Picnic Saturday

Zander has told me that he is going to make every Saturday a holiday.  It's going to be called "Picnic Saturday"!  We went on a picnic 1 1/2 weeks ago and had a great time.  We walked to a small park near our house and the boys played and we all ate.  It was the first day it was really sunny, but it was still just a bit chilly.  Anyway, we had a great time!  Here's the photos:





As soon as we got there Zander told me he needed to take a "sun rest".   That's him laying out on the blanket eating his sandwich.  And Michael followed his example.  Keagan was too busy playing to even sit while eating.  He's take a bite while running by.  We had a great time.  Sadie slept the whole time in her car seat in the stroller.

New news

Well, it's spring break (!) for me so I have a lot to say!  First of all, it's been so nice to not have to worry about school, getting up early, doing homework, etc.  I'm still up at 7-7:30 everyday because of the kids, but once (or twice) I've gone back to bed after Zander is off to school and Natalie is here to entertain Keagan.  I've gone walking 3 days this week (including last Saturday). My house is getting a little cleaner every day (again, thanks to Natalie) and I get to see my kids most of the day everyday. Here are some fun pictures of my fam:

I know this isn't the best picture, but the boys were watching TV one afternoon and Keagan was laying right on top of Zander and neither was fussing about it until I got the camera out.  It was so cute.  Also, Zander says the funnies things these days.  He's so smart sometimes...and so funny.  The other day after I finished feeding Sadie, she was still hungry, so I made her a bottle of pumped milk and asked Zander if he wanted to feed her.  He looks at me and says, "What?!  I don't have nipples with milk in them!"  And this last weekend we had a birthday party for my dad.  He asked me how old he was, then added, "I hope he's not more than 100."This one is so cute.  Keagan absolutely adores this little girl. He is constantly crawling on top of her to kiss her, and he always wants to hold her.  Oh yeah, and he calls her "My Seedee" and gets mad when we try to say she ours, too.  =)
This is Sadie at 1 month old. I took this picture in our living room and was pretty impressed with myself!

Here is Sadie at 2 months old, and yes, that's a smile on her face...well kind of. They're so hard to capture in pictures, but she's doing it and warming our hearts every time!


Here's Michael (strutting his stuff) and me on a date last night. We went to dinner at Orchid, a Thai restaurant close to us (that I highly recommend), then we went ice skating! It was a great night; we had a lot of fun. =)
