Preschool Graduation

 Today Kylie had her preschool graduation. She has been counting down the days till preschool was over so that she could graduate. She has learned so much in preschool and can't wait for kindergarten. She's growing up too fast, if only there was a way to stop it.

Skateland

For family night we went to Skateland. I haven't been skating since high school, so about 11 years. Sam can't even remember the last time he had gone. Not sure what we were thinking taking 4 young kids skating. It's just like riding a bike, right. No not at all. Some how we made it through the night without falling. I'm sure we were very entertaining to watch. We each had a stroller with a boy in it and a girl hanging on. Janika did adventure out and went several times around by herself.

Coco

Yes we added another animal to our home.  Sam took us for a ride the other day to Wendell and surprised us with a puppy. This is Coco, a poodle terrier, and oh so little. She'll only get to be about the size of a cat. The girls love having a small dog, she's pocket size right now. They carry her around every where. Xander likes Coco, but loves his dog, Roxy. He knows that he can wrestle Roxy but not Coco.  Xander and Roxy are best buds. Coco fits right in, she's sweet and feisty.

Kieron

 Here's a little update on Kieron. I would say on the family but Kieron is at a fun/crazy age of first. He's getting so big and doing big boy things. In the past month he has eaten his first food, started rolling over, blowing blubbles and loves to grab everything. 

Eating rice cereal for the first time.

He can't get enough, he always grabbing at the spoon.

Love this little guy

He does this ALL day.

Kieron's Haircuts

Kieron had a very bad bald spot on the back of his head. His hair was looking pretty bad. After many arguments, ok discussions, I gave in and cut Kieron's hair. Sam has a long list of different hair styles that he want's to do on Kieron, Mr. T, Steps, Kid n Play, and the list goes on. I agreed to a mohawk /Mr T for one week. Then we cute it all the same length. I miss his curly hair, but his eyes really pop with his hair short.

Bye bye curls, sooo sad

Easter

Happy Easter, hope everyone had a great day.  The kids had great a day filled with Easter outfits, candy, books, and eggs. 

Spring Break

 The kids had spring break last week, so we headed to Reno to see my family. We had a great time at the park with my brother Scott, sister-in-law Cassie and their 3 cute kids. The girls just had to show everyone that they could do the monkey bars. Kieron had his first ride in the swing. Xander had a blast trying to caught the geese. 

 While in Reno we also went to the Shine Circus. The kids were in awe the whole time. It was fun to see them so excited. Even Kieron was wide eyed.

Not the best picture, but here's Kieron with his Papa

After a few days in Reno we headed home to see more family. Sam's brother from AZ came to town along with their sister Alex from Boise. The kids love their Uncle Oel(Joel) and Uncle Dave, because they're just big kids.
