Hallelujah! Spring is in the air.
Today it is 73 outside and it is GREAT! We went to the park this morning and when we got there many people had the same idea I did. I love this time of year when green leaves are sprouting all around us. I also love to have the windows open and have the fresh air rush through my house. I made it through another Minnesota winter...I feel great. I think I will go buy something to plant this Saturday.

Danny at 7 months.
Danny will be 7 months on Saturday.
Today I found Danny's first tooth.
He is sleeping from 7p.m. until 7 a.m. I feel like a new woman now getting some sleep!
He is 18.5 lbs
Danny is getting up on his hands and knees, but not crawling yet. He can roll everywhere he wants. He loves to watch his brothers and see what they are doing. I love to watch Danny light up when his brothers are around. He laughs and thinks they are so great!
The other day I found at Target these cute flower pots. The boys loved planting their sunflowers. Jacob keeps looking at his and wondering when the flower will grow.

My Baby Turned 5
This past Sunday Andrew turned 5. It is amazing to me that I have a 5 year old child. Wow, how time flies when you are having fun!
Saturday we had a Backyardigans party for Andrew at our house.
We started with a Pablo pinata.
Jacob hitting the pinata.
The kids each had a turn, but all they were able to to was hit Pablo's head off, but the candy was inside the body. After everyone had a turn we gave Andrew a metal bat and let him have at it, but he was unable to do much damage.
Doug, being the good dad that he is, stepped up to finish the job. He started to hit and hit the pinata. I kept hearing this clank sound and thought to myself, I wonder what is in the pinata that keeps making that noise. Finally Doug broke the pinata. All the candy came out in a big poof because we had put shock tarts, sweet tarts, nerds and chocolate candy inside. I then realized what was making that clanking noise. Everything but the chocolate was broken into a powder form. Good thing we put chocolate in it so some of the candy was still in tack.
We also played stick the bow tie on Pablo.
BINGO
We had cupcakes.
Everyone got a mask.
Andrew had a great day. This was his first birthday party and loved all the new toys he got.
Andrew is such a good big brother. He has even shared all his new toys with Jacob.
Andrew loves to read, play the computer, and be outside on the tramp or kicking a ball. We LOVE you Andrew!!

Family Home Evening at the Hobbs' home
This is Doug's idea of a perfect FHE, filling out our brackets. Doug would read off the two teams and the boys each picked the team. Of course, Jacobs favorite team was BUTler. They both picked a 14 seated team to win it all. Doug said if a 14 seat team wins, we are headed to the race track!
