Family Pictures

My sister Christina took some pictures of our little family. Porter just wanted to run around everywhere, but we seemed to get a few good ones.

Hi Annie

Annie has been all smiles lately, especially when you get close to her and say "Hi Annie" over and over. Porter and I will sit by her swing and get her to smile. He loves it, she loves it and I love it.




The Perfect Porter Day

Yesterday Aunt Kelly, Porter, Annie and I decided we were going to go to the zoo, but when we got to the zoo there was an Easter Eggstravaganza going on and we decided to join in. It became a day full of Porter fun. We went on train rides, hay rides, an egg hunt, cookie decorating, ring and bean bag toss and lots and lots of running. It was as if Porter was in heaven. He loved everything about the day.

Porter wanted his sticker off of his hands.


All of us taking turns being an egg.





This is how Annie was the whole time, cuddly and asleep.


Cookie decorating. We made ones for Porter, Daddy and Uncle Joseph.



Porter with his prizes from the ring/bean bag tosses. He played twice.



Trying to figure out how to throw the ring.


He threw all three bean bags on the ground at once. Luckily there was a nice guy there who let him do it again.


Showing off his stickers he found in his eggs during the egg hunt.

Found one.

All tuckered out on the way home.

"Umpa"

We love Umpa




Necklaces and Ducks

A couple of weeks ago Job and I took Porter to feed some ducks, which he had previously done and loved and has talked about ever since. It was fun to relax and do something Porter likes, which is being outside and throwing food pretty much.



We have started making cereal necklaces as well and it has become a favorite for Porter, probably because he gets to eat sugary cereal. He does however say uh-oh at the crumbs and picks them up, which becomes helpful in the cleaning up process.

J-E-L-L-O

Last night I decided to make some sugar free jello and for dessert we would make jello jigglers. We got the jello out and cookie cutters out and went at it. We even had some cool whip. It was so much fun to eat with our fingers and have a good time.

Mommy and Porter.

Porter loved to press the cookie cutters into the jello.

Daddy taught Porter how to suck the jello off the table.

Porter wondering what is all over his fingers.
