Erik's New Glasses






Erik got his glasses today. He didn't want to wear them at the optical center for more than 3 seconds. I will be working with him all day to keep them on his face. He is already learning how to take care of them and wants to clean them all the time. This is grown up stuff for a 4 1/2 yr old.

Visit with the L's




Gramma and Papa came for a visit. The boys loved all the attention. I appreciated their help while Greg was out of town. We spent a lot of time outside. We couldn't have asked for better weather. One day while I was at work, Myra took Erik to the movies. While they were here I took Erik to the eye doctor and found out that he needs glasses. They are supposed to be ready to pick up later this week. Pictures will be coming soon.

Easter verses








Erik is learning Bible verses at church that he is committing to memory. The last two weeks he learned about the Easter story.

"Hosanna, hosanna in the highest!" ---Palm Sunday

"He's not here, but he is risen!"--Easter Sunday


Easter 2

Easter morning brought surprises to our household. The smiles were big!

Sleeping Beauties



I really enjoy checking on my kids when they are asleep. Erik decided to sleep with his animals tonight for the first time. He tucked them in over and over with his blanket before falling asleep with them. I told Erik he was being a good "daddy" to his babies. He reminded me that he was NOT a daddy.... just a little boy! Too sweet.

Gramma's silly stories





Bedtime stories are always the best....especially when Gramma reads them.

Bikes and Bubbles





Erik finally became comfortable riding his 2 wheel bike (with training wheels) during Gramma Carolyn's visit.

Kyle had fun blowing bubbles with Gramma.


Kyle's tantrum photo shoot




Gramma Carolyn bought the boys matching shirts when she visited. I tried to get a nice picture of Kyle in his new shirt. He just ended up screaming the entire time. It is so typical of him...I had to share.
