Easter Blessings!

I think Easter has definitely become my favorite holiday and Titus sure enjoyed the time as well. Such a time of renewal and hope in Christ.

Getting ready to dye some eggs.

He really enjoyed this and even had the chance to stick some stickers on the eggs.
The Easter bunny came!
Forget the chocolate, all Titus cared about was his mini tractor.
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful boy.
"Mom, are we done yet?"
Back from church! Yes, we have a Texas flag!
He loved finding those eggs.
Spending some time with his friend, Sam.
Mr. Ben blowing bubbles for Frankie Lu and Titus.
Titus scrambling to pick up the jelly beans to shove in his mouth.

Some Spring Fun!

The sunshine has really allowed us to get outside and have some fun these last couple of weeks, thank goodness! Here are some fun shots!

Hannah and Titus. She was so sweet to hold his hand and of course, Titus had no problem with that.
Checking out the giraffes at the Philadelphia Zoo, the nation's oldest zoo.
Hannah and Titus checking out the otters.
One of our friends from Connecticut moved here and we had the chance to attend her daughter and son's joint Birthday bowling party.

Someone enjoyed the mini chocolate cupcakes.
The future farmer on a little tractor at Johnson's Farm.
He enjoyed the big one even more!

April Showers!

I love Spring! Really, I love both of those "in-between" seasons of Fall and Spring! It has been absolutely wonderful to feel some warm sun, smell flowers and fresh-cut grass, and play outside just a little longer in the evening. One of the best purchases I have ever made for Titus has turned out to be his rain boots! Being all boy, he has no problem jumping into any kind of puddle and with the rain that we have had, he has had many opportunities!

Swing, swing, swing, swing.....
SPLASH!
Just wading around.
A stick to probe the water creatures.
Always helpful when walking the dogs.
And, he is off!
Our sweet, wonderful boy!

Just Horsing Around!

We have been eagerly anticipating those first few warm days of Spring! Hopefully, they are finally upon us, even though we had snow last week! No matter what the weather, though, we try to do some fun activities with Titus. He, like most toddlers, has a lot of energy! We are thankful that he is a healthy little boy who has legs that run fast and a good countenance so that when he falls, he can get right back on up!

This is one of his favorite activities...playing horsey on Joel!
On one of the park bridges. He has figured out that bouncing and making the bridge sway is so much fun!
Headed down the slide at a friend's birthday party.
Trucks!
Mowing...the flower bed.
A friend of mine snagged this little trike at the thrift store and this was the first chance that we have had to use it. Titus loved, loved, loved it. I can see many cycling adventures in our future.
The next Lance Armstrong?
Grandpa Ferguson got Titus this bike for his Birthday. He cannot quite touch the ground on it yet, but Joel was there to help out!
