Well, we had quite the interesting and busy spring break! It started with my mom having a knee replacement surgery. She is a rockstar and it was no surprise she came through just fine and is recovering faster than expected (at least that's what I think, I'm sure she'd like to go even faster)!
Isaac celebrated Easter with a spring party at preschool
Josh and I took turns rotating through mom's house staying with her pretty much 24/7 for the first week or so. We had a lot of other help too, including a dinnertime visit from Philie!
Monday, March 26th, Mr. Noah turned 10! We started (bright and early as usual) with some gifts!
He chose to spend the day with his buddies, the Worsts, for a special spring break get together!
Mike and I gave him a new smartwatch that allows us to text him and him to call a few select numbers. This is his gateway to eventually getting a phone. So far, so good!
Monday night we celebrated with a cookie cake!
Even though the spring break weather was crummy, we found some time to go out for ice cream.
We also went over and helped out Bamma too. Isaac is a great hair washer!
Emily is a good seat warmer!
We also did a little Easter celebration with egg decorating.
Easter morning our bunnies awoke to some baskets with some treats!
We went to Bamma's house for the traditional basement egg hunt!
Noah lost a tooth in a jellybean!
We had a small celebration for Uncle Josh (since his actual birthday will be when we do Mike's big 40th party).
Our eggs turned out pretty awesome this year!
Isaac helped me out by making egg salad, he was quality control.
Our tortoise, Barry, has been doing very well in his first month with us. He is a little more active these days, though he still spends a large portion of his time out of sight.
Isaac is our future surgeon and while he couldn't be present to see Bamma get her staples out, he was able to watch via FaceTime. He even ate lunch while he watched!
Isaac got all handsome for his preschool graduation pictures, can't wait to see how they turn out!
This past weekend, we had Noah's friend birthday party. Mike wasn't able to make a homemade cake due to work, but Dairy Queen came through with a pokeball cake.
Isaac was happy to get some tiny squigs from the Worsts and he showed Uncle Stan just how they worked.
Our party group was a nice small mix of old friends and new friends, everyone had a great time!
Happy 10th Birthday, Noah!
Mike is in charge of assisting Noah and his friends with a science fair project. The party was the perfect time to practice some of his experiments. His audience looks thrilled.
Today, Sam worked hard to get his "All about Me" poster ready for school. I hope his friends in 1st grade like it!
So, Noah's birthday was a success, and now we're off to (gulp) Mike's 40th!!!
