EASTER













Fooled YOU!





I had a lot of fun "fooling" my family this year. Particularly the boys.







We had meat loaf "cupcakes", jello "punch" and pound cake "grilled cheese sandwiches". They were totally fooled by it all. It was fun to see their surprise. Kyle totally ate it all up (no pun intended) but Noah seemed kind of disturbed by it all. It was pretty funny.

Weekly Update


...Experienced my first Wal-mart temper tantrum scene, compliments of Noah. Now that I have three kids my control has dwindled. No more Mister Nice Guy! You run and hide from me? No more fruit snacks for you! Now every time we go by the baby dept. at Wal-mart (which is where the trouble began and fruit snacks discarded), Noah tells me "Let's go and get my fruit snacks."

...Counting calories for the first in my life... Gotta fit into my summer clothes again.

...Noah has decided he wants to be "little" because little boys don't have to be potty trained.

...Went up to Rock Springs this last weekend to see my brothers two little girls, Emma and Holly, perform in the colleges production of "Music Man". It was SO nice to get out of town and even nicer to see those two cute girls on stage.
Staying in the hotel was the highlight of Kyle and Noah's trip. They decided it would be cool live there. Who doesn't want to live in a teeny room with no kitchen or play space? Oh and don't forget the Disney Channel!
The only pic I got of the whole trip...

From the Mouthes of Babes (Noah)

Today we asked Noah after church what he learned, not expecting much. His response, "We learn about Jesus. Jesus dieded and come back alive. The bad guy take Jesus clothes. The bad guy tie up Jesus. Jesus in jail and and and they putted Jesus on a cross. Jesus fall in the water." We think the water part was because the nursery teachers had a picture of Jesus walking on water.

We asked Noah where he learned this "My friend told me" and then added "Jesus is our Super Hero." Noah's teachers know Noah well enough to adapt the lesson for him to understand. To Noah a Super Hero is the greatest thing anyone can be. Calling Jesus "our Super Hero" made him understand what he did for us.

Thank you nursery teachers. You probably don't understand what an impact you make on little two year olds that can't even sit still during the lesson, but apparently you do.

Super Addiction

Noah and Kyle are, in a word addicted...to super heroes. Anything with a picture of Batman, Power Rangers, or Iron Man is something worth having. The boys have everything super hero from videos to undies and we recently had a Batman Christmas.


Noah is especially obsessed since he cannot be without his "little Batman" and/or "big Batman".


The obsession sometimes gets in the way of eating, but he works through it.
