iPhone Pics Vol 4

It's that time again.  Time for my huge iPhone photo dump.  Here ya go!
 
 
Park time with Isabelle.  Loving their bikes!
 
 
 
Two cuties at the table.  This was Audrey's first time out of the high chair and probably like 2 months ago!


Horsey ride with Daddy.


Grill time!


Two tiny Romos.


Chef Luke.

 
 
We have had a lot of little sickness' in our house this winter.  Here is Luke getting his ear infection checked out.
 

Not feeling too hot. Got to spend some special relaxing time in Mommy and Daddy's bed.


I went into the kitchen to do some cleaning and about 15 minutes later came back to this fully dressed cowboy watching Curious George. Hmmmm...where did sick Luke go?


Super Luke.


This boy is into superheros!

 
Tula dance party.
 
 
Luke is very into dressing himself these days.  It is nice, but he gets pretty picky about his clothing choices, which can be a battle.  Well... he walked in wearing this.  I told him he needed to take his socks off, because socks and sandles don't go together.  He simply replied with, "Then why does Grandpa wear them?".  Hmmmm...good question. ;) 
 
 
 
Bathtime fun!
 

We had a recent playdate with our old family friends, the Tscheopes.  My how times have changed!


Another sick Luke day. :(


Super Luke on a walk with his super hero "gloves".


Audrey gets in on the dress up every now and then.


A rare date night! 


How did we spend it?  Well, we bought this bad boy!  Yes... it is a minivan.  I never thought I would ever get one, but I love it!  You can officially call me a minivan momma!


Date night was also spent consuming this little piece of heaven.  A nutella calzone.  Yummy!

 
 
We recently went to one of Brian's basketball tournaments to watch, and Luke loved watching his daddy on the court. He insisted on wearing his basketball gear as well.  He even got to sit on the bench for part of the game. :)

 
 
Daddy's team won, and Luke was so proud of this trophy.  Unfortunately, Luke left the trophy at Jason's Deli.  It was not pretty! 
 
 
Library time!


Audrey was mezmorised by story time. (for like 5 seconds)

 
 
We officially have a cereal eater!
 

Benjamin came to spend the night, and was very into Uncle Brian.


We got to church last week, and I looked down, and we were full on in matching family outfits.  Whoops! 


Loving this weather and the swing!


At a doggie birthday party.  3 out of 4... I'll take it!


I was trying to be a fun mom and make a Sonic run.  The kids were so excited with their treats, and even more excited to be drinking them in their carseats.  I was super impressed with how clean Audrey was being...

 

Oh wait, spoke to soon.  Mom fail!

Jejus Has Risen!

No, that is not a typo in the spelling of Jesus.  Our little three year old calls our Saviour "Jejus", and it is precious!  We had a wonderful weekend celebrating the Resurrection.  We got to spend time with each other, family, and friends.  We are blessed! I have a ton of pics from the weekend, so here ya go!
 
The weekend before Easter, we were suppose to have a neighborhood egg hunt and Bunny meet and greet.  Well... it rained and got cancelled, so instead we got together with some sweet friends, ate pizza and had our very own egg hunt.  The kids loved it!
 

We continued on with the egg dying tradition, and Audrey was very into it.  A little too into it...if you know what I mean.  What a mess!



If you look closely at Audrey's face in this pic, she is very upset that she can't dunk her entire hand in the dye.


She recovered quickly!




Luke was so proud of his eggs!

 
 
Saturday night we went to Nonnie and Grandpa's for dinner and yet another egg hunt.  This was Audrey's first real egg hunt, and she was a pro!  
 





Sunday we woke up, and had found some goodies from the Easter Bunny.  This bunny brought bubbles, a ball, a Batman shirt, and some brooms!  Guess what gift was the most popular... the brooms!  Haha!  Mama is loving it! ;)


It was super stormy Easter Sunday, but we were able to beat the rain and had our egg hunt outside. 




After making "Jejus" Rolls for breakfast, we headed to church. Loved dressing up these two little people!


 

After church, Brian and I looked over and Luke and Audrey were walking out holding hands.  Melt my heart!


 
 
We headed over to Tula and Pop's for a yummy lunch and yet another egg hunt.  These kids are spoiled!
 




That wraps up our weekend!  While having multiple egg hunts and yummy food is always fun, what I really enjoyed most was seeing and hearing Luke understand a little more about what the weekend is really about.  "Jejus died for us, and Jejus has risen!"

Oh, This Boy!


Well...in the past 19 months, this boy has managed to cut his head on three separate occasions, needing three different types of medical intervention.  The first incident happened the day we brought Audrey home from the hospital...yes that is correct!  He fell off the couch and hit his eye on the coffee table.  That one needed stitches.  Then about 6 months ago, he was goofing off at dinner and his hand slipped and he hit his eye again (yes, the same eye!).  That one needed Dermabond.  On Monday, he was pretending to be Shrek in the shower taking a mud bath, slipped and hit his head on the shower bench.  Cut number #3!  He had blood streaming down his head, but after the initial shock, was jumping around like a crazy man, and said his head didn't even hurt.  Even though he was "pain free", he needed some medical attention, and was seen at Acute Kids for 5 staples in his head.  My gosh, this boy is a mess!  I honestly don't even know another kid his age who has even had one incident, so three is a little ridiculous!  
 
Here he is just care free waiting in the waiting room.    

All those medical supplies don't scare him.  He's an old pro! ;)


Precious boy, post-staples.  He thought the head wrap was so cool, and insisted wearing it to school the next day.  That sure got him some attention!


He is doing great now, and the staples come out on Monday.  I have a feeling this won't be our last incident.  We sure have one rough and tumble little guy!

School Egg Hunt


Luke had his class egg hunt on Thursday, and Audrey and I got to go watch.  It was so cute, and Luke had a blast.  Here he is with his class walking out to the field.
 
 
 
Wow!  Look at all those eggs!
 

And they are off...




Luke was so excited to show off his basket.


He also loved his Easter hat that we decorated at home.  He thought it was so funny that he was a bunny.  Love this boy!
