Artwork and Acrobatics

Here are some of the things the boys have done in school lately.









At the zoo!  Rhys loved it!

These boys have turned into monkeys!  They have invented so many new games on the swingset - I love it!


BBQ and St. Patrick's Day

Yes, this is way back in March - I'm slightly behind!  We had our first BBQ of the season that weekend and it was lovely.  We've been so lucky to have beautiful weather all spring!  Rhys was loving the outdoors:


This was pre-crawling (we call it baby planking).  He's now crawling all over the place, pulling himself up and cruising along the furniture.  Nothing is safe!!


Landon's favorite foods are hamburgers and hot dogs these days.  Can you tell?


Here's a good toothless shot (he knocked his tooth out on a cement stair at the Rec. Center).  

I love spring!!




I woke up and made these for each person on St. Patty's day.  The boys only ate their favorite colors, but Scott and I at ours on waffles - yum!

This was the first year that Landon could read the Leprechaun note - he thought it was awesome!

Snake at the Park!

We have seen a couple of snakes this spring and it has been SO exciting.  The first one was this garter snake - he was sunning himself on the road:


Parker didn't quite trust me that he was ok to play with, so I had to pick him up and handle him for a minute.  Then Parker was all over it!

Parker had to share him with friends!  This kept them busy for at least an hour (until I finally convinced him to let the poor thing go home).

The next snake we found was a bull snake - slightly more aggressive even though they're not dangerous.  We didn't pick that one up :)
