I just spent an HOUR trying to figure out how to unlock Nick and Eric's door. Nick decided that yesterday would be the perfect day to learn how to escape from bed, oh and he also thought that while that was an accomplishment why not tackle more? No, he's not potty trained, are you kidding? No no no...their door has a lock on the INSIDE (really stupid, but since they couldn't get out of bed, who cared til now?) and he now knows how to lock it, but not unlock it...well, on command anyway. Yes it had a little hole on the other side of the doorknob...and I couldn't get it to unlock. So it's nap time, Liam is asleep in his room, Nicholas is laying on the floor by Eric's bed and they are giggling their heads off, and I can't get into their room so I'm in the hallway outside quietly trying to get Nick to follow instructions which was a dead end. Eventually I had to unscrew the doorknob from the door which I thought would solve everything. Apparently I don't know how doorknobs or locks work though and all it did was leave me confused with greasy fingers and tons more frustration. After poking at it and turning things and banging on it all while my 2 year olds laughed hysterically I eventually shoved a screwdriver down in there somewhere and managed to get it unlocked. I realized that I had no idea how to switch which side was the lock side and instead opted for a piece of duct tape over the entire doorknob on the inside. Anywho...all I can say was...that sucked. It sucked really bad.
The End.

The Big Kahuna of Posts---EASTER
I don't know whose bright idea it was to put Easter on Conference, but it totally screwed me up and I kept telling myself that Easter was not on the day that it was. Saturday night I dashed to Target to discover that it was a stupid place to go the night before Easter. However, I find Target has exceptional children's clothing (i kind of find that I think all childrens clothing anywhere to be exceptional...tee hee) and got some very cute Easter clothes and some really crappy candy. How do they not even have jelly beans...or anything remotely egg shaped. Oh and just as I asked my mom on the phone...WHY would somebody want to EAT a chocolate cross!?! Sure, draw one, hang one up, think about one, read about one...but eat it? If He got shot would people be eating chocolate guns? I'm sorry but the whole concept of eating a cross just weirds me the heck out. Done with ranting.

So let's backpedal....on Saturday (after Annette and Ally assured me that Easter was that Sunday) we decided to dye some eggs!
They found it to be very enjoyable even if none of them are fond of boiled eggs. Case in point...LIAM:

He's all, "Sure I'll try it...Are you kidding me? This belongs on the floor! Gross!"
Sunday we opened the blinds to see snow everywhere...Happy Easter! We got the kids all dressed up and then made salad and pineapple upside down cake while listening to Conference.
Then after the kids woke up from nap we headed on over to Ryan's parents for dinner and the indoor Egg Hunt. Nick had a bit of an accident during nap and so we had to take him out of the Easter clothes which was kinda sad, but he was still cute (duh).
So yeah, it was a good weekend and good food. Yay! I hope everybody else had a great Easter too!

Spring Break: A Side Note Post Easter
Ally stayed out our house for 3 days of her Spring Break and instead of doing important things we made hats with Knifty Knitters. I made 3 hats for the 3 boys and they are super adorable. They are hat models. Seriously...they need and agent.
We've moved! Like 2 weeks ago...
Ignore random clutter/dishes. Don't judge me! I'm busy! :) I'm sorry for slacking on posting, but I was sharing Ryan's computer until Friday night and I like to use MINE. Anywho, we are more than pleased with our new place, it is light years beyond what we were expecting to get and what we moved out of.
