More randomness...

Well, it's May 1st today! I've always enjoyed May. It "usually" signals the beginning of spring for us, green grass, hot weather, flowers... leaves returning to the trees... so of course yesterday when we woke up to snow everywhere I was a bit disappointed. Today, however, renewed optimism has returned to my house! The sun is shining, we can go outside in sweaters, not coats, and the edge of the lawn is starting to look a bit green, finally. No flowers, no buds... but there's hope!

So... in celebration of kissing winter good-bye (knock on wood) here's highlights of our dreary April! This will probably be my last post before the baby arrives but when that happens, I'm sure I'll start using my camera excessively again! :)

Birthday party aftermath...

Visiting with our only cousin, Brandon (he's 4.5 months older than our Connor).

Alex and Cory made Easter eggs cupcakes. Alex had fun going sprinkle crazy. Unfortunately, the icing was expired and had a nasty plastic-y taste to it (I hate small-town grocery stores... everything's always expired and we forgot to check this one) so his works of art sat out for a few days to be admired then landed in the garbage can.

Fun with tatoos (fake of course, jeez, he's only 3!)...
And one for the new baby, thanks Alex! (It says "What's your story?)

Here we are at 36 weeks. I should really post a more recent one, but I missed 37 weeks and now am rounding 38 weeks, so I might as well wait until then to take it.

And one of Connor perched on my parents' fireplace, just cause I think he's gorgeous! ;)
