March Madness

Well, its been a busy month. We have been crazy with weather here lately between beautiful days, rainy days and cold days. Lots of pictures to post to catch everyone up on what's been going on. Good news is that Gram is doing much better and her heart is great! The doctors think it may be a virus or a side effect of medication. We have been able to visit with some family and friends. We have had lots of March birthdays to celebrate: Don Don, Lindsey, Papa Burgess, Shelby, Sophia, Patrick, Ashley M., Behm (he's a leap year baby so he usually celebrates in March)Georgie and Grandmommy. So not only is it basketball March madness its birthday March madness too! We also would l ike to welcome William Tyler Pearson to the world adding another marvelous March birthday. I know I am probably leaving a bday or two out....Also found out some more amazing news that my friend Kate Kalnes from Chicago and her husband Dan are expecting....AWESOME! Enjoy the pictures! Joshua and MIllie are growing like crazy. We had Joshua's 3 year appointment and Millie's 18 month. Dr. C had all great news for their development. Millie is 100th % in height and 95th in weight (shocker I know). They are smarty pants and hilarious. So, in the car we have their children's cds and I have 1 for myself. It came on the other day and one of the songs is, "single ladies," by Beyonce. Well the babies LOVE this song. So much so that Joshua specifically requests, "single legs" as he calls it. If you listen to it, it does sound like she says legs instead of ladies. Just thought I would share. The things these little pumpkins come up with is hilarious.

#5 is Ronald Nored, one of the best young men around. He played for Tyler at Homewood and is such a great person. He plays @ Butler ( and for those of you who aren't into basketball (?) they are now playing in the Elite 8. We are so proud for Ronald! Joshua yells go Ronald at the tv and then MIllie goes and dunks a bball. I haven't gotten a picture of that but I will. This picture was taken after Butler upset #1 in the nation Syracuse! GO RONALD!!! (and your team)

Joshua watching from the couch when Rosey started warming up she like to "gently" paw at him. Josh is already training her to sit!Super Kris!!! The little ones check out some video on the phone with Uncle Kris a.k.a their playground.
Missy and Millie get some book time with a Dora easter book. This is one of Millie's favorite.
Joshua was moving a chair and it landed on his foot. It did hurt him but he didn't need a band-aid but we all know how wearing a band-aid makes the pain go away. Millie did nothing to hurt herself but also needed a band-aid on her foot which she is pointing out in the picture.
Kevin and Joshy digging for worms.
Millie and Daddy observing Joshua fishing @ star lake.
Joshua will fish forever so we finally had a nice day to take him fishing. He is an amazing caster.
They will be so mad at me later for this but they wanted to go swimming and it was too cute to pass up.
A little fishing practice in the yard and driveway with daddy.

SPRING BREAK

We have been enjoying our "break" because spring weather has not really shown itself yet. We have had a great time playing in the basement and jumping on the "jumpy thing" as Joshua calls it and the "jump, jump" as Millie calls it. Joshua got a new bicycle and loves it. We also got a battery for the tractor so they could ride it. It might be one of the funniest things I have ever seen to watch Joshua "drive/ride" this tractor. I have enjoyed every minute of being home with these amazing little babies!

Joshua goes forward or reverse and we never know which he is going to choose. It is hilarious.

Pile on daddy in the jumpy thing.
He chose to go forward.
A professional already.
Millie says hello outside the window of her house.
A very, very sweet moment.
Millie pretty much destroying Joshua's train set as he plays on it.
Ta-Da!
Always wear a helmet!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JOSHUA

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO JOSHY! We had a terrific birthday party for our big 3 YEAR OLD BABY BOY! We had a wonderful party with friends and family. Enjoy some pictures from the party. We also have wonderful news that Rob and Cathryn are expecting with a due date in early September, yippie!

I'M 3!!!!!!!

Make a Wish!

CHOO CHOO!

It's my party and I can eat this cookie if I want to.

Our Train cake, it became my obsession but had a great time making it.

Lots of fun to make. Once we wished Joshua happy birthday, he and his friend Moseley decided to eat every bit of candy on the top of those cakes. They were in 7th heaven since neither one of them get candy often.

Birthday Boy, of course Mill Mill with her wild hair had to get a chair too!
