Crew's First Haircut

BEFORE

 DURING

 AFTER

Bath time!

The boys love their baths! I was so excited and anxious for Crew to sit up and be steady while in the tub so the two could play together. Now I wish I could give one a bath without the other wanting to jump in!! Either way, it's always full of laughing, splashing and even some fighting (duh) over toys. And believe me, Crew can hold his own and voices his opinion!
Mommy and Crew after the bath. I come out showered myself. I don't understand how Brady comes out dry when he gives them a bath!
 Crew has an amazing laugh! It's super contagious and gets every one in the room laughing!
 our sweet boys!

 Now that Crew is moving around he likes to crawl and play in the tub. It scares me but he has NO fear when it comes to water. He even enjoys sticking his face in the water and comes up smiling every time!

Kite Flying

We were given a kite for Easter from Reed and Laura. On a warm, windy day we went to an open area (soccer complex) to fly the kite. I'm not sure if Cooper loved to run around freely or the kite more!
 he can't contain his excitement!


It was a beautiful day that we will always remember! Crew slept the entire time, which was nice so i could take as many pictures as I wanted. And as we were getting ready to leave an older man came with a remote control airplane and his dog. Two of Cooper's favorite things! Oh he had the greatest day!!

Walking

We have been doing a lot of walking this year. The boys seem to love sitting in the wagon together and we really enjoy some quieter time. Our favorite place to walk is along the canyon, of course! The sunsets are beautiful and the view are amazing. Cooper always asks to see the water and gets so excited about it! He's always looking for boats and birds. Not too long ago the boys and I were walking with a friend when I heard Cooper ask "what's that?" I look down to see him walking towards a garden snake. I think it scared me more than him and I reacted a little more dramatic than I should have. The snake was fine but Cooper keeps talking about how the "snake bite!" haha Every time we have gone back he talks about how the "snake bite!" Silly boy


Easter 2012

Reed and Laura came for the weekend and the boys had a blast! I ended up having to work two night shifts this weekend but was able to pull 30+ hours with a very short nap.

Church was a little hard with tired kids and an exhausted mommy but we made it through the day! After looking for eggs we had a delicious dinner with Reed and Laura before the headed home!
