Never a dull moment. (WARNING~Mega Picture Overload!)

These kids are non stop!!!  They don't have an off button until bedtime.  I swear I forgot what it was like having  smaller kids around all the time.

Easter was sooo much fun this year.  The innocence of childhood is such a blessing! It was so much fun to watch them do the bunny's scavenger hunt for their baskets, decorating eggs, and a fabulous family dinner.  I love Easter!!

We also took the kids on a fabulous trip to Calgary.  We took them to a Calgary Flames game.  And to the zoo!!  Our hosts were great!  The kids loved meeting their Aunts and Uncles that weekend.  The highlight....when Uncle Patch showed up to surprise Star A!!  He drove over 10 hours and overnight just to surprise her.  It was AMAZING to watch!  She cried, he cried, I cried, Auntie J cried...... And the little 2 couldn't figure out what all the fuss was because they had not meet him before.  

Besides all this....family suppers out, movies, sleepovers, playgrounds, and tons of play time.  Our bigger family is definitely a great one!  I can't imagine our lives any other way.  The kids are following the "adjustment" to our family just like the textbook.  I swear its a good thing we took our parenting classes, otherwise we wouldn't have been prepared.  We've gone through the honeymoon phase, and now the testing the limits phase.  Hopefully that means things will level out shortly.  The bonus.  Even if they are bad, and go to bed early....the next morning they get up, tell us they love us and vise versa, and the new day starts.
