Rockin' and Rollin'

Ender has been rolling for quite a few months, but now he's also rocking. And perfecting his darling little army crawl.

How we feel

Isn't this just how we feel somedays? :)

In full disclosure, this was a posed picture Eric took for part of a skit at church.

Still here!

I'm still here! I've had a few people ask if I'm ok since I haven't been blogging lately. Yes, things are great around here. My internet has just been finicky. I have to reset my airport every time I upload pictures! Weird! Anyway, I'm hoping to get things figured out so I can continue my online baby book!

Do a Dot

We pulled out the Dot paints today and here's what we came up with...

We printed out some pictures online for the kids to stamp in the designated spots.

Then we also drew secret pictures with white crayons and uncovered them with the dot paints.

Circus

Grandma and Papa have started a fabulous tradition - the Circus! We always have a blast. The strange thing is that this is the second year that Emmett has gotten the flu the night before (and then I got it). We still go though! Poor little boy got sick at the circus, but it didn't stop him from having a great time!

April Fools

It's April Fools day. Daddy gets home from work and here is what transpires...

Emmett: Daddy, do you want a glass of water?

Daddy: Um, no thank you.

Emmett: Daddy, could you please get me a glass of water?

Daddy: Ok (looking at my suspiciously)

Eric walks to the cupboard, still giving me suspicious glances. Pulls out a cup and heads towards the water spout on the refrigerator.

Emmett: No, Daddy, from the sink please.

Eric: ok? Now giving me VERY suspicious glances. He goes to turn on the water and...

...and...

April Fools!!
