Oh My Goodness!!!

So much has happened- I don't know where to begin. I guess I'll start with Easter...


We took Taylor to an Easter egg hunt at the Latta Plantation. Latta an 1800 cotton plantation and living history farm that is surrounded by miles of nature preserve. It is literally down the street from our house so it is super convenient. We take Tay to their egg hunt every year and then we usually walk around to visit with the farm animals and walk through the old buildings. Unfortunately, it was pretty muddy because it rained a ton the day before so we didn't stay as long as usual.













Just down the street from Latta is this beautiful old stone built church with a large stone wall out front of it. Every time we drive past the church I mention to Jason how I would love to stop and take pictures by the stone wall- and we finally did it! I want to take the kids back to take some more pictures when it isn't so muddy out. There are these gorgeous stone steps out front of the church that would be so nice for taking pictures on.





Here are a couple photos from another egg hunt we took the kids to the week before Easter--





Owen's said his first word last Thursday. We were waiting in line at the grocery store and out of nowhere he started yelling "Dada, Dada, Dada!" Jason was thrilled, of course.

Owen is also pulling himself up all over the house now. Last Saturday Jason was sitting on the floor playing with him and he crawled over to Jason and pulled himself right up like he'd been doing it forever. Jason called for me and I got pictures!!!
His favorite spot to pull himself up is on the window seal in the living room. He loves to look outside and talk to the birds when we have the window open. It's too cute!




In doggy news, Sos is going to school! We enrolled him in training classes at PetsMart. His first class was last Sunday and he did excellent! There are only two other dogs in his class, which is great because that meens less distraction for Sos. Hopefully these classes will help teach us how to train Sos not to dig and chew on the deck! Cross your fingers!


Whew! That was a lot!
