Avery's 1st Dance Recital

Avery had her first dance recital the end of May. She was adorable and did a lot more on stage than I thought she would. I volunteered to sit with the girls in the audience until it was time for them to go on stage. When we walked the girls out to the auditorium Avery leaned over to me pointed to the stage and said "Mom is that where I have to do my dance." I encouraged her that it was gonna be so much fun and how exciting it would be. She did great and of course I was one proud mama!

Mothers Day 2011

It took us awhile to get a picture where we were all looking. What you can't see is I am tickling Madyx to get him to smile. I had an amazing Mothers Day. Matt made brunch reservations at The Hilton Garden Inn. We went there last year too. It was good... a little chaotic because they were unorganized but we still had tons of fun. Matt and the kids got me a big picture of the kids blown up on Canvas to go over the fireplace. Avery picked out some nail polish and a cute summer dress for me too! I <3 it! I am so thankful to be the Mother to these two children. They bring so much joy and happiness into my life.

Easter Egg Hunt

We had Easter brunch at our house and had a huge easter egg hunt! Matt and I filled over 200 eggs and all the adults hid them. It was a lot of fun and awesome to be with our family.

Easter Baskets

The kids Easter baskets were so much fun. We led jelly bean trail from their bedroom doors to their baskets. They loved it!

Coloring Eggs

The kids loved coloring Easter eggs. Madyx thought they were balls so he would throw them in the dye....it got a little messy! They were both still under the weather but it was still a lot of fun!

Sick Days

Sick Day...Avery and Madyx both caught a stomach/fever

bug and this is how we spent the day. Towels and blankets on

floor and lots of toys!! Yuck!

Madyx puked but couldn't hold still so he still played just

a little quieter.... ;-)
