Tahoe...

We spent the past week in Tahoe with the entire Drake family. It was a great trip as always. Easton got to meet the rest of the clan and don't worry I am going to quiz him on the names of all his 20 cousins. :)

The trip was different then the past years, only because when you have a 9 week old you can not just go out on the lake for the whole day and then play volleyball on the beach. Instead you still have to feed your child every 3 hours, Easton apparently did not get the memo that we were taking a "Vacation" and I was off duty! However, I will have to say he was a good boy, and it was nice to relax and play with the family.

Here are some pictures for you...


Easton Chilled in is Swing for a lot of the trip!


Easton's cousin Riley is super cute and is crawing everywhere!! We loved getting to play with her!


Easton needed a bath really bad!! So who needs a bathtub, when you have a sink!


Can you tell who dressed him?? Why does Drake think socks go to your knees?


Stella, Easton and Riley!!


Sofia and Grace loved playing with the babies!


Katie and Shea went with us on the boat.. however as you can see Easton did not get much of a view out on the boat!!


They all played together.. well kinda!:)


No worries yall, Drake still got to play! :)

2 months old..

The little man turned 2 months old today!! We are enjoying Easton more and more everyday, he is starting to smile and kinda laugh at us all the time. He is awake more, which I love, it means more time to play. Currently his favorite things are his activity mat and his baby Estein movie. He loves his swing but is kinda out on his bouncer. He moved to his big boy crib a few weeks ago, and is no longer in his bassinet. The baby Bjoin is a lifesaver for us come dinner time. So we are growing up so fast over here.

We officially feel like parents because you will now find us singing along to "Twinkle Twinkle little star" in the car. We play his little CD, which thankful makes him be quiet, however in return we don't get the newest hits, and Drake has had to trade in his Howard Stern, which I am thankful for. :)

Easton is making progress with lifting up his head and is just loving life. He had his first airplane ride, first pool time, first time to Texas and can't wait to meet all his cousins and aunts and uncles in Tahoe this week.

Here are some pictures..Enjoy!!

Happy 4th of July!!



Oh how I love the 4th of July. Fireworks are one of my favorite things, and this year was extra fun because I got to see Easton enjoy them. I know you might think I am crazy, but Easton really did like them. He watched the show and his eyes got really big when the big ones that feel like they are falling on you were shot! It was fun to see him enjoy them, and hopefully it will be one of his favorite holidays.

We went Saturday with some friends to see fireworks after we cooked some beer can chicken ( which was my first time and I loved it). Then today we went with some friends to a chili cook off and it was a lot of fun. Easton of course loved the chili! :) Kidding..








                                        Hope everyone had a great 4th with friends and family!!

Where did June go???

Well I have been a bad blogger lately, but time is flying by and little Easton is keeping me busy! We have done a lot lately as well.. so here is what we have been up to.

FATHERS DAY

Drake had his first fathers day and it was a great day. Easton made him a gift too, well with a little help from mommy we were able to get mold of his hand print and his footprint for daddy. It turned out pretty cute. Drakes brother Donald and his family came down to our house for the day and we had a great picnic in the park together. We played baseball and ping pong at the house and just had a great day!

TRIP TO TEXAS

We just arrived home from our big tour of Texas last night. We had a great trip, but we are wiped out. Easton was able to meet pretty much everyone from Round Rock Friends, Grandparents and Aunts, Dallas Friends, College Friends, Teacher Friends and even some of Daddy's friends. We were super busy meeting everyone, but it was fun. Chloe even came too! :)

My mom's friends hosted a sip and see for Easton so everyone in Round Rock could come meet him at one time. It was great seeing long time friends and their parents. Then my Mama Bear and My Aunt Karol came to the house to meet Easton, so that was fun. Then my sister and I made a quick trip to Dallas to see everyone. Here are our pictures!!


This picture makes my heart melt!! I love my little boy!!
