Spring Program 2011

Jack had his Spring Program tonight.

He sang his little heart out. He is just so cute.

I could pretty much eat him alive.



I wrestled a 2yr old.
That is not fun. at.all.


And here we are!

No midgets were used in the taking of this picture.

MacGyver (aka Joseph) rigged our camera up to take our picture.

School is out for Jack next week and then Abbey is done at the end of June.

What on earth am I going to do all summer?

Josh turns 2!





My little man is 2!

I cannot believe it and I find myself wondering what I have been doing for the past 2 years because I have no idea how we got this far.

Josh is such a sweet boy.

Josh is also very feisty (as all of our kids are).

He is OBSESSED with Buzz and Woody.

He carries his figures with him wherever he goes, including to bed but I had to put a stop to that.

He will stick one fist straight up into the air and scream "Buzz!!!!!" or make rocket sounds.

We all yell "To infinity and beyond!" And off he runs.

So funny.

In the morning when we get him out of bed we have to ask him if he is a puppy or he will refuse to get out of his bed.

When we drop Jack off at school he screams for "Lileeeeeee" until I can find Cori and Lilly in the parking lot or in the building.

He loves her.

At his birthday party Lilly was sad because we locked the baby gate and she couldn't go down the stairs with the big kids.

Josh runs over, gives her a hug and stands there with his arm around her.

Chivalry isn't dead folks!

We sure love our Joshie.


And please excuse my phone pics.

Eggstravaganza!

The day before Easter we had our annual Easter Egg Hunt!

It was great. After raining (more like pouring) for days before it finally warmed up and the afternoon was beautiful.

We met lots of friends and cousins at the park to eat and find some eggs.

It was a great day.

Our kids hadn't seen their cousins for several weeks so it was a grand celebration.

Joseph and I went to bed talking about how we love having cousins who live closer now.

It is so wonderful to see them together. They all get along so well and play happily together.

I am so grateful for that.

I have an entire series of pics that involve me trying to take a picture of Jack and him doing the weird head nod. So ridic. Amelia was totally laughing at him.
My pretty girl.

Sweet girls.

Everytime I see this picture I laugh. Paige came running up to me once she got to the park before the egg hunt. She gave me a big squeeze (which I LOOOOVE) and said "Aunt Heather do you like my new outfit?" To which I replied a resounding "YES!! It's perfect for you! Pink and ruffly... super girly. Just like you".

Amelia tells me earlier this week that PAIGE declared that she is a tom-boy.

No chance my love.

Atleast Michael has the whole smiling thing down.

And you'll have to wait for the rest of Easter. I left my camera at Amelia's.

Our cuteness was documented but that's about all I can say about those pictures.
