Who’s your daddy?

I don’t think anyone will ever question who this babies daddy is!!

I love that my rotten mess is the spitting image of his daddy!  Let’s just hope that his childhood rottenness turns it to sweetness as an adult…just like his daddy!

Strawberries 2012

To end our spring break, we went to Froberg Farms to do our annual strawberry picking!  It was a little muddy from all the recent rain, but we finally found some good ones and came home with quite a load!

Bayou Wildlife

Over spring break we invited Grandma over and headed to the Bayou Wildlife Park in Dickinson.  We took Brady once when he was younger and were excited to experience it again, this time with the twins!  The load you up in a “tram”, you get (buy) buckets of food and the animals come up and eat out of your buckets! We had a blast!

Brady ready to go!

see that look?  That “I know I’m not supposed to be touching this but I’m going to do it any way” look…

love this kid!

The princes not sure about all this

The princess pooped out!  And I don’t think daddy minded too much!

IMG_9592

I was kind of worried about how Kaden would react to all the animals coming up close….he was a pro!

IMG_9586

took handfuls of food and threw it without hesitation….whether there were animals around or not!

IMG_9598

didn’t bat an eyelash when the ostrich came up…in fact he pelted him with food…oops!

IMG_9600

bring it on zebra!

IMG_9604

wait did you say zebra?  It’s my favorite color!

IMG_9601

Brady was super pumped that the camel chose his bucket to eat out of !

After the tram ride we got to ride pony’s!

Brady – an old pro

Kemah

Our spring break started out pretty soggy!  Lot’s of rain and very little sun!  On Tuesday the weather cleared out and tball practice was cancelled so we took full advantage of our time and headed down to Kemah! 

We had dinner, Kaden played in the water, and Grandma joined us in time to ride some rides!

Dinner with my 4 favorite people!

You mean I can get my clothes wet and NOT get in trouble?

IMG_9520IMG_9522

And get my hair wet?  You’ve got to be kidding

IMG_9529

The airplanes!

IMG_9532IMG_9534

Kaden was  a HUGE fan of the airplanes

IMG_9531

and might have thrown a little fit when it was time to get off

monkey see, monkey do

Spring Break

 

I have several posts coming up on some of our outings during spring break!  We’ve had some much needed family time and have had a great time just relaxing!  Aside from our many “surprises” as Brady likes to call them we had plenty of time to do…..

a little back yard picnicking….
