Easters

We had such an amazing easter this year, Amanda and our new niece Claire came to visit and we just ate her up. She is soo precious and got the most kissable little chubby cheeks!! Addi loved helping in every way and Brielle just liked to play with her little toes she thought it was so funny!



We had a small little easter egg hunt in our back yard with just the girls. Addi loved looking for her basket! Brielle thought all the easter eggs were balls and she loved finding them and then just throwing them again, that is until she realized there was candy in them, then the claws came out she threw an egg foil and all in her mouth and ran to gather all the eggs before her sister could.


We had to buy Brielle her own little Soccer ball for easter, ever since her sister started playing soccer, Brielle spends the whole game devising a plan to get past us onto that field to get a hold of that soccer ball, hopefully this will keep her occupied!!
We also got three easter packages with all the funnest toys including a cute Donald duck that walks and yells at you when you pick him up, the girls fight over who gets to pick him up!! Thank you Grandma Terry and Oma, you always send the best packages with the best candy ever.Now all we have been doing is devouring every last bit of chocolate in site, me mostly, it turns out that seven months pregnant and way too much chocolate in the house does not end well!! Look at that cute little face chomping down on candy!!!

Enjoying Spring!!

We are loving every minute of our spring already, Jake finally let me get cable a few weeks ago and I probably shouldn't let my kids watch TV 24/7 but the girls and especially me are loving the wonderful new discovery of Disney and Nickelodeon!!! As you can tell we love our lazy mornings watching TV especially when our buddy Milo comes to hang out while his mom is at school!!
Addi just started soccer, last week was her first practice and she was so excited!! She has her first game tomorrow which should be pretty entertaining but she loves it and loves being able to play on the same team as her best friend Isabelle!!

Of course just a few cute pictures of my little monkey, this girl has spunk!! She constantly has us on our toes! She has learned to climb everything, she climbs onto my tall table, countertops, the bookshelf and the very back of the toilets, she climbs up to the windows and stands in the window sills, and she has already learned to climb in and out of her crib! We can't keep her down she will climb anything in sight!
But she is still so very cute, I guess thats what gives me the patience from day to day.......
