B-A-Y-L-O-R Baylor Bears Fight!!

That was the battle cry last Friday and Sunday night as we watched our men's Baylor basketball team in the Sweet 16 and Elite 8 games.  It was awesome.  We went with friends on Friday night and Matt wanted to come along so bad.  So we told him that if they won we would take him to the game on Sunday.  So off we went Sunday night all geared up....
The ride down there was wild.  Doug and I were so excited about the game and we were just sure the kids would be uncontrollable and we wouldn't see a thing.  As soon as we stepped into the arena it's as if they were in awe.  They were perfect for the entire game.  They cheered and had fun eating cotton candy.  We had so much fun even though our team lost.  They played well though and the game was very exciting....those guys should be proud of themselves. 

The kids are excited about Easter.  We took them to the mall to see the bunny and even Matt was scared.  I can't blame them...that thing had huge eyes and teeth and didn't talk.  It took some coaxing, and I found out later a bribe from Dad in the form of green paper, but we managed to get a picture of them sitting next to the bunny looking at him out of the corner of their eyes and trying to smile.  We decorated Easter eggs so we are ready for our Easter egg hunt! 

Both kids are at such wonderful stages.  Baseball season seems to put Matt in a continous state of happiness.  He is so helpful with his sister and they are getting along so well....at the moment.  After spending the month of February in the bathroom (I forget how much time you actually spend in the bathroom while potty training) Marlie is doing great.  She has been so cuddly and loveable.  She is the little girl I have always dreamt of having.  She is a bit stubborn and feisty but she is sweet and funny and just beautiful. 

Happy Easter to everyone!
