April 2011


Starting to lose our view to the West of us.

Since Simon is back to teaching, we got to enjoy a little spring break! Our week started off with some fun! I had my ultrasound to find out what we are having in September. We are having a BOY!!! We are so excited!! He will be joining us sometime around September 7th.

We went to the aquarium.

Then we head to Idaho for a few days! The girls just love the dress-ups at Grandma's house!

You can always find a pair of grandma's glasses laying around. Why do kids just love glasses?!? I love this picture of Maya with grandma's glasses on! :)

The girls also love seeing the wind turbines. So we thought we would get up close. They are so huge!



Coloring eggs for Easter


Easter egg hunt
It was so cold that day. We finished the egg hunt just before it started to rain!

New Easter/Spring dresses
Nice poses!

Front Yard!!!

We got our front yard! We love seeing some green in our yard now!


This is the best "before" picture. They just finished the sprinklers and started putting topsoil on.

Curbing in and waiting for the weather to be nice enough to get the grass in.

Most of the grass in.

Patio in the front

DONE!!! Just need to get some plants in the front.

Random pictures that make me smile...

Just some random pictures that put a smile on my face.

Maya loves her glasses.

Can't go wrong with the pink cowboy hat, Superman sweatshirt, and plaid skirt!

Brynn is becoming quite the artist. She drew this elephant.

They begged and begged to go outside and use their umbrellas and rainboots. Didn't last long because it was freezing cold.

Making a pretty rainbow out of Pappa's "soccer drink" (Powerade).

Maya loved watching and feeling the rain hit the door.

Just a little reading break.

This one doesn't bring too much of a smile because she was sick with RSV (luckily a very mild case). But she still looks happy.

Maya the climber

Maya is our little climber. She wants to see what everyone else is looking at and so she will climb to do so. I had to work with her and teach her how to get down safely because she was all over the place and so I couldn't always keep an eye on her. She learned quickly how to get down the right way.

Pulling out all of the recycle stuff out of the recycle can.

When they started working on our front yard she figured out how to watch them. She loved watching them work!

Toy box

Random box

She likes to hide under the desk and sit on the shelf by the printer.

Little table that was once the safe spot for big sisters stuff. Not anymore!

This one cracks me up because she got the stool out of the pantry and pushed it over to the window in the kitchen and stood up on it.

Princess vanity

I just love this picture! My three little cowgirls!
