Bert?!?

While introducing numbers to Audrey using some cute little flashcards with Sesame Street charaters, I picked up a card that sported a particular number along with the picture of Bert. I was telling her what the number was on the card, then having her repeat the number. When I asked her what is this??? (while pointing to the card) she happily replied "Daddy!". Oh the laughter and tears I enjoyed at that moment. And of course, I had to immediately call Daddy (aka-Bert) at the fire station to share the funny! (by the way...he didn't think it was quite as funny as I did)

Easter Sunday

After church on Easter Sunday, we had a family picnic and egg hunt at Grammy and Grandaddy's house. The Dozier family, McGriff family and Thomas family joined Audrey and I for a great time. Poor Corey was quite sick and stayed back home in bed.

Audrey loved "hunting" the eggs. She liked finding the eggs that were shaped like animals first before picking up the "regular" eggs. Once she had her eye on eggs of a certain color, she would run past several eggs before picking up the desired colored egg. Eventually she would come back to retrieve the others.

When Audrey would find an egg she would run to Keeley or Aunt Carol to open it for her. Then she would run back to find another. This cycle continued over and over and over again. Picking up each egg, Audrey would shake it. If the egg didn't make a rattling sound she would think there was nothing in it and toss it back to the ground.

After finding all sixty-something eggs she wanted more.

This year, Easter was so much fun with her. She actually "got" the whole hunting the eggs and Easter basket thing. She was so cute and provided all of the adults with so much laughter.

Easter Photo Shoot

I took Audrey to Southern Homes and Gardens in an attempt to snap a few photos in her Easter attire. Well, Miss Grouchy Pants didn't want to cooperate, as you can tell by the frowns in the photos. However, I did get a few that I liked.

Easter Egg Hunt

My mom, Audrey and I attended an Easter egg hunt sponsored by Mom's church. After the shock of being stampeded by many larger kids, Audrey regained her composure to find a few eggs of her own. She was thrilled when she opened the egg to find goodies inside. She also got to visit with a few friends that are dear to me.

Oh Wow! There's candy in here!!

Caden, Audrey and my friend Sheila

Audrey and mommy's long-time friend Sheila.

Audrey with Uncle Charles and Aunt Mott. This couple has been dear to me since I was Audrey's age. It thrilled my hear to see Audrey take to them the way she did. She sat with them for the longest time. So sweet!

Happy Easter!!!

Because you asked...

A few people have asked about the colors in Audrey's room and what it looks like....well here are a few snapshots-

A Little Dirt Never Hurt...

And what do you do after several days of rain and being trapped inside the house?

Why play in the mud, of course!
