Exploring Grandma and Grandpa's front yard

While staying with Grandma Brenda and Grandpa George in Oklahoma Jack had a great time running around outside in the yard. He did a good job of staying on the sidewalk and not playing in the street. We've been working hard on that one. At Grandma and Grandpa's the redbud trees were blooming and so pretty. I would love to plant one in our backyard in Pearland!

Sidewalk Chalk


We tried out some sidewalk chalk on the backyard patio. The chalk was on sale and we got a crayola 20 count box for $1.50 at Walmart. Creating chalk art went pretty well but mostly Jack just liked to hold a chalk stick in each hand and watch me draw shapes. He also enjoyed chalking up my pants!

Pearland Egg Hunt

The Pearland Parks and Rec hosted the annual egg hunt at Centennial Park. The egg hunts were separated by age so Jack only had to compete for eggs with other 1 and 2 year olds. Aside from being super afraid of the man dressed up as the Easter bunny, Jack seemed to have a pretty fun time.

Reading in bed




We left a few books on the side of Jack's crib last night and this morning we found him investigating. I'm not sure how long he was up before I went into his room because he was so quiet... except for his dinosaur sound "Grrrrrrr".

Fun at the Museum

We visited the newly remodeled Houston Children's Museum with the Harts today. Jack, Iris, Eloise, and Owen loved the new Tot Spot. There was a giant light bright, mini cars, and a playhouse with little chairs and dishes. Down stairs in the main part of the museum there were lots of new play areas. They added a kid sized diner, vet clinic, and grocery store. Also, they've added a Flow Works area outside with lots of neat water features. We were super impressed!
