Kites

April 2009 386We've got some kites to fly at Easter so wear appropriate clothing especially if you plan on hiking up the hill. When you kids were little we tied the kite string around your belly so you wouldn't loose your kite.We kept a close eye on Noel because he was so skinny we thought he would be the first to be lifted into the air.

Aaron and Emily are married!

Jonas took his first steps today!

This afternoon, Jonas hit a milestone when he let go of his crib and took 4 steps into my arms.  He knew he had accomplished something great by my burst of excitement.  He giggled and repeated several times. Later in the day he took 5 steps into Aunt Cassie's arms.  Of course he had to show his dad and repeated the walk almost until bedtime.

Way to go Jonas!!!
