A birthday, the zoo and nice weather finally!

Two peas in a pod...

Caden is really loving his sister these days. He wants to help hold her and give her a bottle...pretty much everything.

We went up to visit my family March 19/20 weekend for Joey's 2nd birthday party. That Saturday we went to see the Celtic Women (feel free to make fun of Mark)
and had a great time! The seats were in the third row and were fantastic! Jen and Brian watched the kids while we were gone and here is a pic of Caden...seems to say "please take the picture Aunt Jenny, I am cold and my belly is big!"

Joe, Joey, and Amy with the Elmo cake (Amy made!)

off to the side are Emma Lasko and Caden sneaking a taste of the icing.

Joey and Amy, he is really growing up so fast!

The zoo came to Troy at Hobart Arena and we had to take Caden. He loved the elephant and camel as well as the mini horses.

Celebrating Mark's 31st bday! Man are we getting old or what!??!?

Caden is practicing blowing out the candles.

My parents have one of those talking fish and Caden fell in love with it! He just thought it was absolutely hilarious to hear it and watch it move. "Gimme that filet o fish"

Singing happy birthday to Joey!

Sammie talking at breakfast

And finally, Sammie sucking on her toe! This just cracks me up! Sometimes I can hear her on the monitor sucking on her toe. She is really growing up fast. She has learne to roll from front to back very well, and now she can move herself all around.
