Our Easter...

The kids had an absolute blast this year!! Here is our easter at home!

Bryanna begs for press on nails every time we go to the store...so the easter bunny granted that wish!
She's not at all excited over it!

And what easter is complete without some peeps and cadbury eggs??

Maddox loved his tansformers, candy and coloring book!


And the ultimate egg hunt on top of my parents' waterfall!




that peter rabbit is clever, clever, clever!!

my nephew Dallyn is giving a heroic effort in trying to get the most impossible egg ever!! Watch the video for some funny stuff!

easter break

Happy Easter!!

My little sister put together these beautiful floral arrangements with a friend for my mom's center pieces on Easter Sunday. Aren't they so pretty?

And here comes Peter Cottontail....

Hoppin' down the bunny trail!!


We had so much fun dying Easter eggs! My kids really got into it this year!

Bryanna has loved hanging out with her cousins. We went swimming EVERY day this week...spring break has been the best!!

Jamie and Alex...BFF's

Maddox loved dying easter eggs this time...he did it all by himself!!

We made a special treat for the first time!
This wreath will be one of the other center pieces for dinner, filled with some lovely flowers! :)

We put an easter egg in the center of some cookie dough, then baked it in the oven. Here's how they turned out:

Jamers & Alex

And Brooke!



My Nana holding Baby Cali...that's a four generation difference!! I feel so blessed to have my mom's parents alive and well, enjoying life still!


We had parents day for Bryanna's dance class. She's such a sweet, beautiful little dancer!


Its been a fun and eventful week!!

Happy Easter!

love at home

We have been having a wonderful time with baby Cali at home. Our home is filled with so much love, hugs and kisses!! Maddox has been occupied with his recent birthday presents...especially his "big guns"! I have been cleaning up the nerf bullets all over my house, they are in every nook and cranny! I can thank his Mimi for that! :)
Bryanna has loved having a "real baby" in the house. She is such a fantastic older sister, she loves to hold her, give her the pacifier, even burp her, and she likes to "just watch" us change diapers, but usually ends up helping handing us a few wipes or taking the diaper to the garbage!


Bryanna and Maddox are such good little pals, it melts my heart to see them play with each other constantly. And it made it worth it to have them 23 months apart.

All is going well on the home front...I wouldn't mind a little more sleep, but I feel so blessed to have sweet baby Cali in our family, I would lose sleep for her anyday!

Cali Kaye Perry is HERE!

This was taken just before we left for the hospital!

Getting Ready

She was a small thing compared to the other 2!

All Clean!

Maddox was putting on a show the whole night. I wonder if he is excited to be dethroned as the youngest?

Bryanna is playing with the toys that Cali brought for the kids. Cali knew exactly what Bryanna liked! An Ariel Polly Pocket!

Maddox got a movie, Orange Tic Tacs (his favorite), and Cars sippy cups.

Daddy and his kids.


In case you are wondering why this post isn't as beautiful as others, It is MARK. I'm sure Stacy will post a better one once we get home. We should be coming home sometime today. Mommy and Baby a doing great!
