Easter Pictures

These are the pictures we had done of Michael, Nolan, Katie and Robby. They really turned out pretty cute...maybe next time the photographer will catch a smile from Michael but the pictures were so much better than Christmas!

This year with Michael's Easter bunny photo, Mike and I had to get into the picture because Michael started to cry and was trying to get off the bunny's lap. :)

Easter

April 12

Our Easter this year consisted of three Easter egg hunts, lots of candy, delicious food, lots of family, and chocolate Easter balls (compliments of Dave). The morning started out with Michael finding his Easter basket. The first thing he went for was a Cadbury Cream Egg(his new favorite). After that we had a little Easter egg hunt at home and then headed to church. We visited with the Mabin clan in the afternoon for another fun filled Easter egg hunt, and then we went to the Schanberger house for our third hunt and a beautiful dinner. All in all, the day was filled with happiness and love.

Dying Easter Eggs

Here are some pictures of Michael dying Easter eggs. What an experience!! In the end he ended up crushing an egg on the table.

Churchville Elementary Park

April 10

Michael loves the slides at this park. Just look at his smile. The one slide is so high and fast that every time he slides down his cheeks jiggle and make me laugh. I love watching him have fun!!

Nolan's Trampoline

Wagon Ride

April 9

I took Michael for a wagon ride today around the neighborhood. This is one of the only times I am able to get close up shots because he is sitting still. Here are some of our little lovebug!

Nolan is 2

April 7

Today Ashlynne and Matt had Nolan's 2nd birthday party at Chuck-E-Cheese. I can't believe our little lovebug is 2. He is such an amazing little guy and we love him so much!

Corvette

April 5

Recently, Michael has started being afraid of some loud noises. Here he is upset over Daddy's loud car. Only a few days later he got into the passenger seat and rode to the end of the driveway. It made Mike very happy!

Sharing a Drink

April 4

Here are the two boys sharing a drink after running all over Grandma's house. I love the friendship they share. It makes me so happy that they are so close! Look at the way Michael smiles at Nolan!

Chuck-E-Cheese

April 4

Robby's birthday was at Chuck-E-Cheese this year. Michael had a wonderful time. His favorite part was climbing in the tunnels and sliding down the slide. Nolan and Michael got up there together and for some reason they couldn't find the slide to come down so Ashlynne and I kept trying to yell and tell them which way to go. I think we looked like a bunch of nuts!!! Once they figured it out, Michael actually got down the slide without me noticing and was riding on the carousel with another family!! I nearly had a heart attack!! This is a picture of Uncle Dave and Michael up in the tunnels.

Handsome Boy

March 27

Today, Michael tried on Nolan's tux for Jillian's wedding. He looked so handsome and adorable.

It was really funny because the pants were way too big and every time he walked around they would fall to his ankles and he would look down and start to laugh. Of course, I was snapping pictures and cracking up. The more I laughed...the more he laughed..the more he ran around the room...the more the pants fell down! Finally he bent over, took off the pants and sat on the stool and laughed with me!

Our Three Boys

March 25

Today, Ashlynne and I took the three boys to the park. It was very challenging trying to keep up with all of them. They are so full of energy and it seems like they get even crazier when they are together. Michael loves Robby and Nolan so much...it makes my heart happy when I see them together.

Sweet Boys

March 19

Clover injured her back foot and had to have surgery. When we dropped her off today, Michael went in the back to give her kisses and then didn't want to leave her. When she came home with her crazy collar, Michael and Nolan kept leaning in to give her kisses and love!! It was very sweet and Clover was thrilled to have so much attention.
