I Found One Mommy!

Somer had her first Easter Egg hunt this year. Mom hid eggs in her flower bed and Somer when wild! It was the best, she had so much fun.

This was also Hudson's first Easter. We went to chruch on Saturday night and slept in Sunday. After cleaning all day, we headed to my mom's for dinner.

The Big 5-0

I am so excited!!! Blogger has been blocked at school and now its not!!!

We had Tom's 50th birthday party this weekend and I think we really got him. I thought for sure we wouldn't be able to pull off the surprise but we did! I had a really good time visiting with everyone and was really happy with how everything turned out. I'll try to get some pictures posted this week.

More Room in the Closet

Michael starts a new job tomorrow. After almost eight years, he worked his last day at Midwest Tire & Auto on Thursday. He really enjoyed working there and says he will miss seeing all the people, but it's time to move on. He starts with Schwada Builders tomorrow morning. We are really looking forward to having him off by 3:30 everday and not working Saturdays, but Mommy is really not looking forward to the early mornings since I will have to get the kids ready and to daycare by myself now. I can't believe how spoiled I have gotten!

He and I are also very excited that with no uniforms, we have lots more room in our closet and no more tire grease and grit to clean from the sink and bathtub!

Preparing for Easter

Elliot and Drake came over on Sunday to color Easter Eggs. It was a first for all the boys as Somer was the only one who had done it before. I think the kids had a really good time and we all certainly enjoyed getting to do it outside in the warm weather!

Hudson Feeds Himself

Hudson took a turn at feeding himself cereal. He sure had fun, but I'm not sure how much he actually ate!

Hudson is Growing Too Fast!

Hudson is 9 months old today. Wow how the time flies! I took him and Somer to Mary's studio last night for some Easter/9 month pictures and of course Somer was uncooperative and Hudson was cranky. It never fails. Hudson is the happiest baby I have ever met and everytime we walk into Mary's studio he is immediately cranky and Somer refused to smile good. She just gives us this big cheesy grin with her eyes all squinted shut! We didn't get any really great pictures of both kids together or of Somer alone, but we did manage to get a few really good ones of Hudson! I especially like the ones of him with the old camera!

Destined for the ER!

Hudson is getting really good at this standing business. The other morning I got up and found him standing in his crib and Somer standing on the outside talking to him. Saturday he pulled up and stood by the bath tub while I was drying my hair and I don't know what happened, but I heard a big thump and he was in it. I don't know if he was trying to crawl in or if he was reaching and lost his balance. I do know however he had a goose egg and slightly bloody nose. I am really starting to think he is going to be our accident baby.
