Oh Glade!

Glade is really into anything with guns, knives, swords...well, I guess he is a typical boy!  Here he is dressed up as a knight carrying his gun in a holster! (Don't mind the laundry stuff...we had a little issue with our washer last week:(

Bad guys should be very afraid of this one!

Splash Day

Last week at preschool we had SPLASH DAY!  There were water squirters, toys, sprinklers and a water slide!  At first Addison didn't want to go down the slide, but she quickly warmed up to it!

Candy Land!

Our Preschool Program and graduation was Thursday night.  The theme was CandyLand!  It was so cute to see the little ones sing.  Here are some videos of Glade and Addison.

My brave girl!

Addison has been asking for several weeks to get her ears pierced.  So tonight she finally talked her Daddy into it!  Tim had a hard time watching.  He says she just aged 10 years!  It is so sweet to see him care so much for his baby girl.  Addison was so excited.  She was all smiles.  I could tell once it was done that it hurt, but she held on and did not cry! We walked through several other stores after we got them done and she was telling everyone!   She has already started turning her earrings.  We have caught her several times looking in the mirror.  Tonight she asked for a little mirror so she could see her earrings in her bed. 

Easter at Grammy and Pappy's house

 We spent Easter at Grammy and Pappy's house again this year.  It is such fun.  This year we got to meet their neighbors.  They have twin girls and the mom's name is Leah too!  They came over for dinner and the kids had so much fun playing together.  They played on the slip and slide and were having a blast until Addison and Emily had a head on collision.  It was one of those moments when you see it coming but you can't get the words out fast enough.  Needless to say, Addison was done for the night.  We tried all kinds of things to help her calm down, poor baby it scared her to death.  We put a bandaid on it, dyed easter eggs and still she was upset.  The Easter Bunny must have heard her crying- yes she was that loud- so he hopped on over and left a basket of movies for Glade and Addison.  We settled in to watch Tangled and that seemed to help her calm down.

My uncle Robert proud of his eggs!

 Easter came and the Bunny left Glade and Addison lots of goodies!  We all got dressed and took some pictures and then went to Church.

I have more pictures, but blogger is being picky about them, so I will try again later!

Easter Bunny comes to Preschool!

The annual Easter Egg Hunt at preschool had to be moved inside this year because of rain.  The kids didn't care where it happened, they just wanted to hunt the eggs.  Once they got inside it was so much fun to watch all the kids go hunting.  Glade was pretty picky about which eggs he picked up.  He liked the sports eggs!

 They got to see the easter bunny too!

 I love how Glade and Addison have such good friends.  Most of these kids have been together since they were toddlers.  It is so much fun watching them grow up together.

 Ms Wendy gave them each bunny teeth "pacifiers"  They were a big hit!

You've been egged...

Last year we started a fun Easter tradition to "egg" our friends' houses.  So this morning I put the kids to work filling eggs with candy.  Then we set off on our adventure.  I have to say it was fun this year to see the kids try and be so sneaky!  We got to our first stop and had to keep going because our friends were playing outside.  That really confused the kids, but we went to the next house.  We "egged" this house last year so they knew what to do.  Put out eggs, tape the sign on the door, ring the bell and run...someone forgot to tell mommy to watch out for the step...so being graceful like I am I fell in this front yard.  I am sure NO ONE saw it!  At least that is what I am telling myself.  The kids had lots of fun putting the eggs out and ringing the bell.  Glade was a little sad we couldn't go in our friends house each time.  I call it a success since we didn't get caught this year!
