Easter weekend

Easter weekend started off with an egg hunt on the base. Jackson and I practiced around the house with his little bucket (I stickered "Jackson" on it) and colored balls, just to get the concept of picking them up and putting them in his bucket. I had my doubts, but he got it just fine! I had to coach him a bit during the actual hunt, because all he wanted to do was pick up the eggs and look them over :)
A few of Jackson's buddies came out with us- here he is comparing loot with Gabriel and Gabriel's dad.

Jacque and me and our littlest men!

And last but not least, Miss Abby in her Easter finery!

Happy Easter!

Abby @ 3 months

Abby at 3 months:

At 3 months:

-she is filling out her 3-6 month sized clothes already, so I am going to have to cycle through them quickly to make sure she wears them all and I get pictures of her in them!

-she is a little over 12 pounds.. about 80%. I guess I don't have to worry about her getting enough to eat!

-she is still pretty happy during the day, and is getting better about taking naps

-she can still make impressive diapers and she ends up soiling at least one outfit per week :(

-she is still not a fan of the evening, although unlike a month ago, she does not require nursing to calm down.. usually just holding her will do the trick

-still same sleeping patterns as a month ago, and still likes the same position, but she has started to go down a little easier at night

-she is close to laughing, and kicks when she is excited

-she loves little colorful toys and if you set them in her lap or hold it in front of her, she will grab for it and hold on tight!

-she can support her body weight on her legs

-she has started to smile for other people than just her daddy and mommy!

St. Patrick's Day

Happy Saint Patrick's Day from the O'Rieber clan :)

Happy Birthday to Me!!

I made this cake!

Just kidding.

25 years old.. 2 years of marriage.. 2 great kiddos.. can't complain! :)

Truly a Happy Birthday for me!

Abby = Christy clone?

I keep saying Abby looks like Christy did when she was a baby, so now I am comparing pictures. What do you think?

Double Stroller

First walk in the double stroller!

Feeding the Ducks

This afternoon (3/11), we went to one of the lakes on base to feed the ducks. I'm not entirely sure Jackson got the point, since he just begged for pieces of bread the whole time, but I think you can tell from the pictures that he had fun anyway :) Enjoy my attempts at photo editing!
