Busy Easter Day

We had a very busy Easter day! We spent the afternoon with Daddy's family. Grandma made a yummy Easter lunch, then Eli got to open his Easter basket. He especially liked the car toothbrush and the car book. (If you can't tell, he's REALLY into cars right now). Eli enjoyed playing with his uncles and playing with the Matchbox cars.

That evening we spent time with Mommy's family. We went to Aunt Keli & Uncle Pablo's house. Eli and his cousins had an Easter egg hunt.....Eli and Vincent were not into it at all. Next, the older boys had a scavenger hunt. We had a delicious Easter dinner, then all the boys opened Easter gifts from Grandpa and Grandma. Eli really liked the Bob the Builder video! (He's REALLY into Bob right now, too).

We got home kind of late that evening and had such a busy day, so Eli had to wait and open his Easter basket from us the next day. It was nice to get to spend time with our families on this special day. Thank you for your thoughtfulness.

Birthday Fun with Friends

Saturday was my birthday.....we won't say how old I am now. Grandma watched Eli overnight for us so we could go out. Scott took me to one of my favorite restaurants, Stirred, for sushi and martinis. Yum! We then went to Mishawaka to meet up with Kidders and another couple, Mike and Lauren. We went to the Pheonix to watch the band Red Alert. We had such a great time dancing and hanging out with friends! It was a fun night!

What a day!!!

We had a very exciting, yet stressful day yesterday. I was so happy because Keli and the boys were coming over to spend the day with Eli and me. Leo and Diego had fun playing the WII while Vincent and Eli played with all the toys. Marcel is getting so big! Basically he just ate and slept. Eli began to get fussy, so I put him down for a nap. We had lunch, then decided to go outside so we wouldn't disturb Eli, and it was such a beautiful day! Think it got to 50 degrees! We were having a nice time talking and playing outside when the neighbor's dog got out of their fence and came over to our house. It was outside our fence, but it was antagonizing our dogs. I even tried to shoo the dog away, but it wouldn't leave my dogs alone. After about 30 minutes of this excitement our dog, Riley, had a seizure!!! Keli and the boys decided to leave so I could call the vet immediately. Grandma came over to watch Eli and we were off to the vet. Both the dogs are okay, but we've got to watch Riley in case she has another one, and Murphy is limping from the day's activities. Poor babies! What a day!

Michael Jordan #2


This week we purchased Eli a basketball hoop. Daddy was so excited to give it to him. Eli loved it! We set it at 3 feet so Eli could dunk. I think we have a basketball player in our future!
