Laughs!

Daddy makes us laugh :) They don't even laugh this big for me... Only for Daddy.

(They both kind of have elf ears...)

Monkeys

Momma's little monkeys! The boys wear these monkey outfits a lot because we have 4 of them in the same size. I think I'm going to miss the monkeys when they grow out of them :( The feet have little monkey heads on them. Too cute!

Easter Cupcakes

So, Matt's off to another race... The first one I won't be having any help with the boys for... So, I decided that I deserved a cupcake (even though I was supposed to be starting my diet the week).

I decided to make some Easter cupcakes :) They are just like the ones I made for Halloween. Here's a link for all the details and instructions on how to make these cute little guys.

Afternoon at the park

'Hey Jonas, this green stuff is AWESOME! Look at it really close.'

It ain't easy being green

Sweet Boys

Obsess much...

You are all familiar with Matt's love of vintage VW's...

Well, I'm thinking that these shoes are a MUST for the Boys :) SO cute!

Tara and Stella meet the boys

I LOVE my family! We've had so many visitors since the boys birth ( well, actually since I got pregnant). I think in the past year my mom has come out to visit 6 times, Tara has come twice and Becka has come once. Brothers... You are welcome to come too! I'm glad that we are all as close as we are even though I'm on the opposite side of the country.

Tara and Stella were lucky enough to fly first class, but that still didn't help with the jet-lag/time difference for Stella. They day after they got in she was so tire she fell asleep eating her breakfast.
Tara was super excited to hold some babies and give them some love. Here she is with Jonas. He was quite smitten with her.
We did a lot of cooking, mostly cookies, but here's a shot of the yummy margherita pizza we made.
Stella was a great helper with the boys. Always making sure they were happy with their blankets and binkies.
Again, with the helping. I can't believe how big she is!
Here's Tara snuggling Elliott to sleep.
Stella loves showing off her scary face (Presley is a great big sister and taught her how to make a scary face).
We had to throw in a meal at the Waffle House just to make Chris jealous.
Stella giving uncle Matt some love.
Another one of our cooking adventures. Chocolate Pudding Cake. This was fabulous (and super easy)! Camille had made it for book club night and Tara fell in love with this recipe and had to teach me how to make it too.
Another place Tara wanted to visit while she was here was the Steak & Shake. I think Stella enjoyed herself too ( I think I have a similar photo of Presley at the S & S too...).


Tara had to rent a car because my tiny little car couldn't hold all of us. Stella is Enjoying a rice bar and a movie in the car.
Tara told me I was only allowed to let her go to Bruster's once for her favorite Key Lime Pie ice cream.
As always, the visit was too short! Thanks for coming out! I can't wait to see you all again in May :)
