Houston Rodeo

Two weekends ago (yes I am horrible about getting posts up right away!) we took the boy to the Houston Rodeo to the Livestock Show. We had a wonderful afternoon looking at the animals and hanging out. Grant milking the "fake" cow in a cute exhibit called Home on the Farm.

Climbing tractors with Dad

Grant loved looking at all of the animals..Bryce slept in hihs Baby Bjourn on me most of the time. He is such a good baby.

Hanging out with his buddy Mason-I told them to smile for the camera and Mason put his arm around Grant-too cute!!

Grant didn't seem to mind-he decided to hold his hand.

Bryce awake with Dad-you can't see but he had his cowboy shirt on.

Feeding the chickens

Happy St. Patty's Day

Happy St. Patty's Day-yes belated but it has taken me a while with all the posts I needed to do! So Happy in my onsie from Grandma and Grandpa Muller

"Hey guys..just hanging out here...!" So funny..trying hard to build his neck and core strength.

Grant hanging out too in his green polo shirt from Grandma and Grandpa Muller and my socks from his Auntie Liz

The boys looking very perplexed....with their Shamrocks from Great Aunt Pamela

Bryce is his Sham Rockin shirt from Mama O and Papa. He was tired of pictures at this point.

Baptism-Part 1

Bryce was baptized at St. Puis X Church (same church that Grant and I were also baptized) in Rock Island, IL on March 13th. It was such a special day with most of family there to celebrate with us. Father Schaub does such a nice ceremony. I remembered getting choked up at Grant's baptism and had the same feelings this time. I just feel so blessed and grateful for 2 beautiful, happy and healthy boys. Andrew and I are so lucky to have such a wonderful family.
Lots of pictures below..so many I liked. More pictures of family pictures in next blog to come.. Bryce in same outfit that Grant was baptized in-Bryce was just 2 months though and Grant 3 months.

Love the smiles
