EASTER CELEBRATIONS

HAPPY EASTER!
 We actually didn't do this with Vienna last year, which I can't remember why but this year was such a blast! She loved it.
 Lincoln on the other hand looks mighty unimpressed. lol! He is infatuated with the plastic eggs though.
 Got the painting apron on and ready to get to work.
 The art so far
 My 2 besties!
 Easter decor, looking much better than last year for sure.
 Vienna made that cute little Easter chick and I made the button egg. Crafty eh!
 The finished products, missing a few

 The Easter bunny was good to these little monkeys. For some reason Vienna wanted to wear her purple butterfly skirt (the same one she slept in) so to say the least that didn't go over really well...children. Mike really wanted her to wear it and so she finally agreed. Thank goodness, she got 9 million compliments on it (good choice Peg)
 Lincoln was more entertained by the empty eggs, he is easy to please.

 Lincoln Bunny
 This is what she wanted to wear to bed..what a girl!
 Mama Bunny!
 Dada Bunny!
Not sure what is happening!
We were able to have a very nice lesson on Christ's resurrection and watched a video with Vienna. She seemed to really enjoy it and perhaps grasp a bit of the special meaning of His special gift to each of us. I know I am so grateful to my Savior for his sacrifice for me and everyone.

St. Patty's and Spring Break Thus Far...

 We decided to go our for Saturday lunch, we never go out. 1 because we have no money and 2 we have two little kids that make big messes. None the less, we had some coupons and thought it would be a fun way to kick off Mike's Spring break. It reminded me why we don't go out and the way my stomach felt for 2 days reminds me why its not worth going out...to certain places.
 Vienna wanted to be in a picture with Daddy and Lincoln. We had a fun time!
 Sunday morning and St. Patricks Day a little leprechaun not only made our breakfast foods green and brought Lucky Charms, but also made our toilet water green and left Vienna a little bit of green candy. We also had shamrock shaped ravioli for dinner.
 She seemed to take to everything being green pretty good.
 Mike is a true kid, I think he was more excited about his Lucky Charms than the kids.
 He eats almost anything so I never worry about him.
 Look close...little leprechaun feetsies.
 Vienna's green candy
 We went swimming today and they both did really well but Vienna was much more nervous about trying to swim and float by herself with her life jacket on. Swimming lessons this Summer should be interesting.
Holding on to both kiddos. Luckily they are much lighter in water. 
There's more fun to come....YEAH SPRING BREAK!!!

Our Kiddos as of Late

 This adorable little goober is now 10 and a half months old and is too adorable for words. He is growing up so much! He loves his sister so much! He gets into everything (like the toilet, pulling dressers on himself) but he is O so adorable...just look at that grin.
 his O face is so cute. I remember Vienna doing this all the time too. Everything is O this and O that with that cute O face. He really is trying to tell me things with his O face. Also see the drool dripping down his chin, thats due to more teeth. he now has his mandibular and maxillary incisors and he is getting his maxillary laterals. Teeth is always so tough on little ones, but so far he is tougher about it than our little V was.
 And here she is, my darling Miss Vienna, who literally lives in her Repunzel dress is an absolute devoted princess. She is really into dancing and turning on the keyboard to that pre-recorded music and rocking out. It's loads of fun! She also loves to listen to her princess music on her I-phone. She just loves her brother, still too much sometimes, like with lots of head lock hugs. But loves him none the less.
 Here they are together and she just cant stop moving or dancing, hence the reason she is blurry in all of these.
 He is always watching her, which is great because she is such a sweet, thoughtful caring little girl.
 Just love that smile...
 I tried to get her in this one too but she was not having it. Dancing is way more important.
 This is the best one I could get of her...what a girl.
 That's such a funny face.
I finally got a still shot. This little lady is SO excited to turn 3 and have a princess Birthday party. I am so excited for her too. She is such a social little girl and is still LOVING her playgroup with her friends Sloan and Evie and her dance class with her new dance teacher Wendy. 
Mike and I sure enjoy our children and all the sweet things in life that they bring.

Dental Visit

 First time for Vienna at my office, we actually got 2 x-rays and a polish, but the teeth we have been monitoring have finally turned into trouble...
We have finally named the newest member of our family...Roony( our van) and Vienna is in love!
