Playing Catch Up

WARNING, WARNING, WARNING...picture overload!!

 My flexible little one.  I found him like this and it was funny because he was in such a position that he kept banging his head against the wall.

 Jimmer loves being read to and Ava is getting so good at reading.  When Jimmer can pay attention long enough these are the precious moments that I find.  

 This is the picture that I used when I entered Jimmer in the Gap Casting Call contest.  Of course every mom thinks her baby is the cutest, but come on...look at that face!!

 We finally put Ava into swimming lessons and she is loving it.  We put her in private lessons because we thought that the one on one interaction would be a lot more beneficial where she has never taken lessons before.  Now she might not be scared to get her face wet in the shower.  

 Little Lillian climbing into Jimmer's toy basket.  She is about half the size of Jimmer, but she can move a whole lot faster.  This little girl can pull herself up on anything and moves around a room like a ninja.  

For Easter this year we went to Kamloops to celebrate the holiday with Theresa, Randy and their boys. Allan, Danielle and their family came as well and we had so much fun all being together.  Theresa is the perfect hostess and made sure that the whole weekend was just perfect.  Saturday we went to the Wildlife park where the kids went on an Easter egg hunt and got to go on a train ride all around the park.  Ava loved being with her Auntie Theresa 24-7.  Ava, Emma and Walker were her little shadows for the entire weekend.

Easter morning...after the Easter bunny had visited us.  

A week after we got back from Kamloops Shane had a course in Cranbrook for work.  Because Cranbrook is only about 3 hours from Stirling Jimmer and I stayed at my parents house for the week.  It was such a well needed break away from Hinton and we had a great time with Grandma and Grandpa. Jimmer was so happy the entire week and loved going out for walks with Grandma.  Anytime he would see kids or puppies he would start screaming at them.  

Having fun with Great Grandpa Nilsson!  Grandpa brought Jimmer lots of candy, so he warmed right up to him.  

He loved to stand up to the window and suck on the glass.

Visiting Grandpa at work.  He played shy with Grandpa when we first arrived, but by the end of the week they were best buddies.  The chair below is the new brutus chair that they got new at the store.  It's for very, very large people.  My feet wouldn't even touch the ground when sitting in it.    

 

Grandma and Jimmer had so much fun together and it didn't take long at all for them to become best friends.  Thanks for everything mom!!  We had such a great week and Shane and I even got to go on a date.  I spent the week reading the Hunger Games, so we were able to go see the movie which we both loved.
