Just like Daddy

We love that beautiful Spring weather is here and we've been taking advantage of the warmer days by going to the lake when we get the chance.

Easter Cookout with Dennis

Sunday evening, Dennis came over for dinner. It was so nice seeing him and Dutch really enjoyed being outside and cruising around the yard while dinner was cooking. I got some really great shots of Dutch and Dennis!



















Happy Easter!

Our Easter was filled with a day full of activities! We woke up to what the Easter Bunny had left for Dutch, played for a bit and then quickly hurried to get to church on time. After church, we went with my parents, sisters, Kirk & nephews to brunch and then to the Easter egg hunt at my parents house. It was a fun-filled day and needless to say, Dutch was so drained after our busy day!

Spring Has Sprung!

This past weekend, we spent most of our Sunday outside doing yardwork/playing before heading over to my parents for my birthday dinner.

Dutch spent most of the day playing on the steps of our front porch while DJ aerated the yard. Once we got to my parents, he spent the evening outside with his cousins playing on the see saw.

We are looking forward to warmer weather so we can have more days like this one. Today we are going to brunch with some of my high school girlfriends that are in town for Easter and hopefully we will go to the park for a few hours afterward. Tonight, DJ and I are hosting a shower for some friends of ours that are getting married at the end of the month, but tomorrow we will be celebrating Easter with my family. The Easter Bunny is on its way...












And a Day at the Lake!

When the days get longer and the temperature starts climbing, DJ is ready to get to the lake any chance he gets, so Dutch and I joined him one weekend in March and had a great time. Dutch enjoyed the sand, although most of it ended up in his mouth!












A day at the Zoo!

On one of the warmest days in March, we decided to head to the zoo as a family. Of course, Dutch wasn't exactly interested in all of the animals, but it was just nice being out in the sunshine and enjoying the day together. Dutch had the most fun playing on the playground. Time to make more trips to the park!


















March Madness

I am very behind on posting on the blog, so I will be catching up today by posting EVERYTHING that went in on the Doherty household for the month of March!

We have been pretty busy with birthdays and showers this past month so I suppose the month got ahead of me. A quick Happy Belated Birthday on the blog to Meghan, Jacob, Kristy, Katy, Lauren, Stephen, myself (HA!) and Holly. Also, we have had a couple of baby showers (Macy, Catherine and Kim) - so needless to say, we have had one busy month!!!

Dutch took his first steps (on his own) yesterday and clapped for the first time on Thursday!! We are so proud of him and cannot believe how big he is now!

Here are some recent pics of the little man!


First warm day, so we spent it outside - with no pants on!


Getting ready to enjoy his pancake breakfast...
