Gymnastics

Last week we had our awards night for gymnastics. Daddy had the camera as he sat in on Miss E's session, so we didn't get a lot of pictures of the little man.

But here they are with their ribbons.

Here is her final "Tada" before she got her ribbon!

Baby on the Brain

Miss E has been asking a lot of questions about the baby that is growing inside mommy's tummy! Here are just a FEW of the ones I can remember:

* "When the baby "pops" out of your tummy, who's house is it going to live in?"

* "Mom, who's belly did you "pop" out of?"

* "Mom, is the baby wearing jammies?"

* "How come the baby gets to do whatever it wants?"

* When someone asked her what she thought the baby would be, she answered, "I don't know, it is probably a boy or a girl!"

* "Mom, do you have to mash up all the food you eat before the baby gets it, so it doesn't choke?"

Little E on the other hand doesn't ask a lot of questions. However he loves giving my tummy kisses and talking to the baby. He has also been seen at home and at daycare carrying all his animals rolled up in his shirt and telling everyone that he has a baby in his tummy! :-)

Catch!

This week Miss E started T-ball. Daddy is helping out with the coaching which is yet to be determined if it is a good thing or a bad thing! After practice number one, we think it might be a bad thing since Daddy claims all she did was cling to him!

We have been practicing our catching in the living room each night and she is getting better and seems to enjoy it. She said right before bed that she won't hold onto Daddy next time she goes to practice. We'll see!

Here she is trying to make a catch tonight. Note Mommy is a bad at throwing anyway, but when she is trying to videotape and toss, it isn't pretty! Also note Little E in the background. We need to find him a right handed glove, since he is proving to be left handed and fights us each time he has to put the glove on! He will wear it on the left if we make him, but then takes it off to throw left!

Babysitting

This weekend we had so much fun babysitting our niece Millicent! She is such a good baby!



We also had Addi come stay with us too, to help out! She was a big help . . . wish we had an "Addi" of our own! ;-) Sure makes things easier when you have three sets of hands, instead of two!

What a GREAT weekend! Can't wait for our girls to come back and visit us again soon!!!

Dance Program

On May 1st Miss E had her spring dance program. It was so fun for us to see how she has really matured this year from the first program where she just stood there moving her feet a bit to now actually doing all the steps and even seeming to enjoy it! :-) We were very proud of her!

After the program it was time to watch all the other girls. Miss E only made it through a couple songs before she feel asleep on Dawnie's lap! All this dancing stuff is tough work!

Baptism

Last night our sweet little niece was baptised.


Here we are before we left for the church. We were worried that her baptismal gown wasn't going to fit, but it was just right!

Here we are at the start of the service giving Millicent our blessing.

She had everyone in the church entertained because she would scream when the water and oils were placed on her, but as soon as the Priest talked she would stop.

Easter Day

Somehow that Easter Bunny always knows were to find us! We had fun searching Grandpa and Grandmas shrubs for eggs. We each had our own color to search for and we did really good at spying all our eggs! :-)

Easter Boots

Papa and Nana Bunny bought everyone rain boots for Easter this year. Aren't they cute all lined up on a rainy morning?!?!

Easter at Nana and Papa's

We had SO much fun at Nana and Papa's house this weekend! We had great food, great activities to do, and GREAT company! :-)

The Easter Bunny must have known we wouldn't be at Nana and Papa's house Easter morning, because he came a day early! Wasn't that nice of him?!?!

Here are the two early risers up waiting to go into the great room to find Easter Eggs! They were told they can't go in, until everyone was awake!

The Easter bunny brought everyone a new pair of sunglasses. We think Baby Millicent was the cutest in her pair!

This was the first picture I got of her smiling all weekend. Little stinker. . . we tried to get her 3 month pictures taken this weekend and she wouldn't smile for any of them! Check them out on my photography link!

Painting Helpers

This weekend Daddy and Grandma painted the two bedrooms downstairs. One of the rooms is going to be Miss E's. She wanted it pink and purple with mermaids and princesses on the walls. I am not sure about the mermaids and princesses, but we did let her pick out the color and this weekend we got it painted all pink. Mommy will go back later and add some purple accents! :-) Both the kids had fun getting to help paint. They would slap it on the wall and then yell, "More Paint Please!"

Baby Number 3!!!

We had our mid-point ultrasound on Friday and baby #3 was active as ever. . . and SO cute! ;-) We decided again with this baby not to find out the sex since it is so fun being surprised! We each have our guesses of what it is, but I guess we will have to wait and see who is right!

This first picture is his/her profile, with its hand up over his/her head.

Then we had to post the one of its foot. Isn't it cute?!?! :-)
