*oh my*
here we are concluding a week of birthday festivities with a family dinner and gifts from us. abel was thrilled to receive a razor scooter, which seemed like a good choice given his reluctance to learn to ride a bike. ollie uncovered a new pet dinosaur. our thinking--maybe this is the only kind of family friend we can handle. all that we need to remember is an occasional new set of batteries...
toward the end of this busy week, i headed to california with willem in tow to spend time with family. after playing with friends on friday, the boys had a couple of fun days alone with dad. they got dirty, painted, played at the ymca, ate pizza and probably stayed up later and consumed more sugar than their mom would allow. what a great dad they have!
...and then they were off to nana's for a week where they played board games, read countless books, learned to love their uncle's wii, camped outside with their papa, made cookies and crafts, snuggled with their nana, and went on a few outings. mark gave abel the camera to take pictures during their two hour drive to nashville. i really love the self portrait...
willem and i made it safely back to chattanooga in time for the boys' return and to celebrate easter with mark's family. mark and his brother hid eggs in the park near our home for our guys and their cousin, remie. it was truly a beautiful day. the boys are pictured quickly consuming their bounty before mom decided to confiscate the sugar.
...and here are all of my guys with their bunnies. willem was a little bummed that he was not partaking of the chocolate.
