Easter, Bowling, and some random pictures

Sorry I know this is kinda late. We had a really good Easter. Andru got to play with Cole and Chloe, she has missed them so much. We had an Easter egg hunt at Grandmas. Lexi was just excited to run all over the yard she didn't really want to pick up any eggs.

Lexi has started to love coloring.

We just set her on the floor with crayons and paper she LOVES it.

I think mostly just because she loves doing whatever Andru is doing.

We have never really done family home evening. But a while ago we decided that we would just have Monday be family fun night. Yesterday we decided to go bowling. Andru loved it, she was just sad that she never got a strike like her dad.

Lexi just loved the m&ms (big surprise).

Kristi's sister in law got married this past weekend. Kristi asked me if I could make their cake. a few people have wanted to see pictures of it so here you go.
p.s my mom did the flowers

Andru is 5!

Yesterday was Andru's Birthday. She is 5!!!!!!!!!Crazy.

I let her pick out her own cake she was so excited.
We had family come over and open presents and have cake and icecream.

She got lots of fun stuff.
Dave and I gave her this super cute bed. I love it so does Andru.
I saw it in pottery barn. But man it was crazy expensive. So Dave showed Josh (the guy that works with him) and asked how hard it would be to make. He said he could do it and I think he did awesome. Thanks Josh.
I am going to make some cute little pink curtains for it.

She had a really good Birthday. I can't believe she is 5. She is such a good girl she is so sweet and easy going. I think she is so much like Dave. We are so lucky to have her.
We love you Andru. Happy Birthday!!!

Cute little Lexi

I just wanted to post some cute pictures of Lex. She got into my drawer full of headbands and decided they were necklaces so she put them all on.
Her hair is getting so long and she is growing up so fast. It makes me sad.

Andru

I can't believe Andru is almost 5. She is growing up so fast. Last week she was the V.I.P. at preschool. She is so sweet. She is also such a girl. For Christmas she got some makeup. Well a few weeks later we had some things we needed to go do so I told her to go get her socks and shoes on. She ran off and I finished getting Lexi ready. She was taking forever so I went looking for her I found her in the bathroom doing her makeup. I told her to stop we needed to go she freaked out "but I need to get ready to go" she didn't want to leave the house without her makeup done. The funny thing is I don't really wear makeup all the time and I don't wear a lot when I do. So I never thought she would be so worried about it. She has also started to get all mad if she thinks something is ugly and I want her to wear it. She needs new shoes so the other day I took her to find some well every pair we found she didn't like so she didn't get new shoes. She is just all girl I love it. She is also the best big sister Lexi just loves her to death.

She is so tall. She is 43" and 43lbs.

Love you Andru.

Sniff

I have been wanting a dog for such a long time so last week we got one. He is a Puggle, a pug and beagle. He is super cute. Andru named him Sniff.

Lexi

I know my last post was short so I figured I would catch you up a little with Lexi today.

She is growing up so fast it makes me sad. At her 1 year check up she was 19lbs and 29" she is so tiny at least to me she seems so tiny Andru was 22lbs 5oz and 30.5".
She started walking about 3 weeks ago. She is so feisty I love it. She loves to sass Ian, poor kid I think he thinks shes nuts. She got a piggy bank for her birthday, we give Andru money for her to put in hers all the time so we let Lexi try to put some money in hers and she loves it. So I put a pile of change next to her and let her have fun. (don't worry I was watching her the whole time so she wouldn't eat any)

Lexi can now say, Da da, Ma ma, Kitty, and Z that is what she says for fuzzy which is what we call her blanket.


This is her on New Years eve. We went to our friends house I was really worried about her, I didn't think she would make it but she was so good.
She is such a good baby. I love how much she loves Andru. I am so glad that I had 2 girls .
There is nothing like having a sister.
