Little Hunter Too

Sarah has taken an interest in Cody's turkey calls lately. This morning she was even wearing his hat while she tried to call in a big gobbler.
Cody wasn't feeling well today, so he slept alot. Sarah took full advantage of his absence and played with all of the things that he normally does not let her touch. She had on his little backpack full of Cars cars and she was trying to shoot his bow. I asked Cody if he thought Sarah might go hunting with Daddy and he said, "Sarah will go hunting with me!"


spring is here!

We try to head outside every day that it is nice. Sarah stands at the door pointing and screaming until we do! She is such a happy little girl. Give her a plastic bag and she can entertain herself for hours!
Today we discovered that she can climb over half way up the rock wall on their playset. I couldn't believe it. She is such a little monkey.

Hands down, though, the winner of the favorite outdoor activity prize is the sandbox. I don't know what it is about sand.....

Easter fun

On Saturday we went to mom's house to celebrate Easter and color eggs. She had 72 eggs for the 4 kids, and they had a blast. Cody sat with Uncle Matt the whole time.
Sarah sat with Grandma. She was a little tentative at first, but by the end she was throwing her eggs in the cups and reaching right in to get them out!




When we went out to hunt the eggs, I put a bonnet on her that I had when I was a little girl. She looked so cute!



Cody really liked running around gathering up eggs. It's amazing how much he changes every year.

Easter pictures

I took Cody and Sarah to get Easter pictures done with the chicks and bunnies thinking that they would really enjoy the animals. To my surprise, they were terrified. Oh well. We didn't get that many pictures, but the ones we did get were pretty good!

Cody is in love with his necktie. He didn't want to take it off when we left.

Sarah, on the other hand, is trying to take everything off. She has started removing her barrettes shortly after I put them in her hair.


This is the only way Cody would be near the bunnies. Even then, when they poked their heads out of the basket he would scream and fly off of the bench. Sarah just wouldn't sit still anywhere. Everything was low enough for her to get right up, so she did.




It looks like he loves his sister!



Even though the kids are not looking in this picture, it is Mike's favorite. After they were done and Cody got up, he was VERY annoyed that he had hay stuck to his pants. What a little neat freak.
