Happy Easter

We hope everyone had a Happy Easter.

We died eggs on Saturday.


Amelia loved it.

Hayden did too.

On Sunday Hayden woke up first and didn't even go looking for his basket.  He went straight to the Ipad.  He is addicted.  Ha ha.
 

After a few minutes he did go looking for his basket and was super excited to see that there was a new scooter with it.  I found the razor scooters at a kmart that was going out of business.  I got them for a few bucks!
 

He enjoyed opening the rest of his basket and immediately ate his reese cup egg.


Amelia woke up a little later and Hayden was excited to show her what the Easter bunny brought her.  She loved everything and kept oohing and ahhing.  Her helmet (another kmart find for a few bucks) is a little big but she will grow into it.

After baskets and breakfast we go the kids dressed for church.  Hayden took the tie off right after the pictures.


Amelia loves her Easter hat.
 


We had dinner at my sisters house where Grandma Barb spoiled the kids.  They love it though.  Hayden loves playing with his cousins there and Amelia is always content and happy. Overall a nice day for everyone. 

Is is spring?

It is March and officially spring but we keep getting snow.  It has been cold everyday. April is only a few days away and we hope it will be warm. Hayden has loved playing in it.  He helps shovel the drive way and will play for long periods of time.  He loves sled riding his year too.

Amelia is 2

 
Amelia is 2 years old today.  Here are a ton of fun facts about Amelia:

loves anything pretty and princess like (she calls all princesses "rella" for cinderella)

obsessed with dora and fresh beats

 loves her new kitchen.  she loves to make food and feeds it to her babies or us

always has her 2 blankets and her baby doll

is always telling everyone "no".  then smiles and thinks she is cute


scares easy. dogs barking, loud sudden noises and she comes running saying hold me

has the fake cry down to a science

picks fights with hayden

loves most fruits.  strawberries bananas grapes melons

constantly going in the fridge.  Its annoying

Likes to go get different outfits to wear thru out the day.  Same with shoes.

picks out her own pajamas every night

Still likes to have several different cereals mixed.


Talking more and more. But refuses to say Hayden's name.  I mean refuses.  She used to say it.

Her crib mattress is on the floor since she could climb out.  I am not ready to fight her to stay in a big girl bed.

Is a monkey just like Hayden and loves to climb things.

Also likes to just randomly dump toys like Hayden used to.

Enjoys drawing but doesn't just confine her drawing to paper.  She will draw on walls, toys, etc. if you don't pay attention.

Likes to tug on her belly button. ITs an outy like mine and hayden's  She thinks its funny.

Got rid of her high chair and booster seat a long time ago.  She wanted nothing to do with them and wants to sit in the big chairs when at home.

As soon as we get to Grandma Barb's she thinks she immediately has to eat.  She goes right over to the table and sits and waits and asks for food.  she also immediately looks for cookies

Likes putting money in her piggy bank.

Asks for her minnie mouse plate every meal.

Is already in competition with hayden.  She wants everything she has.  Everything has to be even

She is the grossest eater.  I  already showed you how she mixes her food together.  She also sucks butter off of toast, cream cheese off bagels etc.  She basically eats things like that from the top down and it sure makes a mess.

Loves pop/soda

Lives when daddy comes home

Has a horrible high pitch scream

Loves lollipops aNd other sweets Hayden never liked

Has this cheesy smile she does

overall is a happy little girl but she has a huge temper
.
