OKAY EVERYONE!!!!

I will try to do much better at keeping up the blog for all of you that have complained at me lately! I know I don't do much and have plenty of time on my hands to play on the computer, but I am lazy!! Just joking! I am hoping that I will have much more energy soon!!

Miscellaneous Pictures





















He would not wear one of these when I wanted him too because it was cold out, now he wears it all the time (the hat not the boxers!). And no, we don't usually play outside in our underwear!

"What was the animal on the Chinese calander the year I was born?"
Caleb knows more about the Chinese calander than I do!! He asked Paul this out of the blue yesterday!

The Incredibles Story

It just dawned on me that many of you don't know the story of the Incredibles on Ice. It is not the same storyline exactly as the movie. Okay this is it (quick version!):
After saving the world in the movie, the Incredibles go into witness protection program. They take a vacation to Disney World. While at Disney World, Syndrome kidnaps Mickey and Minnie Mouse. The Incredibles, of course, have to safe everyone. The show is pretty much them trying to save the Mouse's, which of course they do!

The Incredibles

Okay, okay!! After many complaints, I am finally getting around to blogging about the trip we took to see the Incredibles on Ice. The boys loved it!!! When we got there, Daddy bought drinks for everyone, nachos and cotton candy. I am not sure what Daddy was thinking though, because drinks=potty+potty+potty. Yes that is the number of times we got up to go to the potty during the two hour show. Why is this the way it always works? Isaac, about 20-30 minutes into the show started saying he had to go and couldn't wait. Of course, we are in the middle of the aisle so we have to climb over other people to get out. Because of this, I asked the other two if they needed to go and they said no. About 45-50 minutes into the show, Bryce said he needed to go and could not wait. So this time I told Caleb he had to at least try. They get back just in time for the intermission. Oh well, we missed the bathroom crowd!

I asked the boys if they needed to go one more time before the show started again and they all said no. The show finally started again and about 10 minutes (literally 10 minutes!) into the second half I hear "Mommy I got to potty and I can't wait!" Isaac tells me as he is dancing around. "You are going to have to wait - I just asked you!" After about 5 minutes of him telling me he could not wait and me telling him he would have to wait or have an accident, he quit telling me. I hoped for the best, but expected the worse!

All during the show Bryce sat in Paul's lap and yelled at Syndrome. They got these little wristbands that have buttons that light it up. Bryce kept pointing his at the stage and trying to kick and punch the bad guys! It was hilarious and everyone around us was laughing at him. He turned to Paul a couple of times and told him that he needs to go on stage and help the Credibles. It was funny to see him react the same to the live show as he did to the movie.

Caleb really enjoyed the show, but he did not say much. He really liked it when they turned on the black lights He was pointing out all of the people wearing white that were glowing.

It was so much fun for all of us. When the show was over and Mickey and Minnie had been rescued by the Incredibles, it took us a little while to get out of the arena. On the way out Isaac started saying he needed to potty again. The lines for the bathroom were awful so I told him he would have to wait. We got out to the car and I was getting his brother in the car and turned around to see him not waiting! He pulled his pants down (with all the people walking by us) and went potty! At least he did not do it in his pants!

Easter Egg hunt




The Rest of Easter Weekend

About 2 on Saturday, Paul decided we needed to go swimming. He got out the computer and planned a road trip. We drove 2 to 3 hours to go stay at a Holiday Inn with an indoor pool. He has some priority points so we got to stay for free. We got there about 5:30, checked in, and went to eat dinner. After dinner, we went back to the hotel and we spent the rest of the evening at the pool. Sunday was also Paul's birthday. We got up, and the Easter Bunny had visited the boys at the hotel. There baskets were overflowing with goodies! We got things packed up and went to have breakfast at Denney's.

After breakfast we headed towards home. Unfortunately since it was Easter there was not much open. On the way home we went park hopping. We took a lengthy detour and saw a lot that we plan to go visit again when we have more time!

When we got home we ate dinner, and soon realized that the easter bunny hid eggs in the house while we were gone. I guess he did not want to hide them outside because he did not want the candy to melt out in the sun. Such a thoughtful Bunny!!! The boys searched for eggs in their underwear. I will put the pictures in a seperate post.

Family Eggstravaganza

Our church put on a Family Eggstravaganza on Saturday. They had stations set up with crafts, snacks, and artwork. After everyone had done a station, we did Easter egg hunts. They had them split up in age groups so parents that have kids in every age group (like us) could see all the kids hunt. Unfortunately the batteries in the camera did not last so there are not many photos!

They all cleaned up on eggs. Bryce and Isaac both got prize eggs. Isaac got a travel Lite Brite, and Bryce got a huge green bunny rabbit.

Isaac's Egghunt

Isaac had an egghunt at school on Friday. It was cute, but Isaac only got 4 eggs. He was interested in what was inside the egg and just wasn't fast enough! He had fun though, and here are some pictures of the fun!

Bryce Scared

This is what Bryce looks like when there is thunder or anything else that scares him. These pictures were actually taken while we were going through a car wash, but you get the idea!
