A visit from II

II came for a visit on Thursday afternoon and Friday morning. (i have to laugh that the 1st think I can think about is we had steak for dinner Thursday and homemade french toast on Friday morning!) In any case, it was really warm out and the boys had fun playing with their trains in the porch. Poor Vaughn, Brock was insisted that the door from the porch to the kitchen remain shut at all times. It gave II and me a laugh, because he would be in the middle of the porch and run frantically to close it. Thank goodness not on his fingers...not to say it wasn't close a few times. Vaughn had learned how to make "library books" this week in school. He and II had a good time drawing buildings, trees, stoplights, birds you name it on a piece of paper to tell a good story. Vaughn (and II) certainly have active imaginations!

Both Vaughn and Brock enjoyed looking at their old baby pictures too! (so did mommy...hard to believe they are so big)

I love you Cousin...give me a hug....i'm a vampire!

We had a great Easter. I went to church and then we went to brunch at my all time favorite place....Signature Cafe! Afterwards, we went to the witches tower to take pictures. Luke apparently needed more to eat and his cousin looked like the best snack! :) I can't believe he didn't want to have the french toast. (sidenote - Brock refused to try the french toast - makes no sense since he has a french toast muffin everyday) Watch out Brocker........

Brocker the tough guy

This week I got a call from childcare about Brock...the 1st of many I am sure! The day before the call I was talking to his teacher and she said that he was taking off his socks and shoes alot. I thought it must be time for new shoes. We looked at his size 6 and discovered they were too small. We had some 7 1/2 that looked like they would work for him. The next day I spoke to his teacher and he had tripped on the playground and hit his cheek. After a little TLC and ice (chich I guess he was more upset about the ice than the bruise - sounds like Brock) he took his nap and woke up with a black eye. It doesn't seem to slow him down at all...it just looks awful - just in time for Easter pictures! :)
