A week of firsts

We had a very adventurous week filled with lots of firsts for Haley. It started with her first bath with toys! She had a blast playing with her rubby duckies and splashing the water everywhere. She was trying to catch all her duckies at once and couldn't figure out why they would float away. She managed to "throw" them overboard some too.
This is fun!!!

I caught the princess ducky:)

I caught the pirate but...wait..what is that blue one? How can I get all three?


For Easter we went to Lake Conroe to relax and took Haley on her first boat ride. She wasn't too into the life jacket to say the least. But once the boat was moving at a reasonable speed she was out. On Saturday Matt, Haley and I went out on the boat without extra help and had some lunch. Haley did great and we were really proud of her being such a big girl at lunch. Getting her back into the life jacket wasn't as much fun but she eventually went back to sleep.

Here she is on her first boat ride with Grandma holding her. She is under that life jacket somewhere. It was also my first time on the boat to not be pregnant - it's much more fun.


Once we got back on land Haley was hanging out on the swing. She loves being outside.


She enjoyed fishing with Daddy too but was asleep when he caught his fish. Her first Easter was great. Grandma and Grandpa Vara and Uncle Michael sent her lots of Easter goodies from El Paso and Great Aunt Gloria sent a basket too. Uncle Mark made her a special gift for her room as well. She didn't have any Easter eggs yet - maybe next year. The best Easter gift of all is our beautiful daughter who fills our hearts with joy everyday!
