We got our first Canon SLR camera and enjoyed testing it out while the boys were playing. We figured if we’re going to go on safaris we better have a nice camera to capture the moments.
Hmmm, is this frog ever going to do anything??? Not much else to do on a rainy day.
Nicholas turned four this year, we can hardly believe how fast the time has gone.
We didn’t have a party this year, but we still had a fantastic day. We took Nicholas to Chuck E. Cheese’s for dinner. He loved playing all the ball games with Dada.
Nicholas is a pro at opening presents and had a blast opening all his birthday gifts. Mama and Dada went old school and got him a Lite Bright (I remember loving those when I was a kid : )
Every year I think I’m going to buy a cake, and then I never do. This year Nicholas wanted a “crab” cake so he got one. It was pretty fun to make and Nicholas loved it.
Hope all your birthday wishes come true, sweetheart!! Don’t think the bird wish is going to happen though : ) We love you Nicholas and are so happy that you’ve made our family happy these past four years.
My pride and joy before church today. Nicholas found my stash of jewelry and Ryan’s working hard on rolling over. I love you both, you’re such sweethearts!!!
Ryan is four months old today and growing up so quickly. He’s such a sweet baby, we’re so happy he’s joined our family. We love you Ryan!!!
Thanks Grammie for the cute costume you sent Nicholas. He tried it on immediately and wore it for hours…even to the neighbor’s house to play. It’s a hit!!!
He’s reaching for things now and is so amazed when he gets a toy that he can pull (bonus if it makes noise).
First time in the high chair. But sad to say, no food yet. We just thought he’d like to join us at the dinner table instead of sitting on Mama’s lap all the time (and getting food dropped on his head when he’s there : ) I’m sure he’ll be happy for the food in a couple of months and I’ll have to break out the floor cover for all the mess : )
Nicholas had fun searching for all the eggs at the ward Easter egg hunt.
Yum, we finally got a cupcake at the cake walk. Hard earned reward : )
The Easter Bunny didn’t forget baby Ryan. Instead of candy, he got a basket full of clothes.
About a month ago, for a family home evening we drove up to Oakland to let the boys touch the temple. We went to a little park to play, had pizza, and then went walking around the temple grounds. The boys literally got to touch the temple and it touched us as we talked about how families can be sealed together forever within those walls. We explained to Nicholas that one day he’ll get to go inside. It was a wonderful family outing.
These two just cracked me up acting funny in their little blue and green outfits.
Sexy!
