The Easter Egg Hunt



The Easter Egg Hunt at Springville High School is always fun, even if it does attract TONS of people!  The kids have a great time gathering up as much candy as they can, but alas, neither won any prizes.  Hey, there's always next year!

Easter Eggs

The kids decorated some Easter eggs.

While they decorated, I took pictures of Henry's feet, 'cause they're chubby and delicious.

Henry is 3 Months Old

Henry's first time in the Bumbo seat, he smiled and tolerated it for about 5 minutes, tops.  
Glad I'm just borrowing it from a friend! 

Things that the Henry boy does at 3 months:
  • Gives us hearty belly laughs when tickled
  • Sleeps at night for 6-7 hour stretches (most nights)
  • Loves chewing on his chubby little fingers
  • Reaches for toys placed in front of him
  • Drools like a champ!

A 1st Grade Program

The little miss in her "costume"

Yesterday, Sylvia performed in her 1st Grade program, titled "The Little Engine That Could." It was ADORABLE!!! I videotaped the whole thing, but I will spare you that here, as I am beginning to understand that those kind of recordings are only interesting to the parents of the child being recorded. Needless to say, it was very, very cute.

Valentine's Day

Sylvia's special V Day bracelet (cherry sours and sparkly ribbon) 

Sylvia's Blow Pop flower valentines

(Henry was napping, and couldn't be bothered for a photo)

The kids LOVE holidays.  Actually, they love any excuse to run into my room first thing in the morning and shout at me.  This morning, they shouted "HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!!!!!" at the top of their lungs.  We started our day with heart shaped pancakes, or as Sylvia says, "flapjacks."  She's weird.  Both kids have V Day parties at school today, so that will be a lot of fun for them.  We put a lot of time into the Blow Pop valentines, because Sylvia was super into it.  I had to put Ben's Spider Man valentines together for him, and force him to sign his name.  That was how into it he was!

Our other Valentine's Day fun will include:

Lunch with Daddy
Making yummy Valentine Chex Mix (recipe here)
Coloring cute Valentine coloring pages (found here)
And last but not least, our ward is putting on a Valentine's Day dinner/dance with free child care! 

Fun will be had by all :)
