Before May gets away from us, I need to chronicle April!
These kids love to help cook!
Dressing up like Fix-It Felix from Wreck-It Ralph
I LOVE conference weekend!
This was a special moment watching President Packer's talk.
His talk was amazing and specifically resonated with both Kevin and me. If you haven't heard it, you can watch it
here.
I was feeling extra crafty and made this little sign for my bear, another sign for the table, and tried my hand at a table runner.
We watched The Sandlot for family movie night - the kids loved it, but holy cow! There are a ton of swear words for a kids movie!
Nana was on a mission to spoil my kids and sent a boy and girl Potato Head Easter Bunny in addition to some other fun toys!
We were invited to a baseball game with the Hansens and had a blast!
We even got to see George W. Bush from afar! (blue shirt next to the security guard)
An awesome Mavs game with the Chelius'
I loved spending time with Baby Molly! She is such a doll!
Colin has stopped napping everyday, but sometimes I can trick him into a nap if we snuggle and sleep in my bed! I love getting to spend one on one time with him, especially when he is being cuddly!
A few days before Easter, Reagan had a really high temperature for several days. She was so pathetic and sick! All she wanted to do was cuddle, but I didn't want to keep her warm so we made her a little bed on the couch next to me and watched movies and napped for a few days.
Look at how sad she looks!
With a temperature of 103.5, I couldn't leave her to attend Colin's Easter party, so thankfully Cindy was there to take pictures!
After a few sick days, Reagan was ready for a drive in "Daddy's Black Car."
She loves driving with the windows down!
After watching The Sandlot, Colin is convinced that the proper way to catch a ball is to stick your glove in the air and wait for a ball to drop in to it, just like Smalls.
While I was getting ready for Easter dinner, Reagan decided to sit at the table and wait.
She was still recovering from her bug, as you can tell.
The Spring weather gets us out side often!
Colin requested a big carrot and apples for breakfast one morning...he can be so strange in his eating habits!
We had a fun Ladies Night Out to see Beauty and the Beast and loved Gaston!
One of the fun presents Nana sent are these magnets. Colin spends HOURS playing with them and building houses, balls, and rockets!
Watching Toy Story with his little buddies!
We were so excited to have my brother, Steve, in town for two weeks while he completed some flight training! We headed up to the Rockwall Harbor on a beautiful evening for dinner and a stroll.
After seeing the play Beauty and the Beast, we had to watch the Disney original! The Larsen's let us use their media room for a fun morning!
I serve in the Primary in our ward and LOVE watching the Sunbeams each Sunday! They are hilarious!
I love this little girl and she loves eating corn on the cob!
One morning I watched Isaac and he requested a big carrot just like Colin! Silly boys!
I have the most amazing friends! I wanted to buy some furniture at Ikea and so Cindy and Kaity and all of our kids headed up to Frisco to outfit my new craft room! 3 moms and 6 kids! It was a little (or a lot) crazy but we accomplished our missions!
While I am cooking dinner, these two goofballs love to watch the picture change on Pandora...silly kids :)
Phew! Looks like we were pretty busy!
According to Colin:
- "You're the best girl ever!"
- "This was the best dinner ever!"
- "You're an awesome girl, mom!"
- "How'd your day?"
- Me (discussing the difference between boys and girls): How do you know daddy is a boy?
- Colin: Because he's handsome!
- Colin (perfectly healthy): "cough, cough. I have a cough! I should watch a show"
- According to his Preschool teacher when I picked him up from school one day he told her "That's my mom - she's beautiful!"
- "Ah! That's cute!"
- To Daddy "You're my best friend ever!"
- Me (talking about future professions): "You can be a fireman or a lawyer like daddy!"
These kids are keeping me busy! They are just so much fun!
