April 2011

The trouble with trying to recap entire months backed up as far as December when it's already mid-July, is that I sadly forget many of the details.  There are things about the kids that I mean to make note of that I just forget to do.  But, we have Easter and pictures of a few random days.

We dyed eggs the night before Easter.  In the morning, the kids had a blast following the trail of jelly beans out of their rooms to find their baskets full of goodies from the Easter Bunny.  Then they had an indoor Easter egg hunt because it was cold and rainy outside.  In the afternoon, my dad came down with baskets for the kids.  We had lunch together here at the house and the kids enjoyed playing with Funny Grandpa.  After naps, we headed to my mom's for dinner and MORE baskets of treats.

It's not a usual occurence that the kids "play" with their food and I indulge them with laughs and pictures, to boot!  However, on this particular night, the three of us were sitting at their "tiny table" eating grilled cheese and applesauce.  They were both being so goofy that I took out my camera and took some pictures of the moment.

Then here we have Dr. Claire Jillian Eash going to take care of her guys.  Preston is very likely going to take something of those instruments away from her because they always want what the other has. These two are growing up way fast.
