Enjoying spring time!

We love this warmer weather where we can get outside and blow the stink off. There is nothing better than playing outside all day. Josh loves to be outside so much that we can barely get him back in the house - even for food.

Who doesn't love this cute boy?

While Matt was pressure washing the deck and house Josh was having a grand time playing in the mist.


On Saturday night after dinner we all finger painted. Of course, Josh was covered, but that's all part of it. We all had a lot of fun!

Gooey Smooshy Fun


As I was getting ready for church on Sunday Josh was playing, but when I came out of the bathroom I found him laying on the couch under the blanket reading a book. To cute!
Today Josh spent the entire day with grandma and grandpa. He was spoiled all day and exhausted by the time he came home. Unfortunately, I have been sick again and it was nice to have a day to chill out and not chase him around. Thanks mom and dad, I love you guys!
Matt, Jenny and Josh

Boys will be boys

Did you know that having the flu really stinks? Both Matt and I have been sick with the flu for the past week. It's been six days since we started getting sick and we still aren't 100%. Thankfully, Josh has not come down with the flu.

The weather has been terrific the past four days or so. We have been playing outside a lot. Josh had an awesome time going around the yard filling his wagon with his "yard discoveries" the other day. He was even a big help cleaning up the yard. Unfortunately, it is supposed to get cold again starting tomorrow. I really want winter to end sooner than later.

As everyone knows we made the switch to Daylight savings time on Sunday. It has really messed with Josh's sleeping schedule and he is definitely out of sorts. Hopefully it won't be to long before he has recovered.


This is a picture of Josh's mystery bruise. We don't know where it came from but Josh had a huge bruise on his cheek.


Josh is wearing Matt's SCBA that he brough home for his HazMat class. Josh thought he was pretty hot stuff wearing it.


What happens when you eat a warm fresh chocolate chip cookie? You get a chocolate covered kid, of course.


Nice warm day = Gettin' the big wheel out



Josh's yard discoveries


So while Josh was trying to nap we heard him playing with his art easel. We wondered what he was doing, but decide to let him be to see if he would sleep. Well, when we set him free (by the way he never did sleep) there was dry erase maker on the wall and all over Josh. Sometimes it is really hard to discipline and not to laugh at the same time.


He wrote all over his legs and even the bottom of his feet.

What has Matt been doing in his HazMat class? Playing dress up in funny looking suits.

Holiday World Update = In June my sister and her fam and the three of us are going to Holiday World. Josh must be 36 inches to ride the rides. On his 2nd birthday he was 34 1/4 inches tall. Since then he has not grown at all!! We're not even sure that three pairs of socks and tennis shoes will make up the difference in height. He had better grow some between now and then
