March of Dimes 2010

Today we participated in the March of Dimes Walk held at Pioneer Park. Billings Clinic NICU put a team together and I thought it would be fun to do this year. The weather could not have been better, it was beautiful outside. I took all the boys, loaded the stroller and we were off. My friend, Angelina and her little girl, Bella, also walked. It was a really good time, and for such a good cause. Most of you all know - I love babies! Afterward, they had lunch for all who participated, a bouncy house for the kids, cotton candy, snow cones...it was just a fun experience. Angelina even scored a sweatshirt for us. Here are some pictures.

Hunter loves the slide!

We have had some beautiful weather this past week. So much so that we had a picnic and turned the hose on! It was just nice to get outside and get some fresh air. The kids enjoyed being out of the house and just playing. I look forward to more days like this!

Hunter is a kick in the pants.

My little Hunter is almost two and is a HANDFUL! But, gosh I sure do love him. He is busy and keeps me on my toes all day long. I feel like I am guarding the toilet, garbage and stairs all day long. But he makes up for it, by bringing multiple smiles a day to my face.

Looking so grown up

Bath time fun.

Here is an update on Hunter Paul:

His vocabulary has tripled in the past few weeks. He is a little talker - don't know where he got that from. He loves to gives hugs and kisses. He LOVES candy, and is always trying to sneak a piece of something in his little mouth. He likes to play outside and taste rocks - I know gross, but it never fails, he just has to lick one or two. He's a fan of the Bee Movie, we've watched it more times than I care to admit. He likes to wear his big brothers shirts and wobble around in his shoes too. He loves his "bro bro" that is what he calls Walker. He is loving towards Colter and always points out Colter's eyes when he gets close...."don't poke him, Hunt" is a familiar phrase around here. He likes to be read to and loves to sing songs. I feel so blessed to be his Mom.

Colter 3 Months Old

I can't believe it! Time is just flying by! Colter is 3 months old and is just growing like a mad man. Here is a little update:

• Sleeps ALL night from 7pm to 7am
• Likes to be swaddled for bedtime
  
• Still nursing about every 4 hours during the day, keep it up buddy!
  
• Like his "bouncy chair" will sit and kick and laugh
• Smiles when he makes eye contact with just about anyone
• LOVES bath time, he tells me all about it.
• He is 11lbs 14oz and 23 inches
• Colter is the perfect addition to our family, we LOVE him so much!

Easter Weekend

We had a great Easter!! On Friday, I finished up a little shopping for the kids easter baskets. Walker and I worked on his memory verse for Easter Sunday. The kids are singing and reciting some scripture. Should be great fun to listen to. We dyed some easter eggs - that is always fun!

Freezing at the park, but all smiles for the most part.

Saturday, we got an early start on the morning, we were planning to go to an Easter Egg hunt put on by one of the local churches. It started to rain as I was loading the kids in the car, but my friend Angelina and I decided we would brave the weather and head out. Well once we got there and after it started to pour, we changed out minds. The kids weren't too disappointed, they were freezing. Little fingers were cold and noses were running. We took them all out to lunch and ended up having a great time.



Easter Sunday, the boys opened there Easter basket's (that was super fun) and we made it to church! It is so much work to get them all ready and in the car and to church on time, but we did it! The service was wonderful and I'm so thankful for such a great church! We had dinner at my parent's house and it was delish! Mom is such a GREAT cook! It was nice to just relax. The kids and I headed home after lunch and we all took a three hour nap! It was heaven! All in all it was a great weekend!
