April showers

 Mia has taken off running! She likes to play peek a boo!

 Might be the age or the personality, but Alison is definitely our arts and crafts go getter.  She will paint, glue, assemble, disassemble, reassemble almost any project!  After Easter, all she wanted to do was keep coloring and painting eggs! :)

 We love yogurtini...we now save up for this as a special treat! ;)

 Mia doesn't quite have the attention span yet for artsy projects, but she loves to wrestle and throw balls and be on her riding toys and run run run....as aforementioned.

 Mia likes our laps for a comfy seat.

 And she is also a fantastic hider of things.  Sometimes where you can see them, sometimes not.

Alison turned 3 in April!

 She was very excited to receive a prezzie in the mail from Auntie Corrine, Ky and Kosse!

 She likes to take pictures and this is one of hers....

 As is this one...

 and...

 We baked a cake to take to share with Alison's friends at school.... (more of Alison's photography)

 The party was Little Einsteins themed

 Playing dress-up

 Party fun inside as the day was somewhat chilly and a little rainy

 Pin the antenna on rocket

 Mowing grass with bubbles can be fun!

 Alison now has a twin bed!

 3 year stats: 38 " tall (73%), 30.6 pounds (50%)  We are so proud of our Alison!  She talks and sings and dances all the time now!  So much fun!

A lot of catching up to do!

We are going to have a series of moments in time.  How about we start back where we left off?  The rest of March....Let's begin the story with, oh yeah, I was pregnant! :)

 Alison looking cute and riding in style

 I decided to take the girls along with me to one of my ob appointments.  Alison loves to shower Mia with hugs.  And she constantly would get told to not hug her around her neck!

 We stayed the night at Uncle Luke's and Aunt Amber's before Scott and Carrie's wedding.  These pics tell of some of the fun Alison gets to experience with Levi and Milo showing the way.

 So cool, but of course blurry...not time to focus the camera, Milo's on the move ;)

 We had to wait a little while for our food and Mia was not in the mood. 

 She enjoyed getting to hang out with Grandpa

 The day was dreary and there was a snowstorm to drive home in.  Stress and a spin later, we all made it home!

 Crawling like cats or at least I think that was what was going on.

 He he.  Mia is so much fun.  And Daddy giving horsey back rides....

 Flurry turned 4 in March!

 Easter was fun even though Mia doesn't always want to pose for the camera. She would much rather be the one playing with the phone.

 Cheese!

We hope you enjoyed March and springtime!  More months in review to come!  After all, I only have 8 months to post to be able to catch up.  Fun to start though and try to keep in touch!

Amelia's starting walking adventures!

Some of our favorites...Fall and Winter catch up

 From the Renaissance Festival...

 Anyone ready for a kiss?

 Mia asleep for the night on her 8 month day...I realized that it was the 19th that day and snuck a pic :)

 Grain Valley fair days...kinda blurry and at the end of the slide but you get the idea...weeee!

 Walking at the zoo...

 Mia's 7 month day

 Alison's hugs are sometimes more like tackles

 Penguins for Halloween.  Unfortunately, Mia wasn't feeling well during Halloween time and I am not sure I captured any penguin or pumpkin pics of Mia.  She was cute in both for sure!

 Alison is ready to go!  Mia's 9 months...

 Alison trying out Milo's sleeping bag at Levi's bday party

 And his helmet...after all, it kind of matches her shirt.

 Mia's 10 months

 Happy Thanksgiving!

 Smile with the pumpkins!  ;)
