...no pants! Instead of napping today, Simon was busy taking off his pants.
He was sad when I came in and made him stay in bed.
Poor boy was so tired today.

A Trip to the Farm
I can't believe how fast April has flown by. With so much going on the first couple of weeks, I missed out on posting some other pictures. I will be trying to catch up a bit here, bear with me.
During the first week of April we borrowed Michael's Dad's car while his parents were on Spring Break. Little did I know we would be buying a car the next week, so I wanted to take advantage of the great weather and spend time out and about. One of the days we headed to the farm again (because I love me some free entertainment). We packed a lunch and headed out to see the spring baby animals. We played at the park, drove the tractors, and saw a few animals in between. It was a beautiful day spent at the farm with the kids.

Easter Sunday
EASTER MORNING: The Easter Bunny made a stop at our house this year leaving a lot of treats and gifts for the kids. Too bad it was early morning and I have no idea what setting my camera was on. All the pictures are blurry. However, I think you can still get the idea that Miriam and Simon were excited.
EASTER OUTFITS: We took pictures of the kids right after church while they still looked nice.
We decided to wait until later to get a family picture. This was such a bad choice because it turned out to be a very windy day. We didn't get a super great shot of all of us. In fact I will show you just how awesome we look.

Coloring Eggs
On Saturday (after test driving cars), Michael colored eggs with Miriam while Simon was taking a nap. I wasn't very helpful but I took pictures!
Miriam only dropped one and it turns out our eggs were not hard boiled. Michael and Miriam were very careful with the rest of the eggs. She had fun anyway and didn't know the difference. Needless to say, we did not eat any eggs this year.

Simon's Birthday
We had such a fun filled day celebrating Easter (more on that later) and Simon's birthday all in one day. Simon wasn't really interested in opening presents. He loved ripping the paper for a while, but his focus didn't last long. Miriam was more than willing to help him open presents.
I am not very good at letting my kids get messy, plus we made red velvet cake (not exactly kid friendly), so the cake eating was a delicate process. Simon didn't know the difference. He enjoyed every last bite of cake.
Today we headed to the doctor to see how much Simon has grown. Here are his ever important one year stats: Weight - 23 lbs & Height - 30 1/2 inches. Looks like he is turning into a tall skinny boy like his Dad. Simon is such a fun, sweet boy. I am amazed by how much he is becoming aware of his surroundings. He loves to point at everything he sees. He can spot airplanes and birds like no other. Simon is also becoming very vocal. His excitement leads to grunts and squeals. If he is in the right mood he will copy any word/sound you make. His favorites are ball, Mama, and bath... he also says these words the most. We love our little one year old boy.
