Easter

Every holiday is always a very busy time for our little family. We started Easter off this year with dying Easter eggs, what would have been better? Aaden really enjoyed it this year. Although, he liked throwing the eggs into the cups, and watching the dye splash everywhere, but hey, that's what makes it so fun, right?


Then, once the boys woke up, Aaden and Brady got to play with their cool Easter baskets the Bunny left for them!! Aaden had ubers of stuff, from sippy cups to marshmellow baseballs to play dough eggs and hot wheel cars!!




Brady had a full little basket, himself!! The Easter Bunny must have known he would start teething soon, YES! he is already teething. One of his bottom teethies just broke thru his gums this past Tuesday!!

I was in awe of this picture, I am getting pretty excited about the boys playing together, with each other... this made my whole day!!


After all the basket excitement, we went outside for a little egg hunt, of course, the rubber boots, and Abbie's help were an absolute MUST!!


After the egg hunt, we took baths and got ready for Lottie & Pop's house...  where we visited with Lottie, Pop, Auntie Em, Andy, Uncle Dude, Mawmaw Jerry, Pawpaw Henry, Nana, Big Guy, and of course, we can't forget Pepper Girl.



After we visited with our Zachary family, we took off to Central, for the Hailey family Easter, where we also celebrated Madison's FIFTH birthday!!


We had tons of fun playing volleyball, egg hunts with all the kiddos, riding on Maddie's 4 wheeler, and wagon rides...

As always, we are truly blessed to have such an amazing family!! To celebrate such a wonderful day with wonderful people!!

The Mini Man turned TWO

Our little man, Aaden, turned the BIG #2 on Sunday!! Aaden also shares a birthday with his Seesha, Alisha Davis. I cannot wait until Aaden understands what an amazing friend she has been to our family, none the less, they share their special day together!
We held Aaden's party at KidZone, by our house, this year. We are so blessed to have an overwhelming turn out at these parties, we figured, all of our guests would be more comfortable inside, and not in the hot Louisiana heat. We had loads of family and friends attend this year... Of course, Bry Bry was there, in all of her cuteness! :)


For those of you who are lucky enough to know my amazing family, here are a few snap shots of the mother-daughter pairs that were there...

 Aunt Shanna & Granny
 Mawmaw Doris & Aunt Kathy

Aaden was loaded down with gifts... but I have to say, and I'm sure you can tell, Toy Story is ruling the Ingram house!! He was in awe! ;)

Aaden's Aunt Jennifer, made him the most adorable apron and chef's hat, this was one of Mommy's favorite gifts!! :) 
  
I was told, by several different people, we needed to host my Daddy's next birthday party at KidZone. Do you agree??


It's so hard to believe Aaden is already TWO YEARS OLD!! The past two years have taught both Evan and myself a lot about each other, and ourselves!! Thru all the hard times, to Aaden waking up wanting to go outside at 5:30 in the morning, the smile on his face will brighten anyone's day!!

With Love,
Courtney :)

Guess I'll give it a whirl...

My sweet little sister, Shelby, gave me this ingenious idea of starting a blog. Well, I'm certainly happy she is so smart. I figured, with Aaden just turning 2 years old, now, would be the best time to start documenting these hilarious times we spend with our adventurous, non stop, crazy, little man. Along with all the upcoming new & fun things, his little brother, Brady, will do.

I decided to name my blog ABCE's of the Ingram Household. Yes, I do know the alphabet has a D in it, however, our family does not, yet, have a D. Who knows, maybe we will get a fish one day ;)

Hope everyone enjoys reading our little family's story, as much as I will enjoy writing, and reliving all of our special events.
