Happy Easter

We hope that everyone had a very happy Easter yesterday! Connor started out the day with a visit from the Easter Bunny and then we all (except for Gracie) went to the beach to enjoy a beautiful Easter afternoon. Connor enjoyed his visit to the beach and spent his time there eating the sand and trying to catch the birds...I think he has been hanging out with Gracie a little too much :)

Fun pics from the past few weeks

Everyday it seems like my little baby is transitioning more and more into a toddler. He has now started pulling up onto his knees and is trying to figure out how to get up to his feet. It will only be a matter of time now before he is standing on his own. He is interested in everything that is on the coffee table and in the drawer of the entertainment center. I even found him today trying to pull up in his crib. Basically he is interested in everything that he can pull up on. He is completely done with baby food and we are having fun trying out different things for him to eat. So far we haven't found a single thing that he won't eat, which makes life easy on me! We have even been able to order from the kids' menu a few times when we go out to eat. And finally, his 2nd bottom tooth has really started to come in. Hopefully he will start to get the top ones now! It is crazy to think that in a little over a month my baby boy will be 1 year old...he is growing up too fast! Enjoy the pics!

Baby on the move...

As promised, here are some videos of our little man on the go. The first one is of him playing with his toys. He loves to roll his ball and chase after it and the door stops are better than any toy we could possibly buy and not annoying at all :) The second video is of him chasing the birds on the beach yesterday. The kid loves animals and didn't seem bothered at all by the sand. Too cute!

Dolphins

Here is a cool video that I got of the dolphins that we saw while we were out on the boat! I have never seen dolphins that close up before. So cool!

Our weekend with the Youngs!

Last weekend we packed up and went to Niceville, FL to hang out with Cortney, Jason and Meatball. It had been way too long since the Wicks and the Youngs hung out and we had the best time! We can't wait to go back! On Saturday morning we went out on Jason and Cortney's boat and went wakeboarding and saw tons of dolphins and then that afternoon we hit the outlets and then went out for dinner at Baytowne Wharf. So fun! Here are a few pics from our weekend...
