My Baby's Two!

Happy birthday, Buddy! I can't believe that JC is 2. How does that happen? Time goes by way too quickly. It seems like he just turned one. He is the cutest, sweetest little boy and I love him so, so much.

We went to Mr. Frosties and had some yummy ice cream to celebrate.

Easter

How crazy was that earthquake? Maybe Jesus was reminding us that He is alive! It was nuts and my cute daughter had the smartest and cutest reaction of all of us. She was outside playing with the boys and she dropped to the ground to duck and cover. I guess practicing once a month at school really works.

Speaking of my really cute daughter, she so gets Easter and knows what it's all about. I am so thankful that she knows about Jesus and that He lives in her heart. Yesterday I asked her, "Jae, what is Easter all about?" So sincerely she said, "We celebrate Jesus on the cross because he died on the cross for everyone's sins because he loves us so much. If he didn't love us so much he wouldn't have died on the cross. And, on Easter he rose from the dead!" Isn't that awesome?

We had a fun day spending time with family, hunting for eggs, eating too much candy and just being together. We went to church in the morning and then to the Coelho's for a yummy breakfast. It was delicious! John made waffles with strawberries and whipped cream, bacon, ham and hash browns. I love breakfast.

In the afternoon, we went to Aunt Mary and Uncle Marve's for dinner. It is always fun and entertaining to watch all of the kids play together.

Here are some pictures of our day (click on them to make them bigger).

Uh-oh

On Sunday, Jae went to my mom's house to help her plant the garden. When she came home, I asked her to wash her hands. She was in the bathroom for a long time so I went to check on her and this is what I found...

Apparently Jae thought that JC needed his hair washed. There was soap and water everywhere!

I love the weather around here! Today is such a beautiful day. We took advantage of the warmer weather and sunshine and went out for a bike ride this morning. The kids crack me up in their helmets. They look like mushrooms :)

jc and kacie

its really funny because jc didnt really like kacie, or any dog for that matter. but he has gotten over his fear and now he loves kacie. he really likes to lay on her and give her hugs and kisses. whenever we go to grandpa and grammy's house, he always calls for her.

we got a new camera lens and i love it. i don't really know how to use it yet, but i got a couple of cute shots of jc and kacie.

Christmas Lights

My kids love Christmas lights! When we are driving around they always look for them...even during the day. Whenever one of them sees a house that is lit up, they start yelling "Lights, lights!" And then JC always says "More." So, we decided to take the kids out in the wagon one night last week. They loved it.

Lots to post about...

It has been a really long time since I have posted...yikes! Here are some things that have been going on around here.

JC got his first hair cut and he was such a good boy...of course the lollipop helped :) The pictures are backwards so this one is the after shot.

And this is the before shot. I didn't realize how long it was until I looked at these pictures.

Thanksgiving...we went to Johnny's parents' for lunch and my aunt's for dinner. We have so much to be thankful for. We had a fun day spending time with family and eating yummy food.

And lastly...we found this in Jae's nose today. It's a piece of dried grass and it's about an inch long. So nasty! She said that it just got there when she was taking a nap at school today. I can't stop thinking about it and how bad it must have hurt. Hopefully she doesn't put anything else in there...ever again!
