Happy Easter. Blessed Life

Oh the joys

of being a child and for that matter, five super stoked adults. Why you may ask?  Well, it's a pretty big rite of passage, Easter egg coloring and all of the wacky experiences that come from it. Such as?  Watching the little guy's intent face as the egg changes color.  Mama, this is as slow as watching paint dry.

No way, blue and yellow make green. Awesome, because the little guy LOVES green.  More green please, Mama.

And it's always fun to hear the eggs crack as the little guy "gently" puts the egg in the water

As for the adults, we took it all in and couldn't stop laughing. And through it all, somehow someway, the eggs didn't turn out all that bad. 

Easter Egg Coloring

Saturday Morning

This morning, someone was super excited for his first swim lesson. The plan was to swim and then head over to Pop Pops church for an egg hunt.  The problem, we waited and waited for the instructor. Who never showed!  What's up with that?  We made the best of it and swam with the little guy. I mean, when your going to be on the SC swim team, there's no time for delay. Mama, do my trunks look good or the ladies

His New Buddy

Someone has fallen in love with his Uncle Larry. So much so that he climbed right up on his lap for this super cute picture. No worries, Uncle Dick he loves you too. I mean, he keeps asking, where did Dick go

Arrival of the Inlaws

Happy Palm Sunday

Swims like a Fish

Someone did his best impression of a fish today. We went over to a local facility to swim. And he did not disappoint. Mama, gotta get this beach body ready for summer.

Teddy Sustained A Boo Boo

Week in Rewind

The little guy and his Teddy. Could there be a greater love affair. And who wouldn't love Teddy because:

He's a wonderful sleeping companion, who often serves as a pillow

He willingly listens to the little guy sing Wheels on the Bus for hours, with no calls for another song. How does he do it!

At night, he often has deep conversations with the little guy. So Teddy, what do you want to be when you grow up?

He loves taking rides with the little guy. Buckle up, Teddy, we're hitting the road

He sometimes gets a time out, handed out by the little guy. Complete with "what did you do wrong"

Teddy doesn't potty or eat? Something that didn't go unnoticed by the little guy. Genius, no!

He often finds himself in exotic locations like next to the toilet, upside down basking in the sun in full monty or on top of the dog's crate. Trojan: that thing is freaking me out. It won't stop looking at me

And most importantly, Teddy has a special place in the little guy's heart. He rocks a little boy's world like no other.

We love you Teddy, even with the goobish slobber of the little guy. You're perfect.

Happy St Patty's Day

Weekend in Rewind

Move over Dadda, someone moved up to the big boy table. Ladies, the little guy is ready for fine dining. That's right wine and dine time.

Speaking of gourmet food, the little guy made the awesome discovery of a bowl of cereal. Who knew, adding milk to Cheerios was so delectably good.

In potty news, the little guy got a nice 6 pack of super hero underwear. To the bat cave ladies!

That's where he'll shock and awe the ladies with his rockin dance moves. Ever see a more handsome site than the little guy grooving to Wheels on the Bus. And yes ladies, he also has moves for London Bridge too. This boy does it international style

Finally, we have several birthdays. Happy Birthday to Pop Pop, Uncle Dick and JJ. As the little guy likes to say, thanks for loving me

Happy Birthday Pop Poo

Week in Rewind

This family has been stuck with the same cold for months. And it reared its ugly head again last week.  Where's the Mucinex guys when you need them. As Mama likes to say, you have ucka, ucka in your nose.

Even with a cold, the little guy was able to maintain his suave image, with super duper new hair cut. I'm back ladies...

And this time with no diapers.  Yes, we managed to switch out of diapers during the day. Night time is a different story, boy, does that guy like to let it flow when the sun goes down.

And what kind of week starts with heavy snow forecast and ends with mid 50s. No wonder were sick.      By the way, someone should tell the weathermen that an inch of snow does not call for extra coverage of the non-snow event. Geeze people, we can still see our grass.

"The answer is no", said the little guy. Which got me to thinking, where he pick that up.  Twenty minutes later we learned.  Little guy: I want another cookie. Mama: the answer is no.  Interesting...very interesting

And now for my favorite new thought from the little guy.  Mama: what was that noise.  Little guy:  I got gas Mama.  

This Little Guy Can Ride

Big Boy Underwear, Yeah!
