Bath Towel

Kaitlyn just got out of the tub and she was so cute I had to take a couple of pictures!

Today is Ethan's 8th birthday. The whole family picked him up at school and took him to lunch. He chose A&W. (He had never been there before, but a friend had talked it up and he was excited to try it.) After Christian got home, he opened presents.

He is very excited about his new mountain bike.

Then we ate dinner (chicken piccata and green beans), and dessert (lemon cake and Snickers ice cream), and now he and Aidan are playing Lego Star Wars on the Wii.

Fun birthday!

Easter Day

The Easter bunny came this morning. Yay!

We also dyed eggs today, and after church, we took turns hiding them around the house and finding them. We didn't take any pictures of that.

Ethan had his interview with the bishop today, in preparation for his baptism.

For dinner, we ate sausage/cheese/egg casserole.

We also discussed the true meaning of Easter with the boys.

It's been a great day!

Kaitlyn's Easter Dress

I tried to take numerous pictures of Kaitlyn wearing her Easter dress today, but I could only get two types of pictures - her crying, or her eating Kix. She just wasn't happy today. These were the best two. In the first one, you have a great shot of her lower teeth.

Walking With a Little Help

Kaitlyn is so close to walking. She has taken one step, two different times, all by herself. And she really likes this toy:

Double Birthday Party

To make things a little easier on myself, I decided to do a birthday party for both boys at the same time. Ethan invited his two best friends, Gabe and Logan, and Aidan invited three people - Madelyn, Ashley and Eric (yes, that's two girls and a boy).

I filled a bunch of plastic eggs with candy and hid half of them inside, half of them outside. They had a blast looking for all of the eggs.

Then the boys opened presents. This is Ethan's best friend, Gabe. He is a week and a half older than Ethan (as you can tell, Ethan is just a little bit taller than him). They will both be baptized this weekend!

This is Aidan's best friend, Madelyn. I told them to say cheese and Madelyn pulled this pose. Such a cutie!

Then they all decorated cupcakes (no pictures, I was too busy helping them) and then time was up! Fun was had by all.

Soccer

Aidan decided he wanted to do soccer again this year. He is loving it!

Aidan's Birthday

Aidan's birthday was on the 14th. He got golf clubs (which he was so excited about). He keeps calling himself Tiger Squirrel Aidan Wimmer. Tiger, because he wants to be the next Tiger Woods. Squirrel, because when you ask him what he wants to be when he grows up, he replies, "A squirrel."
