Our GORGEOUS tree!

Isn't it pretty?

I love it!

"Cat food is not for little boys"

Ah, the things you hear yourself saying to your kids ........

Only a few pictures this weekend. We were sick with colds, but the boys were happiest when they were out looking at things. So we went to Ikea, and the zoo for a quick walk. And me and Jack went to Target yesterday afternoon. They were great sleepers this weekend!

We want to march around, we don't want to ride in our strollers! Problem is, we don't follow direction very well.

Jack Video

This is a video my sister took at Easter -- Jack was a little jumpy around the mooing cow!

Last weekends pics

Our new sand & water table -- our birthday present from Great-Uncle Darryl and Aunt Nancy! We love it!

"Seriously Mom, can't you see I'm a little busy here?"
-Aiden

Uh-oh. They've learned how to open the screen door!

And Jack knows how to say "uh-oh!"

We put sand in it that Grandpa Pat found -- it's Crayola sand and it's colored. It's pretty neat!

And here we are in our wagon! Our birthday money put to good use. :)

My Jack. :)

The boys take on the Capitol.....

The boys came to visit me yesterday .......

Here are our future politicians . :)

Jack
There are a lot of steps to climb to get to the door.......this could take him a while!

Man, too bad the Twins just got a stadium, I mean, these guys could have done quite the job lobbying for it!

Ready, get set, GO!

One more for today......

I miss them SO much while I'm working....

Things I find hilarious about this picture:

1. I just realized I'm wearing leapord pajama pants in this picture. These are not supposed to EVER be seen by the public -- especially considering the fact that I bought them when I was 14. Yes, FOURTEEN. They were much cooler in 1998. OK, maybe they weren't even cool then.

2. Aiden is totally jumping ship here. He may sorta look like he's smiling, but he's trying to wiggle down.

3. The cat blanket (yes, our cats have a pink blanket in their favorite spot on the back of this chair by the window) is clearly featured. In our living room. Yes, we keep it classy at our house.

I'm so excited for the summer, when I have loads of time off from work!!!

Legislature ...... please be done soon!

Farm Babies!

So, we made a spur of the moment decision yesterday....the boys were in a good mood, and so we went to see Farm Babies at the zoo! So packed - but so worth it! Just a few pictures.....it's hard to hold babies AND take pictures (and make sure babies haven't wandered off......)

yeah, they SO were not interested in taking a picture with Mommy

Chickens!

Some space to run around!

We liked the goats. :)

Climbers.....

They sure do love to climb!

Videos

Here's a few videos I just never got around to posting......

This one is of Aiden dusting....very helpful! Jack also makes sure to get in an appearance. :)

Bopping around outside

Aiden bites it in this one (you'll notice it in the background coming down the hill!).....but he doesn't seem to notice and keeps right on going!

**Happy Easter!**

Hehe this is a group shot but no one is looking but me....

They LOVE rides on Daddy's shoulders!

Look! I'm sitting in a tree!

The mooing cow was a big hit

Aiden --- of course wandering off by himself (he refuses to hold your hand while he walks, he wants to do it all by himself!)

Spring Flowers

SPRING is HERE!

Aiden found last night's bottle.......oh no!

He (Aiden) is obsessed with his tongue lately

This took quite a few tries before we got a good one!
