little room under the stairs perfect for a kid hide out.

back yard...back of house..see we need a patio or deck. There is a door wall in the back.

We are moving! Yeah! It is so amazing we found a house with everything we want in a home and more. It is 4 bedroom, 3 bath, ranch with a finished basement. There is 1 acre of land. Half of the acre is wetlands. It is a great view but there will be more bugs because of it. For those of you that know me really well know that I am not a bug lover. As long as there are no huge spiders I should be fine.

The boys will finally have a yard to play in. Just in time for summer! We are already thinking of improvements we will make. The house does not need any work inside. We will only need to paint the boys rooms. One room is pink which needs to go. The other bedroom has some crayon marks on the walls. I'm sure we will have new crayon marks at some point.

We want to put a patio in the back yard. In a few years we want to put in a pool and hot tub. The first thing we need to do is build a swing set for the boys. There is a swing set there now but the sellers are taking it with them.

I am going to try to post more pictures. I am having problems with blogger so I hope it works!

Potter Park Zoo

Noah....look how big he looks.
Me and Dyllie
Adam and the boys....Noah (L) Dylan (R)

This picture makes me laugh! At first he refused to get on the giraffe. I talked him into it...Adam said if I look stupid you have to delete it. NO WAY!
HUGE Ostrich!!

We went to a great little zoo in Lansing over the weekend. We had such a good time! The boys really enjoyed the zoo and loved seeing all the animals. Our favorite animals were the otters, peacocks, and the Ostrich. I never knew how huge ostriches really are! I am still in shock over the size of these birds. You will see in the picture they are at least half as tall as the buildings. I can't wait to go back to Potter Park more this spring/summer.

Kissing

Ahhh!! These are the sweetest pictures of the boys. They just learned how to kiss!! This is the second time I was able to get them to do it.

They are learning so many new words. Dylan talks more than Noah but I'm sure Noah will catch up soon. Dylan newest words are: bus, bye byes, goes, bunny, and barney.

We were enjoying a couple days of warmer weather. They like playing outside with their ride on toys and running around. We saw a helicopter and airplane the other day. Now every time they hear one fly over they go running to the window to see it.

We went to Toys R' Us today and they each got a fire rescue cozy coupe and gas pump! Hopefully the warm weather returns soon so they can play with it.

Dylan is on the left and Noah is on the right in the pictures.
