Visitors

Last weekend our friends Mel, Sean, and Sanders came down from Tulsa for a visit.  Drake and Sanders haven't been together since they were this big   Sanders is just adorable and he and Drake had a great time.

Mom and Larry got Drake a  Sand and Water table for an early birthday  present

 












The boys obviously loved it (especially the water side)

We went to the Dallas World Aquarium on Saturday:

It's pretty much impossible to get a good picture of everyone with toddlers in it

Seems as if I was more excited about the fish than Drake was

Cracking up at the flamingos

It was great to see you Gaithers!  :)

Catching up...

I really feel like that's all I'm able to do on here!  Is it just me or has April flown by? 

A few weeks ago David went to Tulsa for his brother JT's bachelor party so Drake and I went over for a play date at Betsy and Jared's with William and Henry.  Drake and William are 6 months apart and are BFF so we thought it would be cute to dress them alike (which was even cuter than I ever imagined it could be). 

I LOVE this one...

After loading the pictures, I realized that I am a horrible friend and didn't take 1 picture of little brother Henry.  He's just precious and I can't believe that I didn't get any pictures of him!

Thanks Betsy, Jared, William, and Henry for letting Drake and I hang out. We miss you guys!

The Drakester...

Here are a few pictures of the little mister.


Drake made this safari "hat" in daycare and for weeks he insisted on wearing it while he ate dinner.

Pictures like these just completely melt my heart.  Drake sure loves his daddy! 

Happy (late) Easter

I hope that everyone had a wonderful Easter! Drake had a lot of practice with egg hunting this year, we had a practice run the week before Easter, a neighborhood hunt the day before, and then the Easter Bunny came to visit on Easter morning while we were at church.

The last few weeks...

The last few weeks have flown by and I've been really bad about posting, so before I update with Easter pictures, here is what we were up to in March:

Maranie's bachelorette party was on March 13th and was so much fun! Here are a few pics (from the beginning of the night :))

And on March 20th we drove to Groesbeck, TX to go to Maranie and Scott's wedding (due to unforseen circumstances, Drake attended the wedding/reception with us-but he was a good boy as usual and there were plenty of friends to help us keep an eye on him).

Drake with his BFF William-they look like they're up to something!

Unfortunately we didn't get any pictures of Maranie and Scott!  It was a beautiful wedding and we had a wonderful time!

Drake's First 19 months

I decided for the 100th post on the blog that I would do a little something different. Here is a little slide show that I created about Drake's first 19 months. Enjoy!
