We dyed Easter eggs this week!
And ate Peeps!
The Easter bunny dropped off these character themed baskets with candy inside.
Elliot ate the chocolate bunny. Yum!
Then he started an elaborate nest where he laid all the Easter eggs that we dyed.
He brought a bunny over for inspection.
Eventually the Angry Birds and a chick joined in too.
Here is what I’m most thankful for this Easter!
Another birthday month has come and gone! Thank you to everyone who made these guys’ days so special! Not only did they each celebrate being another year older this month but they were also quite sick for most of it. Everyone is feeling better now! I called this blog post Batman Brothers because they received a couple of the same Batman toys. And instead of one of them being Batman and the other Robin, they were just both Batman, and they called themselves Batman Brothers. That’s pretty good sharing, I think. They are growing up so fast and are good friends too.
Here are some pictures that we took this past month. We had a pirate-themed combo birthday party, complete with a plank to walk and a treasure chest full of booty! Enjoy!

For Elliot’s birthday his school had a special circle time for him. He walked around the sun five times with the globe and then handed out cookies. Where has the time gone?
Today Elliot asked, “Why is everything flat if the earth is round?”
… and so it begins!
Trav started a new gymnastics class today. It’s the next age group up and doesn’t require parent participation. It’s also in a new city and building. Trav got a chocolate coin at the end of class, stamps on his feet, and a lot of teacher attention. He jumped and flipped and bear crawled and monkey jumped for an hour. When Fletch got home from work I asked Trav to tell his dad about his new gym class. Trav said, “Rectangle windows.”
The kids started swimming lessons again.
Trav turned three years old! Both boys got lots of presents!
Making s’mores.
Birthday card excitement!
Presents for Elliot!
Trav passing out cookies at the special circle time honoring him at school.
He just pulled it out right before our sprinkle pancake dinner! It’s one of his lower front ones. Our boy is growing up!
