Crazy Lives

So, for the past few days our house has become virtually unlivable. We're having the inside painted, most of the big rooms, living room, kitchen etc., and had to move out for a while so it can just get done! I have to say it's been tough without a kitchen with a baby and toddler, but we are managing and seems a bit like camping in the basement. Our laundry room is now a pseudo-cucina. Things are looking great and finally coming together. Our house should be ready to sell in a couple of weeks...so exciting.
We had a family "vacation" in newberg last week. We stayed with Bruce and Joni while work was being done on our house. Nathan and I even got to go out on a date! Evelyne had tons of fun playing with her cousins and we enjoyed seeing Nathan's new workplace and meeing some people. It was also nice being able to see him during the light of day!
Depending on how things go this week, we may be back on "vacation" in Newberg again.

A few more good photos...

Easter Crafts

Had to include some photos of the easter egg coloring craft. We are deep into crafts these days. This year the eggs were decorated with princess stickers....sorry Gilbert, you can pick something next year.

Adventures of a Sushi girl

Sushi has become a new favorite for us...especially since i'm on a diet. Here's evelyne using her own chopsticks, of which she's very proud, and eating sushi with mom & dad.

Easter Eggs

My two little eggs...well at one time they were...
We had a great Easter starting with church in the morning, brunch with Grandpa Bruce and Nana Joni and family and dinner with Grandpa Larry and Grandma Gigi and family.
Easter has become a favorite holiday for Evelyne, not only does she get to get little gifts, color easter eggs, and visit with both sets of grandparents and cousins....she gets to dress up and wear something in her favorite color....blue. This year we had to find a blue dress and blue shoes to match. Luckily it wasn't too difficult. Gilbert is growing so quickly and almost sitting up by himself. He sports two bottom teeth and smiles a lot, especially at his big sister.
