It was nice to go to Church today with 4 behaving kids! and sleeping in of course! I love Easter and Spring! We have dinner w/ Derek's sisters in an hour, so I may post more!

Hogle Zoo trip

Derek took the day off because the kids were having Spring Break and we thought it would be fun to do the Zoo! It was a lot of fun, especially with Audrey! Its always so much fun seeing the world through the little ones eyes! My boys are getting "too cool" for most of the Zoo we realized! it was still a nice 60 degree day! followed by a date night! Today everyone is helping clear out the 3rd car garage and then we will go to the movie Rio! Spring Cleaning here we come!

April is here! A party and a broken arm!

So at the closing of my last post, I asked "this makes me wonder, what is next?" well it was a broken arm... for Kate! At least her birthday was over with (by a week..) The weather was so nice on Saturday she was out on her scooter and hit a big bump, flipped and broke her left elbow!! She broke her right arm 2 1/2 years ago. She is my milk drinker too! I gonna go out on a limb and admit she is not the most "Coordinated!" This is Audrey telling me her arm is broken too...;) she is so cute!
We had 2 of Derek's sisters and their families over for Sunday Dinner, and celebrated some March and April Birthdays (there are a lot!) We even celebrated for a nephew in Texas and Grandma still in Laos! Yes Kate's arm was technically broken here, we waited a little to make sure, and it just kept swelling!
Kira's beautiful, and yummy cake! Now that I have Gestational Diabetes, it was a my last taste of sugar until baby is here!
Still trying to get a smile out of Audrey! She won't do it for the camera lately!
Here she is! A full arm cast! She cannot wait for school today to "show it off" of course! She is bringing a sharpie to school for signatures! What this really means is....1. no spring dance recital, money wasted :( 2. Staying off her bike and scooter while her friends play out in the beautiful spring weather 3. no hot tub! and 4. Mom having to help with potty, teeth getting dressed and baths! She gets it off in May.
Audrey and her cousin Jordan! She wasn't quite so sure what to think! **sidenote: This is the swing our baby boy will be using, I am not buying a new one again! We spent a lot on this for Audrey! Oh well!!
My new niece Jordan 3 1/2 months! Isn't she darling!?!? I have a newer one than her, Macy she is in San Diego! I will meet her in July...
Cutie pie!
My nieces Brenna almost six and Kylie just bearly 9. So cute!
