Easter

Easter, like every other holiday (except your anniversary), is exponentially better with kids!




This clip does not do justice to Kohler's excitement for the easter egg hunt to start. He was putting all of his 26 pounds into getting out of Rhett's hold. Apparently we are bad parents because we just let Kohler run off to fend for himself while all of the other parents were helping their kids. Or maybe we are good parents because we rigorously trained him for the big day with at least ten practice egg hunts during the 2 days previous to the big event.




This movie does do justice to Cannon's excitement- once he got an egg in each hand he could have cared less about any of the other treats that conveniently surrounded him.

Cannon is 1!

Cannon is 1! Wow that was one fast year. Just over one year ago I was scared to death wondering what I would do with another little guy and so intrigued at the idea that another person with his own new set of traits and quirks would be part of our family. Now, as they say, I can't imagine life without him.

Cannon is awesome. He is so fun-loving and easy going. He loves to snuggle. Cannon idolizes Kohler- Cannon's first word was car because that was all that was coming out of Kohlers mouth at the time. Cannon loves to play and rough house. He loves rocking out to music. What a cute little squeak!

Cannon had a monster infestation at his birthday party!

The kids made their own monster masks so that they could be in disguise. Kohler's only request was that his should have a tractor on it.


This just makes me laugh.


Googly-eyed monster cake.


Cannon thoroughly enjoyed his personal cake... all 2 bites!
