Noelle's Dinner

One of the things Noelle got to do for Spring Break was choose what we were going to have for dinner and help cook it.  She did a great job cooking a ham and pasta dish and made chocolate fondue for dessert!

 Jared normally won't come anywhere close to a dessert, but since it involved a banana tonight he was willing to try.  He discovered he likes chocolate!

Kyle's 1st Haircut

More of Kyle's baby hair fell out than Noelle and Jared's, but he still had this weird, long patch in the front that needed taking care of.  He liked to twist and pull it out when he was being fed. 

Game Night

Another thing we did for Spring Break was let Noelle choose several games to play.  She had a fun time and there was actually no crying!

This is the smile we now get when we ask for Noelle's real smile.  

Jared

So proud of my football star...who can dress himself...in his sister's shoes...on the wrong feet.  

Same Dress

Here's Sarah at about age 6.

 

For Mimi

Since Chris' grandmother loves snakes so much we know that she will be thrilled to learn that we took her great-grandchildren to the world's largest rattlesnake round-up today.  Noelle & Jared loved seeing the snakes, but Noelle wasn't too keen on having her picture taken with one, and she certainly did not want to touch one!

 

In case you can't tell, Noelle is freaking out!

Kyle got to see the snakes from the baby backpack.

Sibling Pics

One of our children was happy to have her picture taken.  The other child was less than thrilled.  The dress that Noelle is wearing was made by Sarah's mom.  Sarah wore it when she was 5.
