Thanks Pop Pop and Miss Jill!

TPG got a pair of "roller blades" for his birthday from Pop Pop and Miss Jill. The weather has been so rainy that he just got a chance to try them out today. It was quite funny. He is not wearing any protective equipment in this video but we went out immediately and purchased elbow, knee and wrist guards. Knock on wood, we have never made a trip to the ER with the kids and I don't want to start now :)

Happy Birthday in Spanish

TPG celebrated his birthday today and I stopped by his Kindergarten class with ice cream cups. TPG is in a Spanish Immersion program which means that he receives instruction in Spanish for half of the school day. He is not learning Spanish but learning IN Spanish. The students in his class sang to him in Spanish and English. Then his teacher asked him a question in Spanish and he answered it in Spanish. I have absolutely NO idea what they were saying but TPG seemed to understand. Totally amazing.

More Easter Fun

The kids had fun hanging with family and having an EasterEgg hunt. The last picture is of DCG hanging with her favorite Uncle Tony. Sorry all you other uncles out there. DCG just really loves her Uncle Tony.




Happy Easter

The Easter Bunny visited our house last night. We did not build it up or really even talk about the Easter Bunny this year. TPG has pretty much figured out that Santa and the Easter Bunny are us and he is really not good at keeping his mouth shut. So, I thought if I did not bring it up, he would not ruin it for DCG. The plan worked pretty well. They discovered their Easter baskets and were pretty excited. Notice DCG is wearing the same dress as on Christmas morning. She insists on wearing it most nights when it is not in the wash. Thank you Aunt Ahren for making this dress! We are heading to Falmouth to attend services at Pop Pop B's Church and then to Tollesboro for some more Easter celebrations. More pictures to come.

Thanks Aunt Casey and Uncle Andrew

Aunt Casey and Uncle Andrew got the kids scooters. They were super excited and have already scooted around the block a bunch of times. I know, I know, I need to get DCG a helmet. We are working on it. Yay for the good weather today, boo for the rain that is coming.

Coloring Easter Eggs












Dress Up Day

We sent the kids to daycare a few days during spring break. I had to go back to work and TTG had a ton of yard work to do. One day at the daycare was costume day. Both kids were excited to get out their Halloween costumes and wear them again. TPG wore his Spiderman outfit which is just a tad bit too small. He did not care and wore it anyway. DCG wore her dragon costume again and growled most of the day.
