We had a very busy birthday weekend....
On Wade's actual birthday (Sunday) we celebrated with our family. All of Luke's family and my parents celebrated with cake and ice cream. I think Wade blew out the candles at least 5 times!! Wade had a great time and had fun playing with his counsins, Faith and Allysen.

Preparing for the Lazy River...don't I look cute??!!
On Saturday we braved the weather and headed to an Easter Egg Hunt!! The weather was horrible, the whole hunt only lasted 10 minutes! Luckily, Wade's name was drawn and he won the grand prize. It was a big Easter basket filled with lots of Army trucks, planes and candy.
When we got home we colored Easter eggs for the first time! Wade was a big helper...he liked dipping his fingers in all of the colors so he ended up with greenish brown looking fingers! I think 3 out of the 6 eggs have already been smooshed!
Lila likes to do anything that Wade is doing...she's getting to be such a big girl! She's just started to scoot around furniture, I'm sure she'll be walking before we know it! It's fun to watch the two of them play together...Lila mimics a lot of Wade's expressions and they like to have "yelling" matches (fun for Mom and Dad :) 
Action Shot!
Hanging out on the treadmill...one of her favorite spots.
It's been a struggle getting Wade to eat lately (probably a sign of the "Terrible Twos!"). He choked a couple of weeks ago on a strawberry and has been hesitant to eat every since. He doesn't forget anything!! We're all hoping he'll start to come around soon...we're all tired of doctor visits!
Lila on the other hand is such a good eater! Her favorite place to sit is the highchair! The only thing she hasn't liked so far is watermelon (odd, I know). She will sit there for almost an hour at mealtime as long as you keep food in front of her!
Wade had his first, probably of many, stiches put in yesterday. He took a hard fall into a bedroom dresser and ended up with 3 stiches in his eyebrow. He is being a champ about it all...he keeps on pointing to the stiches and saying "Boom!"
The stiches haven't slowed Wade down any...he's still up to his antics!
Last weekend the kids and I headed up to my grandma's to celebrate her 90th birthday! She is still living on the farm by herself, gets to town every week, and plays down on the floor with the kids! We are so blessed for her good health and look forward to celebrating many more birthdays! We had a nice time visiting with her friends and also attending my cousin's baby shower.
Last year there were 5 babies born at my work!! They are all fairly close in age with the first one being born in May (Lila) and the last in the first part of October. There were also 2 other babies born on our floor last year too...everyone was saying "Don't drink the water!"
Wade got in on the fun as well! He enjoy some chocolate and playing with the tractors in the office.
Chad and Londyn, Laura and Carlie, Kristin and Brody, Alice and Natlie, and me and Lila
Lila really liked Londyn's hairband...she even pulled it off! I guess we'll have to get her one of her own!
Lila turned 6 months old on Saturday. She has become quite the busy little girl...she is sitting, grabbing everything possible which then goes straight to her mouth and still trying to keep up with her brother. I don't think it will be before long that she is crawling!! What are we going to do with 2 on the move...ahhhh!
