April showers and Easter Bunnies

Sammie and Buzz Lightyear

a little milk (or as the kids say "Mouty") and cartoons

Hugs for sister

the fun of potty training outside, he wanted to put his boots on before his pants! Ha!

But truthfully, Caden has been doing sooooo good with potty training. We started a few weeks ago and are getting close to almost totally trained. Maybe one accident a week.

Gigi and Sammie

Sammie has a fear of loud noises, especially the lawn mower. She was ok sitting on Dad's lap, but hates when the mower is turned on and appears that it is coming towards her! Too funny!

jumping on the couch

(reminds me of when I was little, we did this all the time)

Easter egg hunt in our neighborhood

not sure where this is, but I always love to see pics with Mark and Sammie holding hands...so cute, she loves her Daddy

What a change from last year! The kids couldn't get enough of the Easter bunny this year...or was it the eggs filled with candy...hmmm.

Buzz was taking a turn going pee pee on the potty

Playing with dinosaurs in the sand box at school.

Note the little "mountains/rocks" in the sandbox...they are packing corners, so clever.

Lining up outside the school after recess. Caden and all the girls, there is only one other boy in his class.

On our last visit up to see my parents the kids (mostly Caden) were so interested in what baby Natalie was doing. They just love her!

We took a field trip to the Cleveland Children's museum and the kids had so much fun! What a cool place for them to run around and explore.

Sammie and Charlie

After watching Aladdin, the kids wanted to dress up like a Prince (or princess as Joey kept saying), so Papa and Gigi got them decked out in capes (aprons/scarves) and crowns made of Popoids. Hilarious!
