Mother's Day 2011

I spent most of my Mother's Day trying to keep a fussy, gassy baby pacified. I really wanted to take him to church for the first time but he had other plans. He was awake most of the night and morning so we stayed at home while Seth and AC went to church. When they got home, we all rested for a while then went on our first family outing: dinner and a little shopping. Before loading the car we snapped a few pictures. Here are my favorites:
That same sweet, fussy baby is screaming now so thats all you get!

Easter 2011

Our Easter got started pretty early because Seth and Audrey Claire went to the sunrise service at church. Our drive to church is a good 30 minutes so they left a little after 6 that morning! That's why these pictures look like they are in the dark!
What a cutie!
When they got home from church, we headed to Tim and Darla's house for lunch. While there, we finally got everyone together for our first family photo!
After eating, Seth took Audrey Claire swimming for a little while. She had a blast playing in the water!
After a good nap, it was time to find the eggs Daddy hid in the backyard.
"Another one!"
Showing Daddy all the eggs she found in her basket (which was mine when I was a little girl).
We had such an amazing weekend spending time as a family of four!

Christmas 2010

So I'm a little late with this post but I've been sick with a terrible cold lately and haven't felt like doing much of anything. I am finally feeling better (perfect timing since school starts tomorrow!) and ready to catch you up on our Christmas.
We are very blessed with lots of family which always makes holidays CRAZY! We started our "Christmas rounds" on Christmas Eve with Seth's mom's family. While there, we enjoyed lunch and spending time with some of his family who we don't get to see often. Since Audrey Claire had already opened a few presents earlier in the week, she knew exactly what was going on when we got to Gigi's house and she saw presents. It didn't take her long before she took a present to Mawmaw as if she were saying "Come on, let's get this started".

Somebody had fun opening her presents, my presents, and anyone else's who would let her.
Here she is with Daddy playing with her new monster feet!
Next we were on to Mawmaw June's house in Jackson. We enjoyed more food and visiting with more of Seth's family!
She loved the miniature ornaments on the tree!
She really enjoyed showing Cameron that she knew how to color.
After spending the night at Mawmaw June's house and sleeping late the next morning (Hallelujah!), we were off to Crystal Springs. We went straight to Madison's house which is where my family was gathering. Madison immediately started showing AC her new toys. One of which was this new remote control puppy. Audrey Claire decided to take a turn "walking" it.
And when the puppy didn't move quick enough for her, she started pulling him!
After a wonderful lunch, we opened more presents. Have I mentioned that our child is a little spoiled? April will be an interesting month for us when we add another child to the mix.
Madison also got a trampoline which was a big hit among all the kids!
I mean kids and adults:)
After lunch and spending time with my family, we were headed to Wesson for more of Seth's family. Told you we had lots of family! Here, there was even more food, family and presents.
Somebody was worn out by this time!
I love this picture!
Audrey Claire really loves her Uncle Hunter. She followed him everywhere.
After picking out pictures for this post, I realized I didn't take that many pictures of family members. We really did enjoy spending lots of time with not only family but friends too. Usually when we visit for holidays, we don't get to stay long but this time we stayed several days. I guess we were just too busy enjoying ourselves to stop and take pictures!

Christmas Morning

Since we knew we wouldn't be at our house Christmas morning, we celebrated earlier this week. Here are some pictures from "Christmas morning" with Audrey Claire.
Opening her ornament for the year. We didn't even get a picture of the ornament itself. It is a little pink purse that says "Let's go shopping". That's all she's wanted to do lately!
Putting it on the tree.
Stocking stuffers!
Opening presents. She's pretty good at it now and can't wait for more at grandparent's houses!
Modeling Mommy's scarf. This is her "serious" face!
Now that the stockings are empty, let's put them on!
Or maybe it wasn't such a good idea...
Hope everyone's having a very Merry Christmas!

Lewis Lights

Earlier this week Seth, Lindsey and I took Audrey Claire to see Christmas lights in Purvis. Seth took lots of pictures for us so this is where I bore you with tons of pictures of lights :)
There were lights everywhere!
The Lewis Family Tree. It was a huge tree with an ornament for everyone on the family! Very cute.
Cute little church
For Memaw and Graypop- Santa on a John Deere!

Christmas Party at School

Last week Audrey Claire enjoyed her first Christmas party at school. It was a pajama party and they had a book swap. Here she is enjoying the party food~
Her teacher, "She-ya" (Sheila) brought her baby to the party. Needless to say, Baby Hope was a big hit at the party!
Opening her book~ "There's a Wocket in My Pocket"
"Cheese"
All the partying wore her out. She came home, had to eat her candy cane and here's how I found her~
