5 things about...

Audrey
1. She loves to flirt with everyone. She has to make sure everyone in the room acknowledges her. She gets other moms in the library to hold her and read her books.
2. She loves accessories. She loves wearing hats, necklaces, hair bows, bracelets, anything girly.
3. She eats more than I do. She can eat a whole enchilada and a bunch of rice. One night she ate so much at dinner she looked like she was nine months pregnant.
4. She yells mommy all day long.
5. She loves her big brother and follows him around everywhere.

Porter
1. He thinks he can sing. We all know this cannot be since neither one of his parents can sing. He sings all day long. We he talks to me he is singing.
2. He loves to help. Sometimes the help is unwanted but he does it anyway. Mostly he tried to help Audrey sit down while she is screaming at him.
3. He loves learning. He is getting better at counting and can almost sing his abc's.
4. He asks me to cuddle him at night before he goes to bed, or sometimes he asks me to love him. Then I give him hugs and kisses and he says, "Thank you!"
5. He loves to have friends over, play at the park, or do anything social.
6. He is always happy! (I just thought of this one and it just sums Porter up.)

Spring is almost here!

Audrey is a climber. She finds everyway possible to make a mess.
On Monday it was in the high 70's! I dug out the shorts and sunhats. The kids had fun playing in the dirt.

Easter

I think the pictures say it all.

Update for the Crazy March

Eric and I started training for a sprint triathlon in June. We are really excited. So far our great accomplishments are Eric's 3 mile run in 21 minutes and Kristina's 16 min half mile swim and 24:45 min 3 mile run. We are tired from getting up so early for our workouts but it is a lot of fun to see how much we have improved. If I could just learn to ride a bike!

For my birthday Eric made me an amazing ice cream pie.

We often go to "Jump On It." The kids both love jumping on the trampolines and going down all the blow-up slides. The only problem is Audrey has no fear and thinks she can do everything the five year olds are doing.

Porter had his first experience with finger painting. He thought is was a blast.

Happy Birthday Audrey

Audrey was pretty tired by the time we got to the cake. I think she liked the yellow cake from Eric's birthday better than the chocolate cupcakes I made her.

WOW! I think she got more presents for her birthday than for Christmas.

The Nelson's, Losee's and Uncle Scott joined us to celebrate Audrey's birthday. We had a great time together.

Story Time at the Pool

Story time was all about Pirates and the sea so they organized a swim party for the last day. The kids had so much fun.

Eric's Birthday

Eric's not a big fan of birthdays but we still had a nice night. We went to Brick Oven for Pizza without the kids. Then we celebrated with cake and milk.

Audrey loved the cake. It took her a minute to really dig in but soon the whole piece was gone!
