Outside Fun

Ramsey has been enjoying the sunshine and nice weather. I took him outside to play in his water table that he got for Christmas from his Grandma and Grandpa Washington. He loves the water. This is sure to be a big hit with him this summer!



Ram's 1st Egg Hunt






















































Our neighborhood had an Easter Egg Hunt in the park area and Ram got to enjoy his first hunt. He LOVED it! I think he liked pulling the eggs OUT of his bucket rather than putting them in, but nonetheless, the weather was gorgeous and as you will see in the pictures, he made a new neighborhood friend (Logan). He and Logan ran around the lawn together and Ram did his normal "preaching" to him about the do's and don't's of egg hunting. LOL. "Rambling Ram". Ramsey and Logan gave each other high fives....soooo cute! Raiden was my little brown bunny and slept quietly in his stroller while Ram hunted eggs. After the egg hunt we went for a drive in the warm sunshine and ended up at Aunt Pearl and Uncle Larry's house in Carrollton. Thanks for a nice visit, Uncle Larry. We missed you, Aunt Pearl!

Spring Break 2010 with Mommy

Spring Break week was filled with fun for the Washington Family. Here are just a few of our captured moments together. Going back to work on Monday is going to be a challenge for me. I enjoyed my time with my kiddos so much....on countdown to summer break.






















Ramsey LOVES to steal the remote and change the TV channels. He's become a big fruit eater lately and really likes peaches and pears.











Raiden's hair...well, it's WILD. Mommy LOVES it when it's all spiked up and crazy.

























Tuesday: My girlfriend and POO sis Cadie came to visit. It's always nice to see old friends, especially when you can just "pick up where you left off". Cadie has 2 beautiful children of her own (they were visiting grandparents that day). She and I had some fun times in college together.....and our friendship continues to hold a special bond today. Love you, girl! Thanks for coming to see us! (Ramsey really liked Cadie's earrings.)















Wednesday: Kassie (30 weeks pregnant) and I went to Babies R US and Target for her to register for the arrival of Baby Jack. Kassie and Ram had fun drawing on her notepad. Kassie--you rock! Love you, toots!













Thursday: I went to see my girlfriend Khourie and shop for her wedding dress. Khourie is one of the boys' godmothers and obviously a dear friend of mine. When we get together, it's always hard to say goodbye because we have so much fun just hanging out. Khourie found her PERFECT dress! The 1st store we went into...and the 3rd dress she tried on...it was awesome! She looked soooo pretty! Fun day! Khourie, I treasure our friendship....



















Friday: The boys and I went to see Daddy at work so he could show them off. Then, we went out to lunch. Beautiful day. We love you, Daddy! Thank you for taking us out to eat...you are a GREAT dad!


























Saturday: We went to Derek's 3rd bday party in Granbury at Jumping Land. Ramsey had a BLAST! He LOVED the bounce houses and especially the toddler room and toys. He is now intrigued by other boys and girls and likes to play alongside them. I enjoyed seeing my POO sisters Jaime (Derek's mom) and Dawn. By the end of the party, Ram was pooped out (as you will see in the pic of him with Daddy and his bday hat--so cute!).

CheckUps at the Doctor-Monday 3/15/2010

We took the boys to the doctor on Monday. Ramsey had his 15 month well visit and Raiden had his 2 month well visit. Both boys had to have shots. Raiden took his like a champ but big brother Ram let the whole doctor's office know he was there and NOT happy about it. LOL.
Pictured holding Ram is Nurse Amanda. We really like her. Raiden smiled all day. The picture of him in his car seat was AFTER he got his shots. :)
