Driving the Gator

The boys taking a ride...

Here the dental mirrors are having a little war.

Look Mom- No Cavities!

Tyler did very good with his first dentist appointment. Mom got her teeth cleaned first & Tyler sat on her lap to see all that was happening. When it was his turn he had no complaints & even kinda liked getting to spit in the little sink. And best of all- No Cavities

Happy Easter

The boys got their easter baskets this morning. Andrew was very excited but it took tyler a few minutes to wake up before he got into the excitement. Tyler left a carrot out for the bunny last night before he went to bed, this morning it was all gone except for one small bite. Both boys enjoyed what they found in their baskets. Tyler got markers, watercolors, paint brushes, glue, scissors, and stampers. There were wind up toys for the tub or the swimming pool and a baseball glove for playing outside this summer. Tyler got a book called Thomas comes to breakfast and he exclaimed "I have been waiting for this!" Andrew's basket had the movie Racing Stripes and a pop-up book. There were also wind up toys for the bath in Andrew's basket. There were matchbox cars and a stuffed bunny made of silky material.

After the boys undid their baskets they had an egg hunt in the living room & dining room. The eggs had candy and coins in them. Tyler was very good at finding most of them but Andrew enjoyed the few he got to first.

Easter morning egg hunt

yellow flowers

And why is it, that those little yellow flowers the boys love, are not flowers at all but weeds- they are kind of pretty in their own way...

One of the first great weather days to come our way. We enjoyed lunch at McDonalds & then took a trip to price park to feed the ducks. Andrew didn't care much for the ducks once he found the sliding boards & swings- Tyler on the other hand is not much for adventure and kind of shys away from the slides & such- but he does love the ducks!

Coloring eggs

This year the Joe, Tara & Ben joined us to color our easter eggs. Tyler loved coloring the eggs and was getting into it trying to do one egg in 2 different colors. Ben was all for it at first and then he decided it was more exciting to bang the spoon on the table or at one point, to bang the egg on the table. Andrew wasn't very interested in the egg dying thing- in fact when i gave him an egg he just tried to eat it shell & all. I didn't think that this was a very good idea so i peeled the egg and gave it to him. Andrew decided that this wasn't a very good idea. So i decided that Andrew was going to take a nap....

Andrew's opinion on coloring eggs....

MY FIRST SHOES

Andrew has graduated from the Robeez crib shoes to real shoes. Mommy & Daddy went all out and got him Nike Air shoes that light up green & red. But of course, we got them at the J.C. Penny's outlet for the bargain price of $7.99.
