This year was Abigail's second one doing an egg hunt, but she was an old pro and had a great time. Here she is finding one in the crack of the tree house tree. She just kept running around the yard, yelling, "This is so much fun, this is so much fun!"

Josiah had a great time on his first egg hunt at Bonky's house last week. Here he is very determined to find another egg.

Careful!

This was a hilarious scenario. Abigail was going through her Easter basket and got to a baggy with some marshmallows in it. She looked up, and made this face and said, "Marshmallows?" Very confused. Silly girl.

What?

The best picture we got of Josiah in his Easter vest, he was really wanting someone to pull him in the wagon. He's so funny!

Abigail ate this egg for breakfast this morning. How sweet! But she didn't like the yolk, how weird? Or the cheese as she called it at first, as she thought it looked like cheese.

Here is our first attempt at the two kids coloring eggs together. This is the only good picture we got, it didn't last long, Josiah wanted to touch everything, he is such a boy, I love him! Maybe next year.

Don't let this picture fool you, she looks like she's being careful, but more often than not she dropped the egg in the cup. But we didn't have any broken ones.

What a beautiful girl we have, here at Bonky's with her Easter dress she picked out all on her own. Though I was smart enough this year to buy a sweater to go with it, though she had shed it by this point in the day. Lots more Easter pics to come, check back!

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Abigail has been really into trying to stand on her head recently. She is really good at it if she has something to rest on. Or for a few fleeting seconds without something. Here is an interesting angle of her triumph.

What are you doing?

Josiah is observing wondering what Abigail is doing, and whether or not he should give it a try.

That was good Mom!

Even if the meal is crazy, which is most often is, if I can look at this face after we're done eating, I'm the happiest Mommy on earth!

I feel like I've been lax on pictures as of late, so here are a few. This one is so silly. We were getting ready for church this past Sunday and Josiah put Abigail's patten leathers on his hands and just started dancing and clapping. What a silly boy.

I am funny!

As I alluded to in a previous post we had lost one of Josiah's gloves. And then he had to wear Abigail's pink ones. Well thanks to our great friends Ashley and Chrissy that is no longer the case. Here he is, and in the following photo, sporting his BLUE gloves. Thanks guys for giving our little man back his manliness.

I truly can't believe that my baby boy is 18 months old. I stopped doing couch pictures every month at a year, but decided to do it at a year and a half. So here he is, obviously bigger ( you can go back and look at the others if you want, I posted them in September). I think he looks a bit like something in an ad, holding Abigail's computer thing, but he still needs something to make sure he sits still. Oh, but that smile, it is still melting my heart. What a great kid! He went to the doc for his check up today, and while he hasn't grown in weight a bunch, thanks to the croup i'm sure, he has grown nearly 2 inches in the last 3 months. Thinning out and getting taller, but trust me, when you get this boy nakey, he still has a big ole belly! We love him so!!!!
