Members of the zoo

This year we decided to get a zoo membership and have already gone 3x and the membership is already paid off:) We look forward to many more trips and learning about the animals.
We have gone to the zoo with Aunt Nicole and Hudson 2x already and are enjoying exploring Africa, Australia, and soon to be the tropics!!!
So tired. We even packed a lunch and ate by the lions.

Such a cutie
This is why my hat is flipped up in every picture-daddy doesnt care for the hat, but mommy says it is good since it protects my perfect skin-plus it has a monkey on it!!!

I love my wagon.

Relaxing before our trip to the zoo.




JUST SOME RANDOM PICS
Don't mind the wet hair.

My handsome guys-I love those smiles.

New Mark Easter Egg Hunt

Harrison had a blast smiling and greeting all of the residents at my work.

This is what happens when the Easter bunny arrives.

1st sighting of the Easter bunny.

What you want me to get the eggs, not the candy

I want to try the candy, but mommy said NO.

1st Easter

Grandpa reading my easter book to me.
Making some sugar cookie bunny blobs:)

Hugs

Thanks Aunt Nicole, Uncle Jon, and Hudson for the awesome new balls.

Dumping out his easter basket and eggs from G and G Vaught-well this basket is from last year before he was born.

Dance Dance

I would have to say Harrison takes after his mommy with his moves:) We asked my dad to start up the victrola and played a little Bing Crosby, Frank Sinatra, and others. We had a lot of fun dancing and listening to the 78 records...we did decide that modern tech is so much better-it got old changing out the record after every song, however it is always fun to listen and pick out the records.

More!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I couldn't be more excited about Harrison finally doing another sign...after 6 months of demo he is finally signing "more." He already was signing "milk." We have been dealing with his frustration about being unable to communicate to us and this is so exciting...now if we could just get "drink, eat, please, and thank you," It will make things so much easier on all of us. Enjoy the video-he was signing more after every bite-so cute-Every new development is so exciting!!!

He is clapping at first and then he does it later...sorry so long-I can't edit my digital camera videos.

No more Pacifier

We are on Day 2 of no pacifier and I think we have had a breakthrough...Harrison was alseep in only 20 minutes for his morning nap and only heard a peep out of him twice!!!!!!!!!!! Monday night was awful-1 hour and 40 minutes later he was asleep and then naps on Tuesday it took at least an hour to fall asleep. Last night about 40 minutes to fall asleep!!! GOODBYE pacifier!!! Instead of getting more attached to a blanket or stuffed animal he is finding comfort in socks:) Every sock he finds goes straight to the mouth and he just chews on it.

And the celebration continues...

Indoor wagon rides are fun when there is snow outside.
Grandpa Dieker and Harrison enjoying their time together. The Dieker clan came up on Sunday because the weather was so bad coming from wichita. We had a great time catching up and just being goofy. Glad you all were able to make it through the storm.

Grandma and Grandpa Vaught helped us out so much with his party-thanks for everything:) Things get a little stressful when roughly 40 people were coming and the weather was requiring everyone to be inside-well except for Craig who was grilling us some food.
Harrison loves his grandpas-he is very blessed to have so many people who love him.
