Tummy Time and Easter Baskets

Yeah...

 this smile only lasts

the first minute or two

...

and I soak up EVERY SECOND!

Lookie what the Easter Bunnie left me!

Sure...

it was made to be a school tote.

But,

it will be my perfect 

diaper bag!

Happy Easters!

The weather was not on our side today 

so 

we took our easter photos inside...

Sam already know how to smile for the camera!

We squeezed in  picture with me when Sam got sick of smiling...

Sam loves standing up!

 Love,

 the 

Egberts

Nance Family Visit

This weekend my Memah, Mom, Aunt Pam, Cousin Rachel, and Niece Madison came all the way from California to meet sam and see our home!

Madison LOVED taking care of Sam.

She read him Dr. Seuss books and he couldn't get enough!

BIG R, little r,

what begins with R?

Rosy's red rhinoceros

R...r...R

I put Maddie's hair in a bun for church on Sunday.  

I teach the 12-13 year old girls at church, and Madison wanted to come with me! 

I could never get my hair in a cute messy bun like this...

I have curly hair envy.

Rachel loved holding Sam....

Memah was sick the entire time, 

but she was such a good sport for coming!

Our Neighbors have a trampoline, 

so Maddie and Rach loved to go over there and jump. 

Rocky would come along to play with her BFF, Aspen.

RIP 5,000th tennis ball, you will be missed.

<3

All the girls and the baby went to 

Cracker Barrel

 for dinner the night before they left.

Come back soon!

:)

Bumbo Time

It's a little early, 

but Sam is so good at holding his head up!

I only let him sit for a minute, 

and he loved every second of it.

Sam's First Sunday

Looking Sharp

(I picked up this onesie at Deseret Book) 

Sam was so happy and well behaved the whole 3 hours.

I was so scared that he would make a scene, but he did so good!

If he would make the slightest noise, 

I would jump up and take him out of the room. 

But he wouldn't even be fussy when I would leave.

Yes

I made more of a scene than my child did

Yes

I am new at this

Yes 

I will learn

Meet The Newest Addition

We inherited an amazing upright piano from Kevin's 

Great-Aunt Edyth Mackay.

I am in love...

I found some fabric laying around waiting to be used, 

so I threw it on the bench to help it fit the room better. 

Cute huh?!

    

We got some other knick-knacks and furniture from her as well.

Isn't this pot to DIE for?!

This buffet stole my heart

and..

I bought these curtains last weekend

(not from Aunt Edith, but still new to the house)

Our front room was so barren, 

and now it is so warm and inviting with these new additions.

We picked up a few more things, and I will post them as soon as I find a place for them!

What makes a house a home? 

A Piano

Kevin's Desert Race 4/9/11

Yesterday Kevin got the brilliant idea to race in the 

Desert Race...

Yes.

It has been snowing all weekend.

No.

Kevin did not back out.

Our TOTALLY AWESOME AND SUPPORTIVE NEIGHBORS ;)
Kelly and Jen

came out with him, along with our brother Trent.

Here I am. Clean, warm, and dry... for the next 10 min at least.

Notice all the snow on the ground and how this was a dirt bike race. 

Not a snowmobile race.

Mentally preparing before the Race...

After. 

(3 hours later)

Notice the missing front fender?!

Yeah, 
Kevin raced a grueling 50 miles 
and crashed a few times, 
and luckily got out of it with no major injuries.

With the mix of sand/snow/missing fenders Kevin's goggles rendered them useless the last half of the race.

So he rode without them on.

Thanks to photoshop you are unable to see the 

nasty/sandy snot 

that was pouring out of his nose.

I am such a proud wife!

I know all of you are rushing to judgement of Kevin and I as parents. 


Asking yourself questions like...

 "Did they really drag their 2 month old to a race in the freezing temperature all day?!"

and the answer is..

NO! 

Sam and I attended the Bridal Shower of my lovely friend/employee...
