Jack 35 Months

Jack, I know it seems as though just yesterday I worked on your previous month and I know that they days continue to fly by. I just wish you would slow down at growing up. You continue to love to read and love reading your "Waddle" book. Between you and your sister both of you make sure that you read daily and sometimes throughout the day. With the reading your vocabulary has grown tremendously and you are starting to put sentences together. You love playing on momma's phone, which you know how to get around on the phone and pick the apps you want to play. You love watching your movies and I think having the alone time when your sister is taking her nap. You have grown out of your naps and every now and again you will fall asleep whether on the couch or in the car. You love going to nursery and playing. You become very attached to certain toys in the nursery and even at home, mainly cars and trains. You love trying to figure things out and only ask for help if you get stuck. You love playing with your cousins and your best friend Vince. You are growing up so fast and you are learning new things each and every day. We love you!

Abigail 27 Months

Abigial, I believe I just wrote your last month not too long ago, but here is an update on your new month. You continue to make people smile and laugh especially when it comes to dancing to "Psych" or singing the "Swining Monkey" Song. You are adventurous and love to try new things. You have almost mastered all of the items on the playground except the monkey bars, but I know when you are big enough you will accomplish that as well. It is so fun seeing you acutally play with your brother instead of fighting with him, even though its on rare occasions. You still love to read and you make sure it is done daily and sometimes throughout the day. You are talking more and putting sentences together. You can sing the ABC's and count to 10. We are so proud of you and your accomplishments. You are so smart and learn new things each and every day. We love you!

Easter 2012

This year for easter was such a fun weekend. It started Saturday morning with us waking up late and rushing to Wheeler Farm for their easter egg hunt (which was sold out and they were turning people away), good thing we reserved early. We arrived right after they started, but there were plenty of eggs to find. We made it over the big bridge and in the grove of trees we decided to hunt for eggs there and to our little eyes there were a lot of eggs. Jack didn't really want to get the eggs, but after awhile he was all in. He was practicing for the egg hunt that was going to be happening at grandma's house later that day. Abi on the other hand dove right in and was finding all of the eggs that she needed to find. After we found all of the eggs we headed to a line that wrapped around by the animals. We had to turn in our eggs to get our treat bags and t-shirts. Once we did that we got into another line for the tractor ride. While we waited we visited the animals and got to see them up close. Once the tractor ride was over we headed to the playground and played for a little while, which then we headed to Grandma's house. Due to crazy schedules that were happening on Sunday we decided to have our easter Saturday starting at 4:00 pm. We arrive about noon and from there they kids played and I helped mom put stuff together. In the end the eggs were stuffed with candy, Logan hid the eggs for the kids to find later. For dinner we had artichokes, tomato and cheese salad, potatoes and baked honey ham with a cherry mint mojito for a drink. It was all delicious. After dinner the kids headed outside to finally hunt down the eggs. In the end, Logan hid 70 eggs and the little ones found each and every one of them. After fiding the eggs and opening them up and finding sweet candy inside it was time for dessert which mom made a potted cake. While we were dishing the cake, the kids started calling it dirt cake (with the oreos mashed up and the chocolate pudding - it did look like dirt cake. What a fun day to spend time with family and realize what easter is all about. How Jesus sacrified himself for us so that the mistakes we make we can repent and return to him one day. I can't imagine having to go through that, but I do know he was the strong one and he loves each and every one of us. I know that Jesus and Heavenly Father live and I know they love me and my family, that they do hear my prayers. Hope all of you had a great Easter!
