Mud Puddles

A fierce storm blew threw this afternoon, lots of trees down and power outtages. We were lucky to only be left with mud puddles. After the storm had passed we headed outside with Aiden's new boots. He had a blast jumping and splashing in every puddle he found. Our neighbor Steve even came out, with suckers in hand for the boys, to see what all the comotion was about.

Bubbles

Bubbles have a new found love at our house. Aiden finally figured out that he has to hold the wand away from his mouth a bit get the bubbles to blow. Before he would get frustrated and give up.

Where is the best place to play??

When you're almost one and discovering new things all around the house, where is the best place to play?? In the cupboard with all the tuperware of course. Owen is getting pretty quick about crawling as fast as he can to the kitchen and whipping open that door to get to all the bowls and lids.

My Little Helper

Aiden LOVES Owen and is always asking to help do things with him. The other night I was trying to get dinner started and feed Owen at the same time, I'd feed him a few bites and then go back to cooking. At one point I looked over and Aiden had taken over and was feeding Owen. I think Owen eats better for Aiden than he does for me!




Gotta Love that face!!

Here Comes Peter Cotton Tail....

Aiden was so excited about the Eater Bunny this year, Grandma taught him to sing "Here Comes Peter Cotton Tail". He has been eyeing up Easter Baskets at all the stores. The Easter Bunny hid his basket this year and he had a blast running from room to room looking for it. Owen wasn't quite sure what was going on but once that basket was in front of him he figured it out quickly.


We had Easter Dinner at Papa and PapaMom's this year. All the kids had a great time chasing after the goats and running around outside, thank goodness the snow melted! Owen didn't make it the egg hunt, instead him and Daddy decided a nap was in order!

A Snowman in April???

We woke up this morning to a surprising 7 inches of snow, just when we thought spring had finally sprung. Mother nature sure played a trick on us, maybe it's a late April Fool's Day prank. The last of the big snow piles had melted and the daffodils were beginning to bloom. Aiden was a little perplexed this morning when we had him look out the window. He didn't understand why there was snow outside. After work he asked all the way home if we could make a snow man when we got home. We rushed home and left Gary in charge of dinner and bundled up to head outside. We built a snow man and even had a snowball fight.
