This Month

April has flown by and a can't believe it is almost May! It has been a pretty busy month for us. We had Easter and the zoo, here are the highlights from the rest of the month....

The boys started soccer and love it! Conner really gets out there and runs with the crowd!

He really watches that ball and is not afraid to get in there.

He gets flattened and just pops right back up!



Kyler was a little nervous at first, but now gets right in the middle of it.

He always runs around with a smile on his face when he is out there!

They both get really get excited when their team scores! It has been a lot of fun to watch!

Kyler found instructions on how to make a bird feeder in the magazine from Grandma.

He built it all with just a little help with cutting and gluing. He was so excited and is still waiting for the birds to come.

I took a cake decorating class and learned all kinds of new things and perfected some of my skills I already had. His is my George I did to practice my star and line technique.

This is my rose cake.

I got the hang of making the roses after a while and had great fun in the class. I'm ready to take another one! I also had a fun girls night out with my neighbor we went to see 42nd Street. It was a great production and I had a blast just hanging out and visiting.

The Zoo

Last week was spring break, so Brian took Friday off so we could have a family day. We decide to take the boys to the zoo. It was fun...a little cold in the morning and a very popular idea but the boys had a blast! Conner loved the capuchin monkeys and the train. Kyler loved the tortoise, the birds, the tiger, the playground and the train. Annie liked the train ride and the animals that were larger and moving a round a lot. I loved the gorilla, we watched him moving things around in his cage searching for more food and eating a tomato, a peach, and celery. We also saw a baby elephant and watched a giraffe stripping bark off a branch. Annie took a nap in the stroller which was nice because it allowed us to stay later and as it got later in the day the zoo was not so busy so we could really take our time and just enjoy looking.

9 Months Old!!

Wow, another month gone...it has gone so fast. Annie is a very sweet, very busy little girl. She loves her brothers and wants to do what they do...which can be frustrating for them sometimes...but they love her. You have to be quick if you go outside or up the stair because Annie will be there with you trying to come too. She has 6 teeth now and will use whatever she finds to pull to a standing position.Annie also loves to dance and play in water. She is so sweet, beautiful and fun. I can't imagine our family without her.

Annie loves water especially her bath!

She will splash and splash and splash until she is out of breath!

I left Annie playing with her brothers and ran to start her bath water...I turned around to go grab her and discovered she had crawled into the bathroom...she crawled right past me and stood up by the bath and watched the water....I had Conner run grab the camera.

On the move, to busy for pictures.

Sweet baby

Fun at the park!

Happy Easter

We had a wonderful Easter. We had fun coloring eggs on saturday and the boys put themout on saturday night for the Easter Bunny to hide. The boys woke us about 7 on Sunday morning which is pretty early for us, they were so excited. They loved searching for their eggs and baskets. They were super excited to discover the Easter Bunny left them scooters!!

Cookies

The boys love making sugar cookies and so with Easter coming we did some festive cookies. I was also helping with Conner's class party and was in charge of treats, so it worked out well. The boys had a blast!
