Easter

We had a wonderful Easter! We spent Sunday at Robs parents house. We had some eggs hidden and she LOVED hunting for them. Here is a picture right after she found one; love that face!
Here is Ashley smiling at NaiNai; she had a great first Easter!

Madison with her ponytail! She is getting way too big!

One of the best sights: coming outside and seeing daddy holding Madison up so she could "dunk" the basketball! Madison LOVED doing this!

We ventured out and let her dye some Easter eggs! Here are the few that made it!

Here is her excitement when she saw the baskets that the Easter bunny left for them, thanks NaiNai for the baskets!

All in all, we had a great weekend!

Ashley's newborn pictures!

We had a wonderful person take Ashley's newborn pictures and my maternity pictures! Here are some of my favorite pictures; hope you enjoy them as much as I do! We love you Zandra Horkan Photography, can't wait to get more pictures done of the girls!

This is one of Rob's absolute favorite pictures! I have to admit is it awesome!

Since I have so many favorites, it is hard to choose my absolute favorite. But this one in the net comes very close; such a neat idea!

I have to say that this is my absolute favorite one! I love the color contrasting that Zandra did with this. The tutu is adorable!

Beach trip so far...

On Friday, we headed down to St. Simons for a week. I was so excited to get out of Atlanta and get a break from everything with Rob and my mom. Unfortunately Rob could not stay the whole with us, he left this morning, which is Monday. We will miss him! Before he left, I wanted to get some family pictures taken.

Here is one from the pier. Before dinner, we headed to the pier to take a walk and let Madison have some fun! She and daddy had fun looking at the birds and all the people on the beach.

Here is a family picture! This is one of our first ones, as I havent felt great about being in front of camera. But, I wanted to get some pictures of the girls, I just love saying that, with their "Big Sister/Little Sister" shirts before Ashley outgrows hers. It is not the best picture, but hey, I have an almost 2 year old who likes to throw tantrums...we did the best we could!

Here is a picture of just Rob, me, and Ashley. Madison had enough of trying to be still for pictures, so she left!

NaiNai, me, and Ashley; I love this one. We tried to get both kids, but Madison wanted nothing to do with it!

And then here is one with my sweet baby girl...

Since it is only Monday, we are hoping to get more pictures. I will update then!

Ashley's first bath...

Here are some pictures from Ashley's first bath! I forgot how difficult it can be to bathe a newborn; but, on the other hand, it was so much fun! She did great! Unlike Madison, she did to scream the entire time. It is so fun to wash a newborn, I could do it everyday! She would not unclench her hands, so that was a bit more difficult to wash. But she did great when I made her unclench them! Here is my little lamb! Like Madison, Ashley has a little towel from Pottery Barn Kids. Madison had a bunny, as that was her theme. However, they did not make a newborn owl towel, so I got Ashley the lamb! I just love a newborn after a bath, they smell so good and are so very soft. As we call them in our family, she got a "NaiNai" lotion bath afterwards. We call it that because my mom, NaiNai, absolutely loves to put lotion all over the girls when they get out of the bath.

Ashley looks absolutely terrified in this picture. I promise she was ok, she was just scared!

Ashley's first bath was a success! She has had a few more since then, and still does not cry during them. We try to give her a couple a week, since her skin is so sensitive! I am hoping to get some pictures of her nursery up soon. I just have to move some pictures off the wall that are of Madison, since she is in her old room. I will also try to get some up of Madisons new room!

Enjoy!!
