Spring Break Fun

Spring Break came slow and went fast! Why is it that when you want to relax and enjoy your family the times flies?!

Just the same we had so much fun hanging out with Caleb and Emma during spring break. We really didn't do anything too exciting. Actually, we had a surprise visit from Ryan the first weekend of break.

We were excited to have him home for the weekend. Caleb and Emma sure enjoyed playing with him. We spent time at home playing and we also all went to the Discovery Center in Boise. That was so interesting. If you like science then you would really enjoy going there. Even Caleb and Emma watching different things with wonder! HAHA! They look at most things with wonder and amazement so I am sure this was just way too much for them! HAHA!

We got to play outside a couple of days otherwise the weather was not that nice. Most of our time was spent inside playing, watching our favorite sing a long shows and cartoons and wrestling with mommy and daddy on the floor.

Uncle Ron and Aunt Karin sent them the cutest rocking horse, so that entertained them a lot! They enjoy new toys and of course, fight over them a little! :)

This spring break we worked on teaching the kids some sign language to help them communicate with us! Wow! They have caught on so quickly! As of now, they know the following signs: more, please, light, and eat. They are still working on cracker, cookie, thank you, blanket, apple, milk and baby. I hope that this will help lessen the frustration of communicating with us. I know I am thankful for it! It means less crying and fits, because they can tell us what they want.

We are counting down to summer! Only 38 school days until summer vacation. We are going to sign Caleb and Emma up for swimming lessons in July. We planning a trip to the zoo. Also, I am hoping to get to go play at lots of different parks in the area. We are not traveling anywhere, but maybe a couple close camping trips. Camping will be a whole new experience for the kiddos. I hope they love it as much as we do! They love being outside, so I am sure it will be fun.

I am going to start checking out garage sales for some outdoor climbing toys for the backyard. Caleb and Emma always want to climb on stuff in the house and we don't let them. And outside we already have a small slide, which they LOVE!!! So hopefully I can find so more outdoor toys. Until we can afford a nice swig set for the back yard that kind of stuff will have to do.

Enjoy the new pics!
