Uncle Nik has been in town for the last 2 weeks. He's been on leave and we've spent most of his visit being lazy. This week we decided to get out, though, and we took the kids to the Children's Museum. The kids had fun =)

They weren't sure what the projector was supposed to do but they sure did try to figure it out.



They really liked this cow





Mini grocery store. I think this was their favorite part of the day.





Trying to pull themselves up. For the record, I pulled them up and they held themselves up for the picture.









Looking at the baby chicks



POOP



They really enjoyed the dirt, too.



We've graduated from bottles to sippy cups! She was such a good sport about being in the stroller most of the time, too.













Everyone was so exhausted that they came home and did this:





We went to Space Center yesterday and that was pretty fun.





Testing his strength. We're pretty sure it was rigged =-p





Inside the Skylab. He's pointing to the man doing somersaults.



This pretty much sums up Nik's week



Once again, being a good sport about being strapped in



Moon rocks





Daddy was able to meet up with us during his lunch hour because he was doing some work at Space Center =)

Cowbaby




Easter wasn't too busy this year. The kids got their baskets early in the morning and then we went to church. After church we went out to lunch and then we all came back home and tried desperately to battle food coma. I think I may have been the last one standing.





Gilbert's mom managed to find a frog shaped Easter egg and a frog shaped gummy



Elise trying on Mommy's boots



Pretty girls





Of all the seating options in the house these two are always happiest to sit together. I love it.



Game day!







The only picture I got of the 3 of them together





Up next: a really, really long post with lots of fun pictures =)

Viviana's camera face



We're not always able to get a full on belly laugh out of Viviana. Matthew was able to the other day using a pool noodle. Here's her goofy little laugh =)

Pulling up! Way to go, baby girl!



So generally kids will color a picture or make some kind of craft in class when we go to church. In this case they put together a donkey. Most kids decorated their donkeys with crayons. My boy decided that his needed only a single piece of tape to make it special. I love him.

We're in for a busy, busy weekend!
