We have been having so much fun with Bryce these last couple of months, especially now that the weather is starting to warm up and we can get outside and do fun new things!
Bryce went on his first zoo outing with his Mommy and Daddy and Grandma Fones. He loved being outside, but wasn't too interested in the animals yet.
Daddy pointing out the koi fish. Bryce was a little interested in them.
Yeah, he's not feeling our photo ops, but eh, we thought it was cute :)
Our little monkey :)
Mr. Goat was a hit. But I was a little leery when the goat jumped up and tried to eat him thinking he was goat food!
We love giraffe's, especially the babies!
We also took Bryce to see the flood in downtown Davenport. We walked over the skywalk towards the casino. Bryce did seem to enjoy checking out the water.

ALL HANDS ON DECK!! Flooding emergency!
We also just had the pleasure of spending our first Easter with our little man.
Babies First Easter :)
Crinkle paper was his favorite "toy" the bunny brought him :)
Happy Mother's Day! This is my first Mother's Day as a Mom, and it has been such a blessing to be a Mommy to our wonderful, sweet, happy, healthy baby boy. Being a Mom has been the biggest adventure of my life, and I wouldn't change it for the world. We spent Saturday night and Sunday morning with the Gillespie side of the family, and Bryce had a chance to spend some quality time with his big cousin Gavin, Grandparents, and Aunts and Uncles. Bryce and Gavin had met before, but now Bryce is a little more aware of people and activities going on around him, so he enjoyed watching Gavin play and you could tell that he would have loved nothing more than to get out there and play with his big cousin. We can tell that Gavin and Bryce are going to be the best of friends Gaivn even nicknamed Bryce "Baby Rice." So stinkin' CUTE! :)
If you look closely at this picture, you can see some of Bryce's shirt and his little hand. Gavin was bending down giving Bryce a kiss on the head. So sad this is at a bad angle, but still a sweet moment we wanted to share :)
Everyone loves a naked baby! Poor Gavin has learned the miracle of shame and did not appreciate being photographed in nothing but his unders. Bryce has not quite learned to be embarrassed yet, and didn't seem to mind.
Happy Mother's Day :)
Oh yeah, and Shane and I just got ENGAGED!! :) :) We are planning a destination wedding in Negril Jamaica November 2012! Reception in the Quad Cities to follow. Details to come!! :)
