Hoppy Easter

This year I put the boys in matching outfits because I can. Plus don't you think they look so stinking adorable!

I love this face!

My Coach

While putting Coach to bed the other day he was talking to me about the movie Tron. He told me that he did not like Tron. I asked him why not? He put his hand on his chest and started thumping it and said "it makes my heart feel like this when the girls arm gets cut off". So cute he couldn't tell me the emotion he was feeling, but could tell me how it made him feel. We then talked about our feelings for a minute.

On the drive home from St. George we stopped at McDonalds and got the kids Happy Meals. As soon as Coach was done with his meal he promptly ripped the box apart according to the directions to make a hat. Only thing is Coach can't read. Either my boy is super smart and figured the box out on his own or he goes to McDonalds a lot and knew what to do from past experiences. Only Glama Tuzie can answer this as she is Coaches Mickey D's supplier.

Seriously I love my boys!

Somebody had a birthday...

shout hurray. One year older and wiser too. HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU!

Coach is now 4. Happy birthday little man. Your parents love you and enjoy watching you learn and grow each and every day.

Coach at age 4

• He is always up for an adventure
• He adores his older brother and would follow him to the ends of the earth
• He loves Scooby Doo and plays with and holds Scooby any chance he gets
• Coach is very picky about the clothes he wears, I am talking shoes, underwear, everything

My Scooby Doo

You are probably wondering why there are not many pictures and posts about my Scooby Doo. The reason is I am too busy loving on him to take a break and post. When Naph's and I had Ashie we were getting use to the whole parenting thing. We enjoyed baby Ashie very much, but at the same time everything was new and we were learning. By the time Ashie was 21 months old Coach was born. We had two little guys in diapers and we were busy. We loved our boys very much, but didn't have too much time to love on them and adore them as much as we would have loved to. Scooby Doo was born more than 3 1/2 years after Coach, because of the huge gap in age both Ashie and Coach are more self sufficient which gives me more time to love on Scooby. I know now that my boys grow up faster than I can control and I want every minute of Scooby's babyhood to count. So if you excuse me I am off to cuddle with the sweetest little guy in town. I am so very blessed!

My Ashie

The boyz and their super cute cousin miss H.

The other day as we were leaving Glama's house I was talking to Ashie and Coach about the dangers of playing on or near the street at Glama's and Bampa's. I told the boys that when we play in our street the cars do not go very fast and if they were to be hit by a car they would probably only get hurt, but if they were to be hit by a car on Glama and Bampa's street they would most likely be killed. To this Ashie replay's, killed?! Does that mean I wouldn't be a daddy?"

In that same conversation I was talking to the boys about how blessed I am to have three boys. Ashie chimes in saying, "when I am married I am going to tell my honey to give me girls and if that doesn't work I will ask Jesus for them." Adorable! I love the things my kids say!
