Easter

Here are a few pics from our Easter weekend. It was a great one and it was so much fund for the boys to be old enough to kind of understand it. They absolutely loved hunting for easter eggs and they loved all the presents and candy they got.

Easter Morning, finding their baskets!
Taylor had stretchy lizards in his eggs. They love them and do the lizard tongue all day long.

Josh found one!

My handsome boys!!

Its pretty good we got them both looking at the camera. We consider that success when they are both in the shot. Both smiling is extremely rare. They were much easier to take pictures of when they werent mobile.

It was a great weekend. We spent lots of time with family and it was great to see everyone. They boys are growing up way to fast. They are both crazy all over the place and they are starting to say more and more words every day. The last few weeks has been rough, both of them have had RSV. Josh has to get tubes put in his ears next week and possibly his annoids(not sure how to spell) removed. So, if we can just get through that maybe we can breathe.

Last Minute Trip

Last weekend we decided last minute to take a trip down to St. George and Vegas. I was in desperate need to have a change of pace, plus we all needed a little sunshine. It was so nice to be able to go out side and not bundle everyone up in coats and hats. We could actually go for walks and play in the park. It was so much fun, I really didnt want to come home.

We spent one day in vegas just hanging out. We went to the Mirage Secret Garden. They have white tigers and lions and dolphins. My boys LOVE animals so the were in heaven. They spent probably 45 minutes just watching the dolphins. The lions and tigers didnt thrill them as much because they couldnt see them very well.

Josh is trying to unbluckle Taylor. They are very good at team work.

Looking at the dolphins

Josh playing at the park

You can tell they loved this dinosaur. They barley stayed on long enough for the pic.

This was their favorite thing at the park. They love balls. It was one of the first words they signed and now they mostly just say it.

This is Taylor making the dolphin noise. When you see him putting his had in the air he is signing fish.

Having fun at home

Our boys love to dance but it seems Taylor is the one who wanted to perform for the camera

It's fun to see when something finally clicked in my brain

Our 1st birthday

We love our birthday cake.

We had to have a Mickey Mouse birthday

Update

We havent updated in awhile. Things have been a little crazy around here to say the least. The boys have been so sick. Josh was in the hospital once last week getting IV therapy. He has had a temp of 104 + all week and we havent really been able to break the fever. He also has been puking his guts out. You know your in bad shape when the doctor tells you that he will keep you child in his prayers and thats about all he can do. After 6 full days of being dealthy ill and the doctors ready to take him into more testing he finally turned around and is doing much better. He is actually moving now and eating. Taylor has just had a horrible cold and they are both still struggling with that.

We did go and get pics for there 1 year birthday. We cant believe our babies are almost one. We never thought we would see the day.

I will post more pics soon of their 1st birthday!!

Going Private

I know its a pain for everyone but I am a little freaked out with every thing that has been on the news about blogging. We dont want to stop because this is how we keep in touch with a lot of you. So we decided to go private. If you still would like to view our blog we would love to hear from you. Please just leave your email address in the comment box and I will send you and email. Sorry again, I know its one more step. Hope all is well!!

Halloween 2008

I know I am a little tardy in posting this but all of the pics were on Lonnies computer and it has been down for a few days. If you cant tell from the pictures Lonnie was Dr Suess, I was Cat in the Hat and the boys well they are pretty self explanatory. We went to my moms for a big party as usual. We had dinner, had a costume contest and played games. We had a great Halloween. Thanks mom (even though she will never read this, she has absolutely no idea what a blog even is!!)
