Stair Climber

It amazes me how much the boys change daily. Axel has a new word or saying and Abel has been learning new things all the time. Axel has been in to Star Wars and super hero's lately. He loves watching the movies and has a blast playing with his light saber (in his undies which is super cute). Axel had his end of year conference for pre-school. It's crazy how much he has learned in a year. He knows how to count to 16 and some times 20, he knows (by looking) most of his letters and can write his name. The teacher also said that he interacts well with other kids and adults but he can be a distraction sometimes because he gets chatty! I think that was a part of my school conferences every year :)
Abel has been starting to get really daring. He pulls up to standing on every thing (even the tiny end table that wobbles) and today he decided that he wanted to climb the stairs. There is no space in the house that is safe right now! He has no fear. Now I have to teach him how to turn around and climb down the stairs-backwards not face first. Abel also has learned how to make truck noises-my next video :), you know the sound like vroom! It's really cute-he is such a little boy.  I've been getting video camera happy lately but I think some times I forget about video's and just take pictures.

Abel

Here are a few shots from Abel's 9 month pictures.







I can't believe how much my little boy has grown. He continues to change every day.

Happy Easter

Happy late Easter to every one! We had a great day. Cooked a beautiful ham and oven roasted garlic mashed potatoes! Yummy. (I think Axel ate a peanut butter sandwich) kids.....
We stayed in our PJ's all day. Had a egg hunts-inside-because we got more snow on Easter! I was not impressed but a lot of people in the state was excited because we broke the snow record-some thing like 132 inches of snow this year! Thankfully it has been around 50 degrees all this week and things are really melting! I was VERY excited to see grass.
Axel didn't care that the egg hunt was inside. He even did good sharing the eggs with his brother-of course it was nice that he got all the candy this year.
Next year Abel you can have your eggs full of candy too!

Axel had a party at Preschool also. He also had real eggs that hatched at school! They got to hold the brand new baby chicken. I didn't bring my camera(the one day I forget it). Maybe his teacher will send me a copy of the one she took. Axel thought the baby chicken was very cute and soft.

Blue berries

Look at this silly little one! First time trying blue berries. He seems to like them and of course they are nice and messy!
Here Mom....I can share!
Yeah blue berries! I think trying new food is so much fun.
And a double bath after the new snack. Axel wasn't to sure about sharing his bath toys.

Abel has been suffering a never ending cold. He has had a runny nose and cough for it seems like weeks. The coughing has been getting really bad at night. We brought him into the doctor's today and of course.....he has an ear infection. (on the left side) I hope he starts to feel better. Poor buddy.
