April...

Oh how I love this time of year in St. George!  It is the perfect weather to spend lots of time outside..... so that's what we did! Lincoln loves our dirt backyard. 
 Two cute naked kids!
 Baseball season started!
 Here Norah wasn't so sure of the grass.   So Pops came and saved the day.
 I did a fun hike with my Young Woman to Snow Canyon. It always amazing me with it's beauty!
 Lincoln sharing his ice cream--- Norah didn't mind one bit!
 Hot day at the park!

 This was the first time we went to the splash pad--- Andrew and Lincoln weren't quite sure what to do.
 We have Loved having Andrew over every Thursday while Izzy is teaching class.  These two cute boys keep me busy and are so fun! Here they are making sure our lawn is green and trimmed.
We all LOVE to ride bikes.  It is a daily activity--- Lincoln rides his bike while I push Norah up to Nana and Pops house to say hi.  On Thursdays, Andrew started bringing his bike so he could ride as well.  
 Usually they do pretty good but sometimes they get tired and want to get in the stroller(especially up the big hill). So there have been times when I get quite the workout going up the hill. 2 little boys, 1 little girl, and both their bikes all in the stroller. haha.
 On one of our rides they found this cute little miniature gnome village.  They loved looking at it and didnt want to leave.
 Once we get to Nanas we usually visit and play for a hour or so. Before we leave it usually ends with a "Poki" stick or two.  (They are flavored cracker sticks that Nana and Pop's got from Thailand.) Norah likes the Pizza ones and Andrew and Lincoln usually request the strawberry and chocolate ones.  It is usually my bribery to get them headed back to our house.
 We always enjoy when we get together for dinner with cousins. Here is the little boy table.
 And here is Nana's birthday cake!  Lets just say that I don't think that Nana got a chance to blow her candle out. She had way too many helpers!  We love Nana!
 Norah has really started to LOVE all kids of foods this month. Pretty much anything you put in front of here she scarfs down..... and best news is that she finally got a tooth!! our little one year old got her first tooth! Yay!
 She also has started walking quite well. Still a little uneasy on her feet but she is started to be more confident.
 Lincoln and Andrew are learning to share. They both wanted to ride on Dusty--- so they decided to ride together.
 Oh and this picture is awesome right-- haha not.  But I wanted to document that we got a video monitor to put in the kids room. I have been wanting one in forever because we havnt been very successful at putting the kids to sleep at the same time cause they just play. So I wanted to know when one of them was really asleep so I could put the other one in... Also during Lincoln's quiet time he is always doing something interesting... so now I can check in on him. It is actually quite entertaining and funny to watch the things they do behind closed doors.
We also made it to Pine Valley one weekend to do some clean-up. These boys love the tractor.
 Andrew and Lincoln testing out the new horse tire swing.
 Lincoln and Norah loved the little galoshes!
We also had a great and busy Easter--- a whole post to come will be about that!
