Bounce U & Emma's House

A few weekends ago, Ashley and I took the kiddos to Bounce U to get all their energy out (a tough feat when you're dealing with two year olds). They had a blast and did almost all of the climbing and sliding all alone. They're getting so big!

Another big wall L can climb all by himself now.

Afterwards, playtime at Emma's house. L and E had a lot of shopping to do.

Emma has an awesome playhouse!

Not surprisingly, Lucas took a great nap that day. This is his post-nap hair.

Easter Weekend

Flashback to Easter weekend since I'm finally getting around to posting pictures. Lucas and I got the chance to head down to Birmingham for Easter weekend. We were especially excited to go because my grandmother, my cousin Isabell, and her boyfriend Dominik were in Birmingham visiting from Germany. I get such rare chances to see all of them that we were very excited. Lucas had never even met my cousin before since I've never gotten the chance to take Lucas to Germany. Hopefully I'll get the chance to take him soon!

On Saturday we headed to the Birmingham Zoo to get out of my mom and grandmother's hair as they were preparing for the 20th Annual Easter Brunch. I can't believe my mom's been hosting this event for that many years now. And it's amazing every year!




The "Easter bunny" (according to Lucas)


Deep in discussion

Sunday was Easter Egg Hunt and Brunch Time!

Hard to believe this is only part of the amazing foods. Appetizers and Desserts not pictured.

More Songs

I took these videos the same night as twinkle, twinkle and finally got a chance to download them. Enjoy more of our son's amazing musical talent.



And more ABCs. The new and improved (a few months older now) version.

Birdy Quotes

Two Christmases ago I turned this picture into a coaster for Matt. I couldn't resist.

Today when Lucas saw the coaster:

L: Baby drink milk. Baby no drink beer.

Smart kid. ;)

Birdy Quotes

Upon finding his bed nicely made up this evening with extra blankets folded and his animals nicely arranged on his pillow:

L: Uh, uh. What happened?

Twinkle Twinkle Little Star

Tonight at bedtime:


Anybody doubt that this little boy melts my heart on a daily basis? Good Night!

Yardwork

Getting wet and dirty is the best! Lucas always wants to be in the middle of the yardwork, watering plants, or anything else that turns him into a big mess.
