New Haircut & New Haircut Experience

I finally decided to jump on the new hairstyle bandwagon for boys and took Preston to Knock Outs to get his hair cut with the hard part and super short sides. I have always taken him to the kids haircut place but I knew he needed to go to a regular hair salon for this type of hair cut. I took him to the girl where Jerod goes and it was such a fun experience for Preston and me. 

He instantly became a big boy making friends with the boys that were waiting to get their hair cut and calling them "his buddy". It was cute thou when all the TVs in the salon were playing sports but the girl asked Preston if he wanted cartoons and he said yes, so his TV was on cartoons while all the others were on sport channels. 

He sat so proudly getting his hair cut and then when she was done, she asked if I wanted her to wash his hair (it was included in the price). At that point, he had never had his hair washed while getting a hair cut and I thought, why not, lets give it a shot. 

Preston took his toy car and sat like a big boy getting his hair washed and didn't fuss at all. I think he actually liked it. 

His hair turned out soo cute and we are still loving it!

Egg Hunt, Egg Hunt, Egg Hunt!!

Rockwall Egg Hunt

This year for Easter egg hunts were in full force. I couldn't resist going to the first egg hunt of the season and that being the city of Rockwall one. The day ended up being a little chilly and very windy but Preston was a rock star and waited 30 minutes in the same spot for the egg hunt to begin. He refused to do the other fun activities because he didn't want to miss the egg hunt for anything. So in the meantime, Daddy got us cotton candy and that helped! 

But as soon as the announcer said "Go" he was off! There must have been thousands of eggs but those kiddos cleaned them all up within minutes. Preston had a full bucket and he was quite satisfied. He got to see the Easter Bunny to top it all off!

We stood here for 30 minutes waiting

See Mommy, I not crossing the line yet

 Ready, Set, GO

 Opening the eggs in the car, he couldn't wait till we got home

Church Egg Hunt

Palm Sunday gave Preston another reason for an egg hunt. This one was much smaller but nevertheless, he was beyond excited. He just loves collecting the eggs (eggs only, no loose candy or other type of packages will do) and then opening them up to see what the surprise is inside. He watches a lot of YouTube videos with kids opening eggs, so I think that is why is likes it so much. Mal and Paw Paw got to watch him egg hunt and that is always fun!

Primrose Egg Hunt

Preston's third round of egg hunting was at school the Friday before Easter. Mal and Paw Paw came which added to the excitement for Preston. Preston loved this hunt just as much as the others and came home with a lot of candy!

This Easter Bunny was a little scary looking to me :/

 The kids are ready to go

 Preston can hardly retain himself

 Asking Mal if this has peanuts...good boy

Happy Birthday To Me...Baby Ben is Here

On the morning of my actual birthday, we got the exciting call that Jessie was in labor! I had a meeting that morning and was afraid I wouldn't make it in time when the family got to see him for the  first time but just as I walked into the waiting room, Brad came in and said we could come back to see Ben. He was born the afternoon of March 17, 2016 at just 5lbs. Jessie did an all natural birth with no epidural and was a rock star during the entire birth. Ben is the cutest little thing and I am excited to watch Preston, Ben and Parker grow up together!!
