Our Family

A VISIT TO THE PARK!!!!!

We took the kids to a park in Dekalb this weekend in between thunderstorms. Kyra had a blast running around the playground. Hunter also enjoyed himself on the swings. We even took a walk to Missy and Pat's house to visit baby Connor!

HUNTER IS ON THE MOVE!!!

Hunter is on the move! He started creeping this week! He made it all the way into the kitchen. Unfortunately, he is drawn to Kyra's toys and she is not too happy about it!

PICTURES FROM EASTER

We had a wonderful Easter this year. We started with Kyra finding the Easter baskets that the Easter bunny left for her and Hunter. We also went to the sunlight service at church where Kyra participated in the children's sermon by singing Jesus Loves Me! She did great:) Church also hosted breakfast and an egg hunt. The Johnson family came over in the afternoon. We ate WAY too much food! The kids also enjoyed an Easter egg hunt. Overall, the day could not have been better!

Easter

We are busy getting ready for Easter. We are ready to make glitter Easter eggs and Easter cookies! Kyra is excited for Landry, Myranda & Kayden to come over for an Easter egg hunt, luckily the weather should cooperate. Kyra is going to participate in the Sunday school Easter program and sing Jesus Loves Me. Unfortunately she keeps asking who is Jesus! We have til Sunday to teach her!

On another note, Hunter turned 6 months old this week. He weighed in at 19lb 2oz and is 28" tall. He definately is not lacking in the weight department! He is starting to sit on his own! We think he is starting to get some teeth, because he has been unhappy the past couple days. He still adores Kyra and everything she does, hopefully that lasts for a long time.

It is early April and Spring is nowhere in sight! Both Kyra and Hunter came down with croup a few weeks ago and passed it onto me! Hunter will be 6 months in one week! Hard to believe how fast six months goes by. Hunter weighed 18lb 9oz at the doctors office! He will be baptized this weekend at our church.

Kyra is still taking swimming lessons with Grampsy. She can float by herself and is able to swim by herself for short periods! Her biggest accomplishment is sleeping through the night! (at the age of 3!)

We wish everyone a Happy Easter!

February Coming to a Close

Here are some new photos of the kids. Hunter will be 5 months soon! He definately is built like a butterball turkey! He LOVES to eat. He has found his voice and is very vocal, often competing with Kyra to see who can be more loud - Kyra always wins! Kyra is still taking swim lessons with Gramps. She now jumps in all by herself and is even starting to float by herself! We may sign her up for more lessons because she is doing so well!
