Hair cut and an egg dye

What could be more fun? Still catching up on the Easter...
A very successful haircut-thanks to a blue lollipop and Miss Tera. And Easter egg dye goodness-thanks to Austin and Logan's awesome craft box of fun birthday gift and a super cool craft apron from cousins Georgie and Evie...

A Good Friday for the "triplets" at Maymont Park

Followed by a Happy Holy Saturday of egg hunting and bunny time.
Lots more great photos to post this week...

Our DC Day

As part of Van's birthday celebration, we took him up to The Kennedy Center for what we hope is the first of many live music events there for him. The Teddy Bear Concerts are geared to kids 3 and up and they get to bring along their favorite pal. Of course Howard was along for our ride. And what a ride it was...little did we know that it was also peak cherry blossom weekend. As past DC residents, we should have known better but it caught us by surprise. Traffic was a mess so we ended up arriving a bit late but it turned out to be an awesome adventure. Van loved the music and the airplanes.
On Sunday we finally got the bouncy bounce fully inflated and enjoyed the beautiful weather at home.
Lots more photos to post from this holy week ahead so stay tuned!

Birthday Blog....finally....

Yes we did it...we celebrated Van's birthday as a family...the big 3! Wow, last year's birthday cake shipped from across the world to a little boy we hadn't met yet seems like a million years ago. He's home, he's VAN, he loves us and we love him more than words can possibly express. He has the love and support of so many amazing family members and friends that sometimes I think life just doesn't get much better than this...
