Slurpee Time

There were no 7-11's in Milwaukee so we were so excited to discover one here because we have missed Slurpees :) Unfortunately it is in a rather sketchy part of town so I am not sure we'll be back there again anytime soon. But I love how something as simple as a Slurpee can bring so much happiness....

Bunnies, birthdays and more

Easter - Connor's birthday - Mother's Day. This sums up our last three weekends. We have been busy, but luckily it's the best kind of busy :)


Kate wanted to wear her Easter dress even though she wasn't able to go to church (she had a bit of a fever that day....)

The biggest egg in our Easter egg hunt...



Connor's birthday was a three day celebration that included a friend party, family party, and a classroom celebration (whew!) We decided to scale WAY down this year with the friend party so we had Connor pick 4 friends he'd like to take to Wonderlab and then we had cake and ice cream back at the house. It was heavenly to have such a low-key party - none of this sewing hats and making 3 pinatas and coordinating two hours worth of games for 10 five-year-olds (what were we thinking last year??)


Wonderlab is great entertainment for kids this age (and adults too!)

Cake and ice cream with Phineas and Ferb :)


Mother's Day was wonderful. How could it not be when I have kids that are this cute?!?

Owen's Mother's Day gift to me is that he has started crawling. I'm not sure if that is a good gift or not.
