Easter






Happy Easter to all of you that visit our blog. I know that that is soooo many of you. We had a pretty calm Easter. We forgot to take pictures of most of it. We took the kids on an Easter egg hunt with a friend of ours. When we got to the hunt, we realized that we had forgotten the memory stick to our camera. Our friend said, no problem, we could borrow hers, then she realized that her battery died. Together we would either make the perfect woman or the most pathetic one ever.


Dying eggs turned out to be more fun than I had expected. I was ready for chaos and it was really pleasant. The kids took their time and really didn't make that big of a mess. Granted, I covered the counters with plastic bags and paper towels. They were thrilled that they had magic eggs. These eggs magically came out of the dye with words and designs on them that weren't there when they put them in . Thank heavens for the clear crayon.


I did the cheesy thing and dressed the entire family up in yellow for the day....which really only lasted until 2:00 when all of the kids, including Harvey, were covered in chocolate. We saw both sets of grandparents which is always fun. It is actually nice to spend most of the day laying back and enjoying the day.


I know that I am a nerd but when I have babies, I like to make them things that they can carry on as heirlooms for their own children someday. This year, Kelton got the homemade item. I made him a pair of bunny booties. They still fit him. He has tiny little feet though.

Kelton's Rebellion


Kelton is only 5 months old and is already starting to rebel. He stole the car and went on a joy ride!!! Don't stress and call the police. I am not Brittney Spears. The car is parked and we are watching the kids play on a playground. Cute though isn't he.

Beginning of a Bad Habit






How refreshing it is to be there at the beginning of a bad habit. We went to my parents home last night for the annual St. Patricks Day dinner. While dinner was still being prepared, the guys went downstairs and my brother turned on Guitar Hero. Ok, now even I have to admit that this is a fun game. This time, they let Kaeson play and he thought that he was king of the world. It has got my whole family hooked. My cute mom even plays it. He best song is "Shout At The Devil." Don't you just love it.

New Haircuts



So, we took the kids to get haircuts. They cut Kyra's hair waaaay to short and we are trying to find ways to fix it. Kaeson's was so darn cute until later that evening when he found his own pair of scissors to finish off the job. We are going to have to cut the sides down and spike the top to get it to look half way normal. Kaeson does like it spikey though. He now calls himself Lewis from the kid off of "Meet the Robinsons."

Kelty's Finally Home




After 8 days in Primary Children's Hospital, Kelton is finally home. He was hospitalized last week for RSV. A bad case of it to boot. He came home today on a probationary period to make sure that he can stay breathing well. We are so glad to have him home. And me, I am just excited to sleep in my own bed again.
