Easter!

Easter was so fun with peyla that I shamefully didn't get many photos! Peyla woke up to the easter basket that was left for her by the Easter Bunny. Then we quickly cleaned up and headed to Brendon's parents' house to celebrate!

Grammy's brunch

Peyla's first Easter was such a wonderful time! We spent Saturday (the day before) at my mom's house for a lovely family brunch. Grammy and Grandpa gave Peyla the basket that was left for her by the Easter bunny. She was a little unsure at first but then it was pure excitement!




Trying out Grammy's new patio furniture and the chair made just for Peyla!

The Butterfly Exhibit

Brendon & I took Peyla to see the butterfly exhibit at the Desert Botanical Gardens last week. The exhibit was a small pavilion with several hundred butterflies in it and it was awesome! Peyla seemed to have more fun watching all of the other kids (there were several school bus loads!) than the butterflies. I think they were a little difficult for her to focus on. I tried to get some good photos but they just didn't turn out. We did, however, enjoy practicing some shots around the beautiful gardens!





Our own little butterfly! :)

More Mexico pictures...



Viva Mexico!

We headed south of the border to celebrate my mother's birthday last weekend and Peyla loved Mexico! She enjoyed the beach and loved the sound of the ocean. One stroller ride on the beach and she was soon asleep!
Mommy & Me shot Cuddling with her Nana
She loved bathtime in Grammy's fancy tub!

Where is the Easter Bunny??

Peyla has been patiently waiting for the Easter Bunny's arrival. In the meantime, she found her own bunny ears and decided to pretend!
