Viviana's baby blessing

My dad and Susan came into town for the Viviana's baby blessing.  We went on a picnic at City Park the night before we blessed her.  

Valentina is eating an ice cream sandwich and could not be happier.

Viviana got to wear the same dress as Valentina.  Made by my mom,  Mimi.

Qui Que is really good at getting Viviana to smile.

Qui Que is holding a stick as usual.

Oh look, I made it into a picture :)

Flying a kite

You might be wondering if these children have a mom.  Yes, they do.  She is just the only one that knows how to work the camera.

Tulip Festival in Pella round 2

We love the tulip festival so much last year we had to go again this year.  This year we met our friends the Weeds out there.  The weather was a lot nicer this year.  Nicer weather = more people, more people = random people in the background of all the pictures.  Here are a few of the favs

Ok- one, two, three everybody smile and look at me!  Thanks Madeline.

We took one in this same spot last year.  This time it didn't turn out as good.

Enjoying the homemade ice cream.

The kids thought the snow cones looked good, then they realized they were cold.

After the 4th time of Enrique telling her to put her shirt down this is what you get.

Spring is here!

This picture makes me happy.  Qui Que found this special place this winter.  Every morning as the heater kicked on and started to warm the house he would lay on his tummy and stick his feet back by the heater to warm up.  Later Valentina caught on.  I loved watching them crammed into that little space.

Valentina is caught in the act.  She is always picking on Qui Que and he always takes it.  He is so sweet.  Teeny is lucky to have such a gentle brother.

We had a little Easter Egg hunt with our mom school kids.  The kids loved it!

Easter morning.  The kids favorite thing in their Easter basket- fruit snacks.

Thanks to our camera stand and self timer we got a family picture.

Can you guess which one didn't want to cooperate?

Favorite Spring time activity so far- collecting rocks and putting them in buckets.

Our sweet little angel is two months!  She is such a good baby.  She has been sleeping 10 hours a night since she was 4 weeks old.  I love this little bobbin.
