Finally... New Family Photo's

This past week was mothers day and we decided that for our mothers we were going to give them new family photos! I have been wanting to get them done for a long time! My wonderful and amazing sister-in-law Kylee took them for us and did a fantastic job. We are so grateful for her and the time that she took to take them.






Mahal was so tired and cranky(bad day to get pics for us)! Luke tried everything to get her to laugh/smile but nothing....

Easter Bunny and First's

Easter was so enjoyable! Mahal didn't really understand what was going on but she had a lot of fun with the things that she got from her Grandma's. This week has been full of first's for Mahal. On Monday April 25th, she stood all by herself!!!! She went right over to this little stool and stood right up. She has been trying for awhile. Then, yesterday Saturday April 30th, she took her first little crawl. The right way..... she has been scooting around really funny but finally she did it with both knees on the floor. We love her so much but she is really sassy sometimes!

She loved the candy inside the eggs!


Easter Sunday just hanging out with Dad!!!

Mahal's first time dying Easter eggs

My first stand all by myself!

It was sunny one day this week and so I decided to take her outside and get some good pictures of her. It is a challenge to take her pictures!!! She loves to be outside and when she is out there she has no attention span. I can't get her to smile for anything! And on top of all the the bird, grass, and bugs all over, the neighbor's horse got out and all she wanted to do was watch it run.



Oh and how can I forget the highlight of our day after our photo shoot... My little brother showed up at our house with his new pet.


Three weeks ago my mom and I took the kids to Baby Animal days and it was fun. Mahal loves animals!!! She was able to ride a pony and the boy that we helping us said that she was the youngest to ride that he had ever seen. It was raining/snowing but it didn't even phase the kids.

Overall the week has been great and we're looking forward to the next busy one we have ahead.
