Cool Tricks! Cool Tricks!

Madee Lou has a new trick.
She puts her head on the ground and puts her butt in the air like she's going to do a somersault. 
But she just stays there.
I think she just likes to take a gander at the world upside down.


She does it all the time.
I frequently find her standing like that in her crib when she should be napping.
She just stands there, looking between her legs at her bedroom upside down chatting softly to herself.
She's a weird kid.

In other news, she now has two new top teeth (four teeth total)!

Look Mom...

I came downstairs the other day to find Jaxen like this:


And he said, "Look Mom, I'm Madee!"


It was a good thing he was stuck or I wouldn't have been able to get a picture.

Egg Festivities

Photobucket
We colored eggs a few days after Easter.
Yes, I said after.
Photobucket

Photobucket
They are best friends.
Photobucket
I know what you're wondering, and yes, we do feed Tyler.

Photobucket
Madee just observed from her high chair.

Photobucket
She's pretty even with squash on her face.

I tried about 15 times to get a picture of Tim... instead I just got pictures like this:

And this:

And this...

You can really tell where our kids get their good looks....

Before we could stop him, Jaxen threw a battery in to get dyed.

Photobucket
Our eggs (and battery) drying.
Photobucket
She was sick of being in her chair. 
Photobucket

Photobucket
Jaxen was trying to immitate Tim's goofy faces....
I think he did a pretty good job.
Photobucket
Real attractive husband.... real attractive.

After our egg dying fun, we finished off the night right with some color wonder tablets in the bath.
The boys said they were dying themselves.

Eeeeeeaster

Photobucket
This year, the Easter bunny didn't come until after we'd left for church.
So after church, we made the kids sit for a picture before they could go in and see the goods.
Photobucket


Photobucket

Our yard was still lacking in the grass department, so we borrowed a neighbors yard.
I found a good shady spot, but Jaxen wouldn't stay, so I had to take what I could get.
Photobucket
When I was little, my sisters and I always got a new Easter dress, so I had to carry on the tradition.
Photobucket
The goods.
Photobucket
The Easter bunny couldn't find small packages of licorice so the boys each got a big one.
Jaxen was pleased.
Photobucket
Tyler wasted no time in removing his pants.

Photobucket
Jaxen's top priority was his chocolate.
Photobucket

Photobucket

Photobucket
Pretty bunny
Photobucket

Photobucket

Photobucket

Photobucket
It didn't take long for a water gun fight (without the water) to break out.
Photobucket

After a little Sunday nap, we made our way to my parents house for an Easter egg hunt and dinner.
Photobucket

Photobucket

Photobucket
Baby Eater... You're a horrible person!
Photobucket

Photobucket
I don't know what was going on, but I feel good about it.
Photobucket

Photobucket
Once again, Even has no hips to keep his pants on.
Photobucket
My Grandpa bought me these cute little egg trays (he ordered them from a catolog!!).
Photobucket
The Easter egg hunt at my parents house has become a pretty big event.
Photobucket

Photobucket

Photobucket

Photobucket
Madee was less concerned with the eggs than she was her bucket.
Photobucket
Once again.... the kid has priorities.


Photobucket
We're in love.

Photobucket

Photobucket

Photobucket
Rambo was too cool to hunt for eggs this year.
Photobucket

Photobucket

Photobucket
Lesley has become rather skilled in avoiding my camera... but I did get this partial shot of her.
Photobucket

Photobucket
Madelinn and Delilah
Photobucket
Jaxen shares.
Oh Kati... even from this picture I can see his little hands are dirty.
Photobucket

Photobucket

Photobucket
Then we went down to the park by my Mom's so the boys could try out their new kites.
Photobucket

Photobucket

Photobucket
Oh... and we realized Tyler and Jessi have almost the same sized feet.
