things we've been up to other than birthdays

sometimes dates are running errands and having shopping cart rides at lowes

 jude loved standing on a chair with the big kids

our new favorite pass time is popcorn and uno

 everyone loves playdough

 and dad

 so creative...and dangerous

spring break trip to the discovery center

 fishing day at the park

 a trip to the dentist

 twinning is winning

 a trip to the library

 trying on dresses at the store

 olive taught jude to swing

jude turned 18 months! he's so cute

 we loved seeing ryan's family on their way to house hunt in utah

 always reading

 stinker pants using my make up

 i love his quiet play

 7 mile run in the rain 

kind of miserable but better together

 i love that they still like to dress up

 cute dad making cotton candy for the kiddies

 sweet olive told me she wants to be a stay home mom

that sews dresses and does hair

 warming up on the vent with the door mat

 we love warm days

 cute eleanor

 such a diva

 early morning chicken feed run

 henry and jude are becoming such good friends! i love it!!

 henry can finally do perler beads without intentionally dumping them

 noah buried henry in the rocks

 michael and i ran to get a treat and crystal and dave were waiting in our driveway

so they helped us eat our treats

 olive had a super early dentist appointment so we went for donuts after and before school

 a check up for eleanor

 an 8 mile treadmill run

 henry loves chirp

 what a snoop! 

 playing before school 

i looked up and they made my heart swell so much

 the tulips are sooo pretty in the front yard 

jude loves the bubbles in nursery

video day at ballet

 i love it when noah mows

 we mowed laura's backyard and weeded for family home evening

 jude loves spaghetti

 another early morning dentist appointment so we had to get donuts again

 french braids for eleanor

 i sewed us matching nightgowns

 subway day with olive

  the blossoms are so pretty right now

 i love the hammock!

 cutest little sunglass boy

i love these pictures of jude

  we had to get jude's blood checked to see if he's anemic

because he eats so much dirt

he did so well

and isn't anemic but does need more iron rich foods

life is really good

i am glad the first birthday rush is over 

and spring is here! it makes me so happy!
