Trisha's Baby Shower

Last Sunday, April 18th, Trisha's four nieces (me, Jess, Ashley, and Lisa) threw her a baby shower. This is the second party I've hosted at my house and the big open room worked out perfectly for the occasion. It was a great day and everything went very smoothly!
We just had to get a picture of the preggo bellies before all the babes start arriving. Trisha is due on June 1st, followed by Jess on June 8th (c-section scheduled for June 3rd), and me on July 23rd. Bring on the new babies for the Hegle Family!!!

Some of the decorations I made for the shower:

(I'm so happy to finally have this room painted...I was very tired of the white dirty walls! These walls were all painted Wednesday through Friday of last week. Yes, when my mom got wind that I had started doing some painting, she recruited the help of Kim and they got to work. I got home from work on Wednesday to a half-painted house. It looks so nice and much more like a home!)




Trisha with all of her wonderful gifts!

I absolutely LOVE this diaper bag she received from a family friend! I loved it so much that I'm in the process of hopefully getting one made for myself! It's so roomy and looks more like a purse...exactly what I've been looking for!



We are anxiously waiting for Baby Girl Larson to arrive! It's exciting to be welcoming a new first cousin to the family!

Our Easter Weekend

Last Saturday Darren and I took Landon to the Buffalo Easter Carnival. It was sponsored by Little Buffalo Preschool and held at the Civic Center. There was food, games, and the Easter Bunny. We didn't want to wait around for the Easter Egg Hunt since we figured Landon wouldn't really know what to do this year...maybe next year buddy!


The highlight of the Carnival for Landon was running around like a crazy man! He is sure enjoying being mobile now that he can walk. He doesn't want to stop...ever! It's been a lot of work for Mommy and Daddy to chase him around everywhere we go.


On Easter Sunday, Landon got to search for his Easter basket first thing in the morning. He found it hidden between the couch and the end table. The Easter Bunny was really good to him this year. Cars, bubbles, sidewalk chalk, Gerber treats, a pinwheel, a new ball, and movies. He must've been really good this year!



After church we went to Triple R in Kimball for the Easter Brunch Buffet. Landon loved the Easter Bunny! He couldn't get enough of him. In fact, he loved him so much that when he left Landon cried. He jumped right into his arms and wanted to be held by him. It was very cute to say the least!

Landon's First Haircut

It was beyond time for Landon to get his first haircut...don't you think?

So, we made an appointment with Tracy at Diva's in Annandale on Thursday Kid's Night. Jackson and Ashley came with. Jackson went first so that Landon could watch. Landon just ended up running all around the salon, rather than watching Jackson get his haircut!
Here we are all set for the haircut. Landon sat in my lap so we both needed to wear an apron. He didn't so much like having his hands and arms covered up.
Things started off well, but after a few minutes we needed some intervention. Auntie Ashley came to the rescue with a blue sucker!


Then the haircut resumed and he did just fine.

One blue mouth later, we were all done and ready to go! Landon looks like such a big boy with his new haircut! What happened to our little baby boy???

The boys showing off their new haircuts! So handsome!
