Catch up of phone pics

I took the kids to the mall to visit the Easter Bunny last week. It was great...we went on a Thursday and it was empty! ....no line! Here they are taking a second look from above.
Playing in the water in the sink...what a good big brother!
Yes....Max made it into the bed...this is only for a few minutes each night while we read before sleeping...he is a LONG way from earning the whole night with us!
Family dinner out......and a great dessert!
Well....it happened....we had our first trip to the ER with Kyle. We knew it would happen eventually...but we always assumed it would be a broken bone of some type. Poor Kyle, his asthma got out of control and we used all of the medicine and nebulizer treatments we had at home. His doctor said we needed to go to the ER! He did a good job. The medicine worked and we were able to go home that day. The pics below are in reverse order. Kyle's favorite parts were the popsicle and the fact that he didn't have to get a shot!


Kyle calls this game "tackle Max"

This is Max's residence at night

I took Max to the vet in the car..he made himself at home in Kyle's car seat

Video of Egg hunt and silly days with Max


Big girl with a real pen Our local Easter Egg hunt. AWWWWW sweet! They are waiting patiently for the horn to sound to go get the eggs! She had a blast!

Checking in on the candy
Kyle had his face painted for the first time....I have a lot of pictures of each stage....here are the beginning and end


He LOVED it!
The kids and I had looked forward to having a picnic on one of the nicer of the spring days. We went to church for our Bible study and it was POURING when we got home...so we tried to make the best of it! We had fun...we did end up moving it to the kitchen table about 15 min into the picnic....Max was a bit too excited to keep himself from joining us on the human food!
Trying for a cute posed picture. Elizabeth is really getting a cute little girl personality. It is so much fun to watch her become her own little person!
Watching Kyle in today's T-ball game....it was COLD!!!!!!!



My boys! Kyle LOVES when Daddy is home to spend some time together!
Hugs for Max!

T-ball and more fun with Max

Kyle had his first T-ball practice this past Saturday. He LOVED it! It was so much fun to watch him really play like a boy...and Dave had just as much fun coaching! This is actually the end of the practice with the group saying...Gooooo pirates! Running the bases
Spectator sister
The kids took turns batting off of the tee...and the rest of the kids just waited for the ball to come to them!


First at bat
Notice Daddy making a few coaching tips to his superstar!
Prior to the game....who looks more excited????
Below are a multitude of pictures of the kids with Max.....pulling his ears, his tail, lying on top of him, chasing him...running from him...basically just having fun...and hopefully bonding!
Max trying to take a break?????









Phillies day at school....I really wish this picture had not come out blurry.....would have been really cute.....maybe a new camera is being added to our list???
Max's first night home...we let Kyle stay up to meet his new little bro





Sitting in the "big girl" chair and getting a yumy treat....Twizzlers. Don't tell her they are from Halloween!
Sleepy family
This will go down in the books as Kyle's 4 year old face. This is obviously staged..but pretty close to the real thing. He makes this face when trying to be silly or pull something over on us!
