diapers and up to size 1 and he's almost too big for all of his newborn clothes. Greyson has been sleeping good at night so far, sleeping 4-6 hours at night and takes good naps in his swing during the day. He is such a sweet baby and loves to be held. He is such a little mama's boy and I'm loving it!
Madelyn has been such a great big sister. She loves to sing to him when he's crying and wants to hold him often. Whenever we go somewhere and it's time to get out of the car she always asks me if we are going to leave him in the car and a few times she has asked if we can leave him in the car. Ha! No Madelyn we can not leave baby brother in the car!

Newborn pictures

One of our sweet friends gave us the best gift by doing newborn and family pictures for us. I just love all of them so much!
