Don't We Get A Dress Rehearsal?

We had a wonderful Easter this year, especially with Micah as he is fully aware of these characters who come and leave gifts throughout the year. This year the Easter Bunny left a trail of eggs in the hallway leading up to a candy filled Easter basket (I cringe thinking of the next dentist visit!).  Matt and I loved hearing his little feet run through the hall and then to hear him gasp each time he found an egg was too cute!   We recently became members of a new church and decided to go to mass there (we usually drive across town to our old church to go to special holiday masses with mom and dad). After mass we headed to Mom and Dad's and had an AMAZING feast! Micah was bouncing off the walls with the amount of candy he had eaten, and once again, Mom out did herself with the kids' baskets she made. Here are a few pictures! 

I LOVE gardening... veggies, flowers WHATEVER! But sometimes it doesn't love me, so I have been trying out different items to see what best fits in this Arizona heat and in my own garden! We recently got a watermelon kit (for Micah) from our cousins Alexis and her daughters, so we decided to try it out! Ill keep you posted on how they do, but to my understanding they are VERY "viney" and take up tons of room, so we will see how long this one lasts. We also just planted an assortment of flowers as well as sugar snap peas, tomatoes and bell peppers. Here's to turning my yellow thumb a vibrant green!

That’s right we are now back on the map since the 2011 T.I.G. has ended! So what’s new? Here are a few things: Kapri: Who is 7 months already… Since February she has learned to sit up and crawl and since last week she is now able to grab and stand!! She is a mover and shaker and what I like to call a “roller coaster” baby. She loves to be (lightly) tossed in the air, hang upside down on Daddy’s arms and loves, loves when Micah startles’ her. She is eating all kinds of baby food and has since been blessed with a little bottom tooth! She is NOTHING like her brother size wise… she is still wearing 3 month clothes!! She is my little peanut and is the most amazing little bitty. Micah: Still 3… going on 10… As he gets older in the 3 year old department he has mastered the skill of negotiation, and loves to see how far he can get away with things. He is learning something new every day, and just loves all over Kapri every chance he gets. I couldn’t have been blessed with a better bigger bro
