Two Little Monkeys Not Jumping on the Bed

Somehow the two of you ended up in bed with me last night.  When I got up to take a shower, you both were completely happy to just stay in bed as long as you could!

Another Superb Day

Today was magical.  We all ran around the house this morning in our superhero capes and killed monsters.  Then, still in our superhero capes, we went for a walk to what I like to call the secret bridge.  Eames and Ella came over in the afternoon and we eventually moved the party back outside after baking some chocolate chip cookies.   You were very unsure as to why I was carrying Ella around and then you were very concerned about her playing with your toys.  I think you warmed up to the idea after a bit though.

Marnie did a watercolor of one of our tulips...after dumping the treasures you or your brother stored there. 

 

 

 

First Saturday of Spring

We lucked out today.  It's the first Saturday of Spring and the cherry blossoms are in full bloom at the Capitol.  The three of us walked down to take a look.  Everything is just beautiful right now!  Afterwards we stopped at Safeway so you and Dylan could each get a cookie. 

We also stopped at the softball field and checked out the Canada geese that have been hanging out there.  You didn't appear to be too impressed by the birds.  Later in the day, after you got up from your nap, it was still nice and we played out in the yard.

Make the Ordinary Come Alive

This has honestly been my goal for both of you boys from day one!  I just was never able to put it into such eloquent words.
