Other happenings in March and April

  This is a post with some random pictures from March and April...
 
Tire Swing Fun at a beautiful, local park. We love Waxhaw, NC!
One day when I was doing something with Levi, I noticed Wyatt was writing something down in the other room. Later, he showed me what he was doing. In the picture below, you will see...I was shocked and amazed! He just loves math and write these type of problems out for fun...just out of his head. And he loves to play with calculators too!
The picture below is of my cutie pie, Levi at his Spring Program in Preschool. He is standing by some his artwork that he did this year.
 
And of course, I have to have an Easter basket picture!
Wyatt finally lost his first tooth! One month after he turned 6 yrs old! He has been wanting to lose a tooth for quite a while. And he literally "lost" it...we do not know where it went. We think he may have swallowed it while eating cereal in the morning!
Levi was very, very happy and proud to be able to get his very own library card! You had to be 5 yrs old and able to write your first and last name!
And just 2 days after his 1st tooth came out, he lost his 2nd one! This time, he wiggled it out and caught it! He was very happy to g $1 from the tooth fairy!
This isn't a pretty picture, but these are our blueberry bushes that are finally budding and going to produce berries this year! Very excited to get our very own blueberries from our backyard in a few months!

The Zoo in March and a Visit from Cousins

My sister and her 3 boys were able to come and stay with us for a whole week to visit! Her oldest is just 4 months younger Levi! So we had a 6 yr old, 2 4 yr olds, a 2 yr old and a 3 month old! It was a tons of crazy fun! Here is one of the best "nice" pictures that we got of them all together!

And here's a silly one with the "older" boys...thought it best that the baby be removed from the couch when they started posing for this one!
And of course we had to dress up as super heroes!
From right to left: Batman, Wyatt. Mr. Incredible, Ethan. Batman, Levi. Superman, Hudson.
Striking a tough guy, superhero pose, and cutie pie Hudson too!
The boys had been asking for a months when Daddy could go to the zoo with us! We cleared a Saturday in March and prayed for good weather! We had a perfect day!
Here are our not quite as little anymore, monkeys climbing up on the high rocks.
Where did this cute monkey come from?
Being silly in a hole in rock! So handsome even when being goofy!
They remembered Grandma reading to them about lemurs and wanted to go get a picture next to the info about them to show her!
Levi loves to walk around w/ the map open and tell us where to go to next!
They always want to pose on these metal statues!




Here are some more pictures from the week my sister and her kids spent with us!
Below are some good morning smiles!
Aunt Emily with all the boys!
Levi loved to hold baby Austin and put his cheek close to him.
Wyatt also loved holding him, in fact, they were even fighting over would get to hold him next!
