Happy Easter!

Chase turns 2

This is Chase, the baby. He turned 2 on March 28th. We celebrating his birthday by filling a large dumpster with in inordinate amount of trash laying around our backyard. I felt a little bad, but between the need to reschedule the rented dumpster to his special day, and a sick sister, we really didn't do anything fun. I guess when you are two, helping mom and dad in the backyard isn't the worst way to spend the day. We had a birthday party the next week and I made the mistake of having Sean take the pictures; so - there are no pictures of the cupcakes, Mickey Mouse cookies, balloons, or decorations. He did catch a picture of us holding a box, and of my son sitting in his seat waiting for his cupcake. The last picture was taken of the two boys playing with Chase's new trike. It was bad weather, so they rode it around the house, James even shared a little.

Day at the Museum

We had a busy, fun day. It started at the Doctors for a yearly check-up, both boys are healthy. We then met Sean for a picnic lunch downtown. Getting there was no fun, parking is hard to come by and Sean only has an hour for lunch so we wasted about 15 minutes of it trying to find a spot to park. After the picnic at Temple Square Plaza, we headed to the museum for the free day - me and every other mother in the state of Utah. It was crowded, but free, so I can't complain too much. I forgot the stroller so the visit didn't last as long as we had wanted. The upside was I left with the same number of children I arrived with, and since I was missing one at nearly all times, it was a success. We ended the day attending Emily's piano concert, in which she played beautifully. We then ate at Five Guys Burgers because it was a special occasion.
