I think I will just be a follower...

Okay... I have come back to this as a backup in case I don't make it back to facebook... That way I can at least be able to come on and look at other peoples pictures, etc. I also linked the shutterfly site... I usually upload all the pictures from the previous month- so I'll probably just continue to do it that way...

Maybe it's the nice weather....

But for some reason, my camera has made it out lots more lately! :)

We just got a membership to the MN Zoo last week, so I suspect there will be a lot of trips there this summer! :) Erin went with the kids and me on Friday. On Sunday, we had a very laid back Easter. Erin came over and we had brunch (crepes- yum!). We walked to the park and played with the kids too.


And I finally got the kids in for their professional pics! So, I will post a few on here too.

Apparently I am not too good at keeping up with a blog! Oh well- Maybe 1x a month is really good enough!

Christian and Ellie had lots of fun with their aunts and cousins here. They took some pictures, so maybe one day I will get some copies and post them in here too! :)

My trip to Vegas was nice. I got to see just about every casino on the strip. We went to a show, and pigged out at the Wynn Saturday brunch buffet :)

I am having a hard time realizing that Christian is already 3 years old. Wow- looking back, time has flown... Don't ask me about that during the temper tantrums though ;)

I am also wondering why I thought that Ellie was going to be a sweet QUIET little girl?! I am also starting to fear that she may never want to play Barbie Dolls with me and instead might be a tomboy... Hmmmm I guess time will tell!

Life has been quite crazy for us with the flood fighting in Fargo. Dennis was activated and we were staying with my sister, then the kids and I went to my parents for a week, then back to Chris' through the weekend. We just got back here and now it's already Easter this weekend.... Needless to say, I am not really in the traveling mood... We shall see. I think the kids need a little bit of stability too...

Thank goodness for Thomas the Train and Friends. Currently, they are Christian's favorite past time. He is constantly asking if he can get a new wooden friend. But he does really seem to enjoy them. He plays with them for hours a day

Ellie is just a busy body. She is constantly getting into everyones stuff and is currently in the screaming phase (I hope it's just a phase).

Catching Up!

Well, apparently it is not a concern (yet) that I will become addicted to this! First of all, I must remember that it is necessary to take my camera with when we do things! I think just getting the diaper bag ready is so much that I forget the camera until we get there and it's too late :(

We went back to Gully/Mac the end of February and spent time with our families. No camera, so no pictures....

Then this past weekend, we were quite busy. On Friday, we were invited over to Dennis' aunt June's for supper. We stayed and visited with her family until about 11:30pm. And on Saturday, we went to the model train museum in St. Paul. Again, no camera! Christian had lots of fun looking at all the model trains. He even got to control some Thomas and Percy trains and received a little certificate. The museum also had 4 train tables set up with lots of Thomas and his Friends to play with--- I wish I had brought purell LOL! I carried Ellie in the Ergo on my back- she seemed to enjoy herself, because she didn't fuss too much! After being at the museum for a little over an hour, we decided that was enough time spent there... We went over to Kim and Chris' and enjoyed our time with them!

Tomorrow, Jennifer, Hannah, Nathan, and Stephanie are supposed to come down and stay through Saturday. I will be going to Vegas with my sister, Erin. They are planning on going to Nick World at the MOA and the Children's Museum in St. Paul. Hopefully they will take lots of pics and email me some so I can post them on here ;)
