Just In Case You Are Wondering What I Look Like These Days ;-)

Just Like Dad

 Nick LOVES wearing a ball cap these days. If you look at him and say "Hey Chris" he just eats it up! Chris will usually put all of his stuff in his hat at the end of the day and put in on the counter like this:

 The other day when we got home from running errands, Nick took his hat off and asked me what he could put in his hat. He ended up putting some random stuff in it, like to go hand sanitizer, a few coins, and a plastic Easter egg. I assume, that since Nick never sees any of these items with Chris, since he puts things in his pockets that he thinks the items are still in Chris' hat when he wears it, because he put his hat back on when we were going to leave again and said, "dad, I don't think I am going to wear a hat this time because it doesn't fit on my head right with all this stuff in it! HA HA!!! LOVE him to pieces!!!!

Needless to say, he now wants to wear pants with pockets. 

The Many Faces of Olivia

No Daddy Go Night Night

Birthday Bashes

We have had birthday parties the past 2 weekends! The first one was Will's birthday! He turned 3. He had a Airplane Birthday Party! This first picture is of all the neighborhood kids! 

 AND, Sara, a lovely friend of mine remembered I didn't like frosting. She left one cupcake unfrosted!

 The next birthday party was for Nick's good friend Brennan! He had his 7th birthday party at the Bug Lady's. Now Nick wants his next birthday party there! You will see that the bunny there was quite a hit!

Olivia the Gymnast

Last week Olivia had her first gymnastics class. She was so excited to go and had her outfit all picked out for the big day! She did pretty well for her first day. She loved the balance beam and the trampoline. 

The first two pictures are from her first day: 

 Today was her 2nd day of gymnastics! Once again so excited to go! I was able to sneak in a few pictures this time.

 already making progress. She didn't climb the ladder last time, she just walked between the bars on her first day.

Bicycle Weather

Nick has learned to ride a bike! We started Saturday morning and he was a pro by the end of the day!
