New Member

Well, we caved to the cuteness and Noah hounding us for a dog. Today we added a new member to our family. She (notice I said she) is a Maltese/ShihTzu mix. We absolutely fell in love with her when we saw her. We will see if I still love her tomorrow morning!!!! The boys are having fun. Zachary keeps saying "doggie" and Noah has been playing and cuddling with her. She seems so far to be very mellow, but time will tell. We still don't have a name for her, so we are open to any suggestions!!!

Little Helper

Well, as of right now, Zachary is our little "neat freak". He goes around picking up everything that his brother leaves laying around. One of his favorite things to do is to collect our shoes and put them in the laundry basket. On this paticular night, felt the need to help with the dishes. So here he is assuming "HIS" position!!!

Let's Go Fly a Kite

The other night we were sitting at the dinner table and Noah saw someone flying a kite at the school across the street, so he wanted to go and fly his Diego kite. It was a perfect evening for kite flying. The kite flew easily in the air. We had such a great time just hanging out together.

This is the only time Noah wasn't running around holding on to the kite!

The kite kept Zachary's interest a lot longer than it kept Noah's!!

After we were finished flying Diego, we went to the playground to play.

I had so much fun taking pictures of the boys.

Henry, the Minnesota Puppy

Last summer while we were in Minnesota, Noah made a dog at the Build-a-Bear Workshop at the Mall of America. He has affectionately called him "Henry, the Minnesota Puppy" ever since. He decided that he needed to bring the puppy along on our visit last week. He went back to the Mall of America and picked out a "surfer" outfit for Henry to go with his "Surfboard" room. So, I guess the puppy's new name is "Henry, the Minnesota Surfer Puppy"!!!

Easter

For Easter the boys were dressed in matching outfits. I figured I'd better dress them alike while Noah still thinks it's fun!!!

Our handsome little boy!!!
Noah raked in the candy at the church Easter Egg Hunt. He had a lot of fun!

Spring has Sprung

Today was such a gorgeous day!! We couldn't help but be outside most of the afternoon. Noah thought it was so great that he could be outside with no shirt on. We played ball, did sidewalk chalk, played tag, and just had a fun time hanging out together. The boys looked so cute, I had to take a picture! I am sorry for those of you who had snow today, but maybe this will tempt you to move out here with us!!!!!!
