Update

Here is a little of what we have been up to the last few weeks...

The kid are growing and changing so fast...
Kaylie loves to pose for the camera...


Landon is getting so big...


Cuddling after nap time...



We went to Lafayette to visit with our friend's the Falda's. The kids had a blast together and we really enjoyed catching up with them. We wish we could get together more often.



Kaylie had her St. Patrick's day party at school. Her teacher is great and always does fun things with them. I didn't have a camera at school but they made cute hats, rainbow cupcakes with whip cream for the clouds, and did several activites.


Kaylie is still doing gymnastics and swimming and loves them both. Landon is a great brother and sits patiently while sissy does her classes. Soon he will be able to join in the fun.



We had spring break this week so we have tried to do some fun activities.
We made Easter baskets...



We decorated a bunny's house....



We went to the Columbus Children's Museum...







Last weekend I went to Chicago with a friend from high school to meet up with my friend from Elementary school. We had a great girls weekend full of shopping,eating yummy food, and girl talk. We were also able to meet Elizabeth's sweet baby girl Courtney. It was fun to play with her and bring her shopping. :)




The flowers are blooming and we are ready for the spring weather to stay! :)

Bowling

We took the kids bowling again on Friday night. They love bowling. It was so cute to watch because they BOTH held their own ball and carried it up to the alley and threw it. I couldn't believe Landon especially was big enough for that. Where did my babies go? I told Jeremy that they are at such fun ages. I just want to freeze time. We are having so much fun with them and they are such good buddies.

Museum and baby

This weekend Jeremy and I took the kids to the Children's Museum. It was a lot of fun and we really enjoyed our visit. Landon has been wanting to visit the new Bob the Builder exibit so we did that. We took Kaylie to see the new Barbie exibit a few months ago. We also visited the planetarium. Big Bird and Elmo gave the tour of the stars so the kids thought that was really neat.














Kaylie adores her daddy and her daddy adores her, therefore he will do whatever she asks. So this is how they walked through downtown Indy on the way to the restaurant. So cute! :)


We also went to visit baby Caitlin. She came home on Friday. The kids were so excited to hold her. Kaylie loved playing mommy and holding her. Landon really wanted to hold her but I was not sure how he would react since it was the first baby he had held. He did great and loved it. He would have held her all day if we let him.



I am trying to get a video of Landon counting to 20 and saying his ABC's but he won't do it for the camera. He is quite the jabber box and will sing or talk for you all day.

Kaylie has started gymnastics and is still doing swimming. She will hopefully have a full week of school this week for the first time in a month! She loves to tell stories and is very big into make believe right now, which is fun. Luckily Landon plays right with her, which is really fun to watch then play and interact together.

Snow snow and more snow...

Well it has been snowing and snowing and snowing some more here. Kaylie has missed a lot of school lately, we have shoveled a lot, and staying inside our house a lot. Needless to say we have had to be creative and come up with fun things to do around the house. We had about 11 inches in 2 days last week and we are getting about 6 today with more to come until Wed. Needless to say we are ready for spring and the sunshine. :)

The kids have enjoyed playing out in the snow and painting the snow...





It has been nice to enjoy quality time with just the kids. The have become good friends and enjoy playing together. I love listening to them interact with each other and come up with creative things to play.
Kaylie loves reading Landon his nap time stories and he loves it as well. He sits on her lap and listens to her.

Dancing with the new clothes I got them..


We made Valentine's Cookies and the kids had a blast helping. I gave them each a bowl.
This was before we started...


And here is what happens when you give a 2 year old a bowl with flour. It was fun! :)


Daddy was very sweet and sent us all a special treat for Valentine's Day.
The kids got balloons...


and I got beautiful flowers...


Since we have been snowed in so much, we needed another form of entertainment so my friend and I took our kids bowling last week. The kids had a great time. They really enjoyed it.
