Is it summer yet?!?

We've had a lot of really nice weather recently, which is making us all very excited for summer.  The boys are ready to go outside as soon as they wake up in the morning and will stay out until we make them come in.  Here's a few fun pics...

One of Finn's favorite activities, and words - BUBBLES...
 I think he probably says "bubble" about 100 times a day.  Everything round is a bubble :)

And Max is just excited to have all of his outdoor stuff to play with again...



Finn's climbing skills are still very limited (mostly by me :)), but he can't wait to be climbing with Max...

Funny little guy

So, the other day at lunch, I could not get Finn to eat anything (even though I knew he was hungry).  I tried numerous different food choices, and he refused everything.  Until...



...I served it up in his favorite Matchbox truck - his whole sandwich was gone in minutes :)  Now, about every 2-3 days, he insists on eating his food out of this truck.  He also demands other toys to eat off of - today it was his new rubber duckie.  Crazy kids.  :)

Disney on Ice

Max and I had a wonderful double date two of weeks ago - out to dinner and Disney on Ice.  It was the 100 years of Disney show, so it was little pieces from the most popular Disney movies over the last 100 years.  In other words, not too princess-y :)  We went with my friend Carrie and her son Elliott, and Max LOVED it (despite the expression on his face in this picture)!



He hasn't stopped talking about it since we went, and his favorite part was The Lion King (which he has never seen before).  Now, as a result, we own the movie and watch it everyday, sometimes twice.  In particular, he LOVES the part with Hakuna Matata (very good choice in my opinion :)).

Hippity Hoppity...

Happy Easter!  We've had non-stop Easter fun for the last 2 days.  Saturday morning, we had an Easter Egg Hunt and brunch with all of our neighbors in the park across the street.  I had to hold Max back from grabbing the eggs before it started...



But, soon enough they were off to hunt for eggs...

Max was pretty excited to show off all of his eggs...

Finn just wanted to hold onto the eggs instead of keeping them in his basket.  He kept saying, "ball, ball," and wanting to play with the eggs...



Once it was all over, Finn was happy to check out the stash...


And then on Sunday, Max was so excited about the Easter bunny that we were lucky he slept until 6:15am.  As soon the boys were up, he started searching for his basket which the Easter bunny hid inside the house.  He was very excited to find both his and Finn's baskets...

...Which were filled with presents...


And even MORE chocolate!


We had some friends over for brunch, and of course, another Easter Egg Hunt!  By this time, Max was a pro at finding eggs, and finding them fast...

Max found an egg at the top of the slide and didn't let the slide slow him down :)

Finn didn't care too much about the eggs (he thankfully still doesn't really know what candy is), but he was happy to play outside...

Happy Easter!!!
