Whoa!

Well this weekend we painted the inside of our house. No more individual colors for each room. They ALL look the same now. I miss my purple room. :( Anyway, Cor's mom came down to help us out and get it all done in 2 days. Boy were we tired! :) But we got it done! Yea! Thanks for all the help Mum! :) Also, thanks to our WONDERFUL friends who helped us out by taking our boys for two days, and our other friends who took them another evening so we could get their rooms put back together. :) You guys are the BEST and we owe you both BIG time!! :)

On Easter the boys went in the back yard and did an Easter Egg hunt. They loved it. Once Jovin realized that there was candy in the eggs, he proceeded to just open the eggs he collected already to get the candy out.





On Monday since we got all the painting done Mum and I took the boys to the zoo. It was fun. They have a new splash park there and the boys LOVED it! It has a little wade river going around the whole thing then the little fountains, but the really cool part was the cave. It has slides that go from the outside to the inside, then from the inside to the outside. It has a waterfall inside and stalagmites, and stalactites too. It's pretty cool.






I know I already posted pics of me and the boys on the carousel from the last post, but MY mom said I looked like I didn't have any hair. (I do it was pulled back in a ponytail.) So these are mainly for her so she can see that YES, I am still blonde and I do have hair and it is getting longer. :) Enjoy Mom. :)

Two Kids and the Zoo...

Last Friday I took Jovin and Mayer to the zoo. Oh, boy was that fun. :) Jovin does really well staying near me and I never have to chase after him anymore. So I put Mayer in the stroller, it was almost nap time anyway so I figured he'd sleep in the stroller. Boy was I wrong. He wanted to walk around like Jovin. So I figured if I let Mayer walk around for a while he'll get really tired and want to ride in the stroller. Wrong again! He walked the whole time we were at the zoo. :) He stayed near me and held hands with Jovin too. It was really cute.


They went and played on the little playground they had there. It was cute, I think they did that longer than the time we spend looking at animals. :)


We got to ride on the carousel too. It was pretty windy there and they closed it after our ride. I'm glad they waited until we rode, cause I promised the boys we'd ride it before we left the zoo. :)
It was fun, we missed Cor and Pierce they were spending some time at home. :) We'll take them with us next time. :)

On the way home we got stuck in traffic. It was really upsetting to Jovin. He kept telling me to go faster and move into another lane so we could go faster. I'm a little concerned about when he gets to the age to drive. I think he'll have some road rage problems. :) This is a pic of him yelling at the drivers around us to "Get out of my Momma's way!" (Isn't he sweet!)

Then the last 20 minutes home they both crashed. :) Ah, the quiet part of the trip. :)

Sunday Best

It's not that often that I can get a picture of the boys, all dressed up and cute, before we rush out the door to get to church on time. Actually, Cor took these pictures while I was trying to finish getting ready. Aren't they handsome!?! I'm not sure why Pierce is fully dressed and in the baby tub, you'll have to ask Cor about that. :)
