HAPPY BIRTHDAY EMMETT. It has been a great year. No lie. Better then the year before and better then the year before that. Ever year is better then the last. I have a full life! We are all very glad Emmett is in our family. Taylor, Cameron, and Mason want Emmett's attention. He is the most fought over toy in the house.

Emmett has the most patience of us all, too. Yes my one year old waits his turn. Emmett is amazing. He is smart too. he only needs to see it once to remember it. He does the hand signs for pop corn popping and paddy cake. He is not walking yet, but he can climb up tv cabinets and desks. He gets his toes on the routed out groove in the doors and his fingers on the top. Then climbs up anything he wants!

I could go on and on about him and how much he is in our hearts. BUT I really am adding this post to invite you to his first birthday party at our house, next Saturday night, April 24th at 5:00. Anyone can come. Please rsvp so I will know.

Easter


The week before Easter all the snow had melted in Woodruff and we were all loving the warm weather. The boys were outside shoeless and playing with the squirt guns. We had a mild winter so far and I thought for sure spring was here to stay. So for Easter weekend we decided to stay in Woodruff and have a Easter Egg Hunt up at the playground. Then ...


So we moved the Hunt inside and they all had a blast, and found lots and lots of eggs. This is Conrad our neighbor that likes to bear crawl when his knees have had enough. I thought is was so cute I had to take a picture. He and Emmett are 5 days apart in age.




Fun Weekend in Osino

We took a trip to Stephanie and Ethan's. It was a lots of fun. The two old boys went snowboarding the first day and then took the younger 5 boys the next day. Here is a picture of the 5 younger boys at the end of their big snowboarding/sledding day. A big THANK YOU goes out to Ethan and Stephanie for treating us to such a great weekend.
