Visit from Uncle J and Lauren and Boys Prayers

It was a nice weekend weather wise and for relaxing too. Jonathan and Lauren came to visit Saturday and we packed picnic baskets and headed to the park. It was such a pretty day, but it had stormed the night before. We put down our blankets to sit down and eat lunch and soon realized we were going to get a little wet on our bottoms. The ground was still a wet from the rain Friday night, but we decided not to care. It was so fun sitting outside to eat. Ryan had a ball crawling around all over the blanket. After we ate the boys and Uncle J and Lauren played on the playground for a while and me, Scott and Ryan walked over to the lake to watch the ducks and feed Ryan lunch. The hit of the day was the bubble blowers that Uncle J and Lauren brought them. They blew tons of bubbles with the push of a button. No more old school bubbles where you have to blow them yourself! Super cool toy. After the park we cam back to our house to hang out. Thanks for the great visit! Sunday we went to church and then to our favorite mexican restaurant- La Cocina. YUM! We just bummed around the house the rest of the day. I took some cute video this weekend. Ryan loves the vacuum and has fun chasing it. The boys got out their toy vacuum and he would follow them all over the house with it. It was pretty funny. He is a fast crawler now...take a look.


Another cute video I took is of the big boys. Every night before I put them to bed we say prayers. They must have said them over and over 6-7 times last night (stalling to go to sleep I believe). I went and got the video camera but I took the video vertical and I can't turn it. So turn your head side ways and enjoy. Oh well, I tried.

The boys start swim lessons on Tuesday so that is very exciting. I can't wait to see my little fish swimming all over. Stay tuned for videos of that! I can't believe May is almost here. I am ready to put April behind us though with all the sickness that we dealt with. Have a great week!

Cute even when sick...

It has been an exhausting 3 weeks of ear infections, stomach viruses, colds, allergies, shots, and doctor visits! I was so spoiled with the twins never being sick at all that I believe Ryan will make up for the both of them. Scott took him to the doctor again this morning and guess what...another ear infection. Woohoo! I know something is wrong when that boy refuses a bottle. He loves to eat. God please make my family healthy and strong as fast as possible! I never knew how draining all of this was. All of us have been under the weather the past few weeks, so I am looking forward to happiness and wellness very soon! We still had a nice weekend even with all the sick people in our house. GiGi and Grandad took us to lunch Sunday and it was a gorgeous day here! We sat outside Pappadeaux in the courtyard for a while just enjoying the sunshine. After that we came back to the house to play. Here are some photos from this weekend. So cute even when they're sick.

Easter, West, Bath and Dr appt

Whew! It has been a busy week. Easter in West was fun and exhausting at the same time. The kids love being on the farm with JoJo and PaPa and they especially love to hunt Easter eggs there. Here are a few pictures from the trip.Ryan didn't understand what was going on, but he sure liked the plastic eggs and his Easter basket full of baby food. He also got a camo bag with his name and some monkey pj's.Jayson thought the Easter bunny was so silly for hiding an egg in his shoes. He kept saying "that Easter bunny is so funny mommy".

After the egg hunt the boys showed off their eggs.

Once we returned home, we bathed Ryan in his big boy bath seat! He also had his 6 month dr appt. He weighs 18lbs 6oz and is above average in height and weight. Big Boy! Here he is at the dr visit. He only had to get 2 shots this time.
