I love these guys!

These two keep me so busy some days I think my head might spin right off! But, I love em!!

Bath Time!

Well, it has started. These two are going to get into more trouble than I ever imagined. I can see it already. Tonight in the bath, Mike was splashing like a maniac. I of course told him to stop, and right after that Henry started laughing. Well then Mike just started putting on a show and Henry kept right on laughing. And that was it. I was out numbered. A small introduction to what the future holds no doubt.

All the things I can do!

Henry has taken off! All of a sudden he can sit up, crawl, and hold his own bottle. He also says "mama" and "dada" discriminately. He's moving right along! In a few days he will be 8 months old. That is really unbelieveable to me!

Happy Easter!

Today we had a very relaxed Easter. We got up, hunted for eggs and went to church. The church was filled with more kids than I think I have ever seen there before. We got there just in time to get seats in the quiet room. Ironically enough, the quiet room is anything but quiet! I don't think anyone in there heard a word that the priest said. After church we went to McDonalds. Joe gave up fast food for lent and was super excited to eat a big mac!
Mike thought the Easter baskets were great. He looked for eggs for a couple minutes. He thought the Peep's that Joe got in his basket looked yummy, but after he tried them he thought differently and spit them out. Henry got some goodies in his basket too, but he was interested in getting ahold of the wrappers on the floor. We missed being at home with everyone, but it was a great day.

SOD!

Our yard has been the thorn in our new home buying experience. We put seed down last fall only to have it washed away by a tropical storm. Since then it has been a big sandbox. So now that spring has come we decided to put sod in. This has been such a huge job. Joe and two others have been working around the clock to get it all laid by the end of their Easter 96. So far they have logged a solid 20 hours and they aren't done yet. They are working their tail ends off, but the yard is looking great. Mike is having a blast too. He has been hanging out with the guys "helping dad" and in the process getting to have a ton of fun!

What a Week!

The whole clan came down to visit us over their spring break. It was so great. Everyone helped with the kids, mom cooked for us and mom and Roger gave us a lot of help and advice with our yard! I was so sad to see them go, but I think Mike was even more sad than I was. He kept saying he wanted to go with them to their house! We had so much fun. We went to the beach and out to Mike's Farm. The kids played with Mike the whole time. It was such a great time, I can't wait until they come back again.
The icing on the cake was our visit from Matt. He was able to come and eat dinner with us one evening. Mike thought he was the coolest! It was so nice to see him and what better way to show it than to put him to work! Joe roped him into helping us put in a shelf under the tv. As you can see, it was a group effort!
