new camera...

new camera, means lots of random pictures! Hope you enjoy!

Henry is a bit dramatic!


Jack the little monkey.


Jack's bike from Bapa for Christmas...finally made it out of the basement! We love the handle!

I have some funny stories to tell...but we have a small issue with water in our basement so once I get that under control I'll try to write more! I was just telling a friend this morning that I was going to Spring Clean one room at a time and go through the entire house...but I was going to do the basement last! Agh...
Have a great week!

Easter Weekend


(no, there is not a binky in Jack's mouth!...agh...)

Friday night my dad and brother came down from Minnesota. They weren't here but a few minutes and we headed out the door to El Portal (amazing Mexican food!) and then went to our Good Friday Service (which Steve did a good job with!).

Saturday morning we went for a walk, raked the yard, etc. while we had 2 extra people around here. Jack was attached to "Knuckles" (aka Uncle Nels) side all weekend, so that was like having free daycare. Linda and Gary came over from Iowa City around noon and we had our Easter dinner. We basically hung out the rest of the day...naps, golfing, Jack hunted for Easter eggs in the back yard, and ate some more.
Henry with bunny ears that Grammy Linda made!



Today we headed to church and came home and ate leftovers. The Minnesota crew headed back in the early afternoon and we've just been relaxing since, well as relaxing as you can be with 2 little ones! The evening was going all too well, until Jack puked in the bathtub! Agh...swallowed too much water I think since he's been fine since.

Steve and Henry in their Easter outfits...Jack was taking a nap.

The boys with their Easter buckets full of treasures! Jack got play food, Wall-E, and a couple footballs from Bapa. Oh yes, and Pinnocio from Knuckles. Henry got a shirt for swimming and a hat, and a laptop activity thing from Bapa.

Okay, okay...

No excuses...just things are a little busier around here with 2 little munchkins than it was with 1! Things are going really well. We've had a few colds, fevers, etc. which is to be expected around here.

My dad and brother are on their way down from Minnesota this afternoon for our Easter weekend activities! Should be a good time. Easter weekend always goes so fast, but we'll enjoy the time we have.

I thought I'd just post some pictures...I really want to try to get better at this and blog once a week or so...hopefully that can happen! I just have a long list of things to do when both boys are down for a nap...yes, sometimes I just nap myself or read my book with no one bothering me!


Steve and Henry ready to go for a walk! Henry looks like a green monster in the Bjorn!

Henry is 3 months old today! Time just flies by!

We went to Iowa City for a couple days and celebrated Grammy Linda and Uncle Gary's birthdays. Jack is facinated with birthdays!

My new trick to give 2 boys a bath at the same time!

Nothing is better than a clean baby!
