Happy Birthday, Addie!

Happy Birthday to Addie!  She is growing up so fast!  Our Baby Doll is FOUR years OLD!  She is getting SO tall and losing all of her "squishy" baby skin.

On Monday evening, Mommy had a meeting in Rochester and Daddy also had to travel with the kids to the Rochester area to attend calling hours for Uncle Shawn and Auntie Fran's Mom.  All four grandkids were with Grandma Collene for part of the evening.  Thanks, Grandma!


Tuesday:
Happy Birthday, Addie!
Ms Linda gave Addie a Happy Meal for her special day.  Thanks, Ms Linda!


Tuesday afternoon was not as nice as last Tuesday (Ayson's birthday), so instead of playing outside, we played inside: glitter tattoos and games.




Even though Addie opened all of her gifts last week with Ayson, Mommy got both of the kiddos a "funny face" disguise so that Addie would have something new for her actual birthday.


Of course....


Love this picture!


Addie's birthday meal request: pancakes!


and a chocolate chip birthday cake!  Happy Birthday, Addie!  We love you so much!!



Addie talking on the phone to Grandpa Chuck :)


The Honey Bee Tree is always a big hit with the kiddos!  Mommy wishes she recorded some of the laughs from the kids :)








On Wednesday, Mommy helped Addie finish her shamrock (Ayson's afterschool program gave Addie one to decorate too...how thoughtful!)


Happy St Patty's Day!  Ayson picked out his green flannel and Addie's purple outfit had green in the checkered ruffles.

The kiddos posing with the NEW stuffed animals from Grandma Pat and Grandpa Roger!  The kiddos LOVE their new animals, shirts, and the shells!! Thanks for the great gifts, Grandma and Grandpa!


On Saturday, A^4 attended the annual Easter egg hunt in town.


The kids are sent out to hunt eggs in waves with the 5 and under crowd going first.  Addie and Mikhon did a great job collecting eggs!




THEN the big kids were let lose and Ayson had a blast!


TaDa!


After the egg hunt, we played a few games:
Feeding the rabbit


and fishing

On Sunday, Ayson worked on a new robot using his Makedo kit: a dog complete with a wagging tail!


Great job, Big Guy!  and thanks to Grandpa Chuck for all of the pringles cans:)  Mommy had to put the chips from the last 2 cans (Grandpa gave each kiddo their own container of pringles) in ziplocks so that Ayson could have four matching "legs"


Sunday was a bit warmer but that did not stop us from getting out both days...we played at the "little park" and in our backyard.

Ayson catching a little air on Sunday.  Addie wanted to wear her butterfly wings outside...hey, why not?!
