I love this kid! He cracks me up with his personality. The boy is a happy one for sure.
This past month Anderson had his first Easter! We had the joy of going back home to Texas for a few days to visit family. Time always seems to fly by while we are there. Seems like it's never long enough. Anderson did wonderful on both flights. For the first time Presley didn't sit in her car seat, and loved being able to be like a big girl. Anderson continues to grow like a weed. As he grows we continue to learn what he does and doesn't like. For example, the kid will eat puffs all day long. In fact, he gets mad when puffs are not waiting in his high chair for lunch or dinner. He really enjoys being outside with his big sister. As she rides her bike, he plays in the ball pit, or sits just letting the wind blow on his face. We have discovered he doesn't like bluebonnets...
or dying Easter eggs...
I guess with time the love for these two yearly family events will get better. We hope!
While we were in Texas we stayed with my family for a few days then went on to the lake to see Adam's family. Presley has a blast swimming in Aunt Tricia's pool, and feeding Bun Bun. (RIP Bun Bun we will miss you always) Bun Bun was a stray bunny that decided to make my sisters back yard his home. Uncle David for months made sure Bun Bun had a warm home and food to eat. This became a highlight of the visit for Presley.
While we were there we also got to celebrate Auston's 7th bday! All my nieces and nephews are growing up way too fast. Just want to bottle them up and keep them young.

The kids woke up the next morning to a fun Easter egg hunt.
Then on to the lake we went for more Easter fun.
When we got back home we had the joy of going to Duke Gardens with some friends of ours. Even though they are UNC folks...they found it in their hears to step on Duke grounds. Thanks Burt and Cara for meeting us there. Anderson even gave a little smile!
Presley Prays for, "Avery Grace" everyday, and on her own calls her her best friend. I don't know what we are going to do when it's time to move. Watching this little relationship with these two girls gets me every time.
Anderson and his big sister in the bluebonnets, ball pit and on a walk together. :) The older he gets the more she warms up to him. I pray their relationship is genuine, and full of great times...

This past month we lost a very beloved Grandmother. Adam's Gran has gone on to be with the Lord. What a wonderful women she was. Although I never got to know her very well, she was very instrumental in Adam's life, even more so after his mother passed away when he was in high school. We are happy to know that she's in a better place with her husband, daughter and other family and friends. So so happy my kids got these precious moments with her.
