April Catch Up

Last week I got a call from the school nurse saying that Audree was in her office, feeling pretty bad after tripping and bonking her face on a metal step. Poor girl got her mother's grace, and is a little klutzy. I loaded up the boys and went down to the school and my heart sank. Poor baby in pain...made my stomach turn. We brought her home and took it easy the rest of the day and also took her to the dentist because her permanent front tooth was wiggling.
She is such an easy going smart, loving girl, it just broke my heart to see her hurting.

The inside of her mouth look awful! Cut up and bruised pretty bad...it healed quickly but boy it looked sad.

 In Mitters news, he sure has an opinion about food these days. He doesn't like to be spoon fed baby food and grunts and screams in protest. He likes grown up food and he likes to do it himself.

He is also scooting around like a crazy kid. He loves being able to get what he wants

We took the boat out the other day when the girls had a half day...it sure is fun! The kids love the inner tube, and the wind in their faces. It was Emmett's first time and he loved it too except for the vest was a little too squishy by his face. 

Little love napping on Mom...awww...

He even got in and was splashing around so happy! And it was COLD! That's a water boy for you...

Doug had a campout the other night so we had a sleepover in Mom's room! I only slept about 4 hours but the kids sure had a great time.

The boys had a field trip to the PHX children's museum...Man that place is AWESOME! I wish it wasn't so far and so expensive... 

On a whim one day we decided to take the boys to school and eat lunch with our girlies. They sure loved it. I'm so grateful for these monkeys...

Lastly our favorite Aunt Alayne came and babysat the other night and brought a picnic and dollar store toys. My kids adore her and were in HEAVEN

7 Month Old Mitt one week late

I took these pictures on his actual 7 Month bday just didn't upload them until now! Emmett has changed alot this past month. He now scoots, can get from sitting to his belly, claps, blows raspberries, jumps out of your arms to reach to get what he wants, eats 3 meals a day and is very upset if you eat something in front of him without sharing.....

Here is goes...on the move!!

What a cutie!!

Easter Weekend and Boy's 1st friend party

These rowdy, energetic boys were able to have a friend party this year. It was low key and full of burps, yelling, toots, and loudness. We had a super hero theme and the boys loved helping me plan and prepare for their party.

I sure do love these boys

 I was going to buy a cake but just ended up making this one last minute. 

I tried to get the boys to do an obstacle course but they could have cared less...it was funny! So they just ran around, swang, jumped on the tramp, and played. 

 This dude was in full party mode-he wanted to be inside playing with his new toy that Grandma and brought him that day. He cried for about 45 minutes of the 1.5 hour party...bless that boy.

 We missed our cousin Simon- but here are our friend Cash, Walker and Quade. 

We enjoyed a beautiful Easter Sunday-I loved playing the hymns on the organ and singing with the choir and praying.

(I promise I'm not flicking Grant...just trying to get the boys hands down...)

We had our dearest friends Dave and Jessica over with their kids for a scrumptious dinner and egg hunt. 

 First time sitting in the grass.....he doesn't quite know what the think....
