Nestle

Nestle is hands down the sweetest, smartest, and most patient dog I have ever met. She lets those crazy boys do just about anything to her, and she adores them as much as they adore her (most of the time). She will be 9 years old this September and is slowing down a good bit, but she still loves to be around the boys and watch what they are doing/getting into to. Sometimes I think she must consider them her babies. I mean, come on, what other dog would let a toddler try to saw off their head?? ;o)

Crabbie

Meet Crabbie. He is our "new to us" sandbox that I inherited from another twin Mommy. Crabbie wasn't red when he decided to join our family...he was more of a sun bleached white/pink. A can of red plastic spray paint helped Crabbie to feel like a new crab and right at home. The boys LOVE Crabbie, and especially love pulling their slide over to Crabbie and sliding down into the sand. We also fight over not having the same toys in Crabbie...never a dull moment, but for the most part, Crabbie brings the munchkins lots of laughs and fun times!

Boys.

My boys are really starting to act like....well, boys. The LOVE to wrestle, hit the baseball, play football, kick the soccer ball, and now their favorite thing to do is play with water guns. They will spray anything and everything....especially their Mommy! Nestle is favorite also...

Family Pictures

We had family pictures taken the other day, and afterwards we decided to take some of our own using our phones. They aren't the greatest, but I loved the exposed brick and old wood. I can't wait to see her photographs, but here are ours for now!

Sweet boys...

Some fun pictures of these silly boys...

Here Comes Peter Cottontail...

The Easter bunny came to our house!! He left a trail of jellybeans from Coleman and Carter's bedroom to their Easter baskets. He also left them pirate telescopes, bandanas, and treasure maps! Coleman and Carter were so excited that they slept in their bandanas, and held their telescopes and maps. We've been hunting for treasure all week....I sure hope they find some! That afternoon, we had both of our families over for lunch and had another Easter egg hunt for Coleman, Carter, and R.T.

Professional Egg Hunters...

Okay, so this was our last Easter egg hunt. It was at a church down the street and it was HUGE. Jared's brother, Daniel, was in town and was able to take part in the crazy festivities. There were tons of eggs, so the boys filled their baskets and then told us they were done. Ha! I'm pretty sure they are going to be confused next month when there are no more parties, holidays, or presents! Saturday afternoon, Jared's parents came in town and we also went to the Easter service at our church. I figured it was easier to get the munchkins dressed and ready for an afternoon service than letting them see their Easter baskets and forcing them into the car on Easter morning.
