April's Adventures!

Hey all!  We have had many fun adventures in April!  The weather is turning warm---this weekend was down right hot--and we have been taking advantage of Spring by spending our time outside!  Yeah!  For Easter we went to KY to see Kathy, Carl, and Great Grandma Helen Louise.  We had a great time hanging out and playing.  Since Easter, we have spent our days at the park getting all dirty in the sandbox and riding our bikes out in the street with our friends.  We have some fun neighbors with lots of kids, so it is fun to go outside and have an instant party out in the street!  This past weekend Auntie Kelli came into town from NYC and we had a fabulous time!  We went strawberry picking and we took Sully to see a movie at the theater!  It was a blast and we were so sad to see Kelli go back home.  

Ansley is now 16 months and she is a walking machine!  She toddles around everywhere and is really enjoying her new freedom to explore and get into mischief.  She loves going to the park so she can get completely dirty in the sandbox and LOVES going down the slides.  It is fun to see her toddle around and play on her own.  Not too much new is going on with Sully---he still LOVES animals and is going through a Noah's Ark stage...he loves lining up his animals like they are going into Noah's Ark and then putting them all under his bed or the couch (the Ark) and then bringing them back out in the sunshine.  So funny!  He also likes to take his animals outside to put them in the bushes and plants to play "Jungle."  He is getting really good at riding his bike and most afternoons wants to ride out with Matthew--his new buddy 2 houses down the street.  He is taking swim lessons and just after one session has already graduated to the next level!  He is swimming on his own on his front and back!  Yeah--all that hard work with Mommy is paying off!  He is going to have a blast this summer!  He is growing up so fast and every day amazes me with what he is learning and remembering from school and from his books.  

Here are some pictures from the past few weeks...enjoy!

Strawberry pickin'

Kelli and I took Sully and Ansley to Washington Farms in Loganville, GA for an afternoon picnic and strawberry pickin' adventure.  It was a beautiful place and Sully probably ate about 40 strawberries while pickin'!  Ansley was more into squishing them in between her fingers...we had a fabulous time and have been eating strawberries at every meal!  :)  

Ready to go pickin'!

Love the glasses!  

Sully picked all the juicy strawberries!

SOOO Strong!  :)

Ansley was a great picker!  

My sweet "Eleigh"LOVE these pictures!Done picking and enjoying some more strawberries---I think Sully ate about 35-40 that afternoon!

Sully at the movies!

On Saturday night, Kelli and I took Sully to the movies and we saw Disney's "Earth."  Sully has been to the IMAX once, but this was really his first real movie besides some kids showings during the summer.  We got some popcorn and Sour Patch Kids and made a night out of it...we had a blast!  Between all the strawberries, popcorn, and candy, I can't believe he didn't get sick! :)  :)  It was super fun and the movie was awesome--of course, Sully knew the names of almost all the animals already!  :)  

Mouthful of popcorn! 

Enjoy the pictures!
