First Easter!

Trace had an eventful first Easter! It all started Thursday afternoon with his Easter party at school:


Then on Friday morning, he had his first haircut:


Saturday was his first Easter Egg Hunt with the Ring! He “found” four eggs and had a good time soaking up the sun with Parker:



He played on the swing at the park:


We decorated eggs:


Sunday morning he woke up to see his Easter basket:


Sunday evening he got all dressed up for church:

We really enjoyed our first Easter with Trace and spending time with family and friends:

Happy Easter

Time for a haircut?

Ashley's been ready for Trace to get a haircut for a few weeks now, but I've been reluctant. After she found this cool place in town for kids (they have a baby's first haircut package where they take a picture and give you a card with a lock of hair in it), I've warmed up to the idea.

His hair isn't that long, but he could use a trim around his ears and in the front. So, look for new haircut pictures soon. In the meantime, here's the little man sporting a spiked up look:

What a Fun Day!

Trace and I spent a fun Sunday afternoon with two of our favorite friends, Megan & Leslie, at the Oak Alley Arts & Crafts Festival. It was a day of many firsts for him, so I thought I’d share a few pictures.

His first face painting (we opted for a bunny on his hand):

His first pony ride:

He visited his first petting zoo and had a taste of his first snowball (cherry with condensed milk), while he danced and listened to the band.

What a fun day!

8 Months Old

Trace turned 8 months old this past week. It's been a great 8 months too. The other day we laid out a blanket in the yard and let him enjoy the sunshine. Since he loves attention and to have his picture taken, we got some great pictures of him that day:
