First Half of April 2013

April 7 - General Conference

Our friend Quinn recently tried out for the Mormon Tabernacle Choir and got in. He has had many hours of practice and rehearsal to get ready for his first General Conference session. 

We were pretty darn excited as we searched him out.

Our Ninja and Princess came downstairs all dressed up this morning...an often occurrence.

Yes...she even has makeup on.

Alex's FIRST Haircut!!!

Resigned to the fact that this is happening

Yea!! All Finished!

Much much better...now just time for a bath

April 13 - Autism Awareness Festival

We went to a Autism Awareness Festival with several of our friends. We had lunch, got our faces painted, played games, painted, petted snakes and a large tortoise (which Alex could not stop saying hello to), had a balloon release and much more. 

Afterwards there was a baseball game. We had a wonderful afternoon.

 

April 17 - Paint Face

I have been in the process of redoing my kitchen and have therefore been painting assorted projects. Unfortunately, I left out a small cup of yellow paint assuming it wouldn't be 

within reach. Deary me. Definitely not juice. Yuck.

Calendar Moment: Alex started walking around on his own between things. Getting more confident! Also pulling up to standing without using anything...just leg muscles.

April 18 - Dishes?

Our growing mister has been attempting to help with the dishes as of late. My oh my.

Menchie's Frozen Yogurt

We thought it would be fun to take our kiddos out for a special treat. They were THRILLED.

Silly silly boys.

Getting Daddy!

Chalk Hands!

Easter!

March 31 - Easter Sunday

Dinner at the Park

It was fun to have Mom and Dad Berg and Spencer with us to celebrate Easter. After church we went over to the park to eat and play Bocce Ball. Alex is getting braver at walking...as long as he has something to hold on to. His favorite thing right now is the stroller.

 

 Grandpa climbed up the tree and of course Joey wanted to try too

The Days Before Easter

March 29, 2013 - Class Party

We has a fun Easter party today in Preschool. We made hats, Easter bags (to collect eggs), had a Bunny Obstacle Course (where you had to hop the whole time), and an Easter Egg Hunt.

March 30, 2013 - Easter Bunny Arrived!

Our Easter Bunny always comes before the kids wake up Saturday morning to make room for the true celebration of Easter on Sunday. Our Bunny loves to leave a trail of candy, leading each child to their Easter treasure. Joey's lead under the desk, while Lydia's was hidden in the pile of clothes...tricky Bunny.
