A little springy silliness....

Oh the shenanigans when having a barrel full of monkeys!  Even though we have been plagued by sickness (long nights, floods of snotty noses, coughs and of course snuggles) we managed to have a little fun around here.
Emmett LOVES being tickled by his brother!

Elias got to ride a horse at the Circus

Page getting friendly with Emmett

Chima power!!!


Catching some needed vitamin D with Mama
Strut your super powers

Bath-time is always silly around here, and lately involves yoga and dinos.

Happy Baby

Diplo meet Emmett. Emmett, Diplo. 

Big D, Little D, what begins with D?
A duo of dino dudes...D, D, D!

Daddy's Do.

There is a new frozen yogurt shop near our house. Needless to say, we have been 3 times since it opened last week. We have a weakness for soft serve.





And so do our friends.... 

Getting ready for bocce season...

Party for Baby J. Stay tuned for J and Emmett's adventures...

April was the Month of the Young Child. We celebrated at school with themed days and Family Fun night. We wore our purple and celebrated being young...

A Little Spring in Our Step


Spring has returned. The Earth is like a child that knows poems.
                                             ~Rainer Maria Rilke

We welcomed Spring with a lovely Easter celebration. It was the first nice day of the year. The sun shined and so did the spirits of all.
 
The Easter Bunny Hit!

Elias checking out his stash of dinosaur books and Hungry Hungry Hippo

Emmett's Stash

The Annual Church Egg Hunt






We celebrated Daddy's birthday with some cake Mama made. 

Elias got to blow out the candles. The cake was a bit of a failure on Mama's part. Tasted good, but didn't come together like it should. Oh well, it was the thought that counts right? (Never mind she wasted 5 hours of her life trying to perfect a bienenstich cake.)

Phuture Phishheads

This weekend we headed down south to the border town of Louisville. There, one of Mama's old grad school friend lives, which we spent time visiting. Then we spent Saturday morning at Lego Fest. This was a really fun event for the whole family! Everyone got in on the action!!!


Saw an Indy friend there!






A Big Pile of Legos!

Elias got buried too but we were not that fast with our camera.



Making monster transformers

Who's that ninja? Oh, just Daddy...

Elias' new favorite Lego characters are from the land of Chima.


Testing out the Speedorz

On your mark, get set, go!

Big milestone during this weekend trip = sitting up!!!!

Even Emmett got to sit in a Big Pile of Duplos

Back home in Indy, if we were not playing with our new Lego stash, we broke in our new bike trailer/stroller/jogger. It's great!


Let's ride!!!
