Going Ons: random Felix family fun

Packing Peanuts!

Zack enjoyed lounging as well!

Zack is doing great at picking items up and shoving them into his mouth! 

He can even do it while sitting up now!

That's right!  Zack sits up!

He loves being able to watch everyone better now - especially his big sister!

He's pretty happy about it!  Wouldn't you say?

Easter: colors, clothes, candy

It had been quite a while since we had visited Zane's parents, so as Easter came up, we decided to visit for the holiday!  It was a long drive with two little ones, but the weekend was well worth the tears and frustration in the car.  There were a lot of new experiences for Adella this year! She was definitely old enough to color eggs... 


Getting ready!

Adella's first yellow egg!
This was even the first year for Adella to find Easter Eggs!  Zane's parents sprinkled the eggs around at the church across from Jeremy and Andrea's place.  

Here the kids (and parents) are lined up, ready to search and find.

Zack's first egg too!  Aunt Ang helped him find it.

Successful candy collection.

The beginning of the sugar rush!
The Easter Bunny found us at Grandma and Grandpa's house with no problems.  He even spoiled the kids with some fun new things! 

Dress, Shoes, Books, Small Barbie, & Candy

Church Clothes, Shoes, Books, Little People Toys... no Candy!

Zack's first Easter was a success!  He loves gnawing on his Little People and actually fits into the size 12 month clothes.  Adella loves carrying around her Barbie and was thrilled with the books.

Party: 'two' much fun for Adella

We had a get-together Saturday for Adella's birthday to eat cake, and it was a full fledged party!  Delli enjoyed every minute of the attention, and even though she couldn't produce enough air to blow out the candles, her wishes came true!






It seemed a goo idea to make a castle for the cake, and although it was a bit wobbly looking, it did the job.  The cake was just a white cake with the pink lemonade frosting.  The spires (my favorite part) were made from rice crispies that were made with the strawberry marshmallows rather than the regular white. 

Terrible Two's: just a beginning

Delli's special day was filled with immediate fun.  Zane was still working night shifts so Adella got open her gifts right away!  There's no better way to show one's princess that she is a princess than to get her as much princess as she can handle.  So our gifts were heavy on the princess theme. 


Her special day also included pretty pink princess cupcakes with pink lemonade frosting.



Which she devoured, of course.


We are also certain she loves her princesses because she carries them everywhere (even the little ones).  She sleeps with Belle, Cinderella, & Rapunzel.  I still cannot believe it's been only two years since Delli came because it seems as if she has been and belonged here forever!  Love you sweetie!


A special thanks to Great Grandma Anne for getting Zack this adorable "conductor's" overall outfit.  I believe the clothes are made for a 9 month old, but Zack fits perfectly.  We love how cute these are!

Blessing Day: Zack's Special Day

Blessing Day is a fantastic way to celebrate the birth of children.  I love seeing my little angels dressed up in white being held by their daddy.  This time around, I was able to make Zack's blessing outfit.  I was very concerned about how he would fit into his romper because he has gotten so side around the middle.  Surprisingly enough, the romper was certainly wide enough, but tight when it came to the length.  Luckily, I had messed up and had to reattach the snaps so I could make sure the romper was long enough. 

Thanks to my BFF Mavanie Stanley for taking these amazing photos!
We are so blessed we have the family that we do!  Quite a few of them were able to attend.  It was also very nice to have everyone fit snugly in our home for a small meal!  Thanks again for coming everyone!

The Incredible Zulk: A Two-month-old Exhibiting Extreme Growth

In the two months since Zack's birth, he has undergone an incredible transformation. He now ranks in the 99th percentile in both height and weight for two-month-olds. That means he is bigger than 99% of all other two-month-olds in both categories. He went from 8 lbs 3 oz at birth to 15 lbs 7 oz and is almost twennty five inches long! If you don't think that is severe, consider this; he now wears size six month clothes and wears size 3 and 4 diapers. That's rapid growth. Hence I name him The Incredible Zulk.
Here he is all Zulked out.

And here he is with Delli!

Doings: the fun times Adella has

Got her first haircut!  Just a trim to get the hair growing... hopefully!

Being a big sister!  She's the best!

Playing with her daddy!
