party pooped

A couple of weeks ago we went to our friend Ashlyn's first birthday party.  We had a great time and were happy to celebrate with Ashlyn and her family and friends too!  On the way out we were given a balloon for Teague and naturally, he was excited about it.  Half way through the drive home he lost hold of the balloon and kind of whined about it and since I'm a tough love kinda mama I just said, "oh well, you can have it when you get home."  Fast forward to pulling into the driveway and as I turned around I found this...


...I guess sister wanted the balloon too!  AND she was not letting it go cause she was zonked out right alongside her brother!!!

swinging fun

After playgroup we had some time to kill before "Oma lunch" so we headed to a park to swing and slide.  I was such a good time!

april playgroup

I taught Teague how to use scissors. I hope this doesn't come back to haunt me.  Although at some point it becomes a rite of passage, right? (to find your kid with their own haircut)

  Oh yeah, we were cutting up icebergs for the penguins.  Then worked on a puzzle...

 ...the sensory table, oh how we love the sensory table...


...our girl gettin' in on the action.  But I had to watch her like a hawk to make sure she didn't eat any of the kernels.

Happy Easter!

While we know that Easter really has nothing to do with bunnies and eggs, they sure are fun to look at and fun to color (might I add messy too)!

 oooh! here they are... I experimented a little bit, but I love just plain old color too.

Happy Easter everyone!

daffodils & lemon bars

It seems that I remind Drew quite a lot how much he never buys me flowers.  On our anniversary he surprised me with these daffodils.  I know that he bought them from a stand on the side of the road for a $1 a bunch (he bought 3), but who cares?  I loved them!


 I made lemon bars for dessert that night and I can see now that I may or may not have added too much powdered sugar.  Oops!  I also may or may not have eaten 2 pieces.  Don't judge ~ it was my anniversary!
Happy Saturday Everyone!

fiddler on the roof...

My brother Alex was in the show Fiddler on the Roof this weekend.  It was a children's production and it was awesome!!!  I'm so proud of my Alex, but I'll admit it was really hard watching him get married on stage.  I tried not to think about it too much because I probably would have cried.  Anyways onto the other half of this post.  We asked our great friends Dave and Ashley to watch the kiddos for us AND they even brought us dinner.  We are so spoiled by them!!!  Ash took some cute photos and a video.  Enjoy!
