COSMIC RUN FUN and RJ

I had a crazy time with my "Hot Mama" store friends this weekend at the Cosmic Run! It was held at the Portland Speedway. We went out to dinner and drinks and headed to the race where we had a lot of glow run fun! I honestly think I unknowingly experienced my first Rave! Some people were there to run and others were there to do drugs. To each their own I suppose! HA! We all finished the 5k and listened to the concert before we had enough of the cold rain and went to another restaurant for a drink! It was definitely an experience I won't forget.
 

crazy picture accident....










 
Meanwhile RJ turned 10 Months old yesterday! WHOAH! STOP THE CLOCK!
 




 
He brings so much joy to our world! 10 months gone too fast!

Easter Sunday- Baker Family 2014

My sister sent me this photo from St. Louis...My niece and nephews!

Katrina loved church on Sunday! We met Phiona from Uganda. She is a now famous chess player and a Disney movie is being made about her life story. She is from one of the poorest parts of the world. Her father died of AIDS and many other people she knew of disease. She has such a touching story and Katrina thought she was so cool. We bought her book and got her autogragh!

Katrina took this Easter "selfie"
Had to Share some of the other Baker clan in North Carolina!

Pop with the Easter Bunny!

Karie, Sean and the girls!
Such a Happy Easter!

Besides the fact that Spring is in the air and we are loving it; we are busy as always!
 
RJ's favorite things are STILL bath time and swinging on the swings. He recently started pulling himself up to standing position and climbing stairs!
