Grillin' & Chillin'

We finally fired up the grill last night. It was so nice out - we made burgers. They were delicious. I gave up on making Henry wash his hands before we ate... he was such a mess from being outside all day. I figured that dirt can't be filled with too many germs!

Miscellaneous

Since we're still catching up (and since blogger keeps x'ing out my pics!), I have no explanations for you... just enjoy the pics!! :)

Hindle Time!

We were able to spend a wknd with Meagan (my sister) and Ryan recently. My parents watched the kids one evening so we could all go out to dinner. I think dessert was the highlight!

Spring!

We can already tell that warm weather will bring many bath times! Henry has been out a ton and loves every minute of it. Wyatt enjoys it too - Henry pushes him around in the stroller - it's like having free babysitting :)

Dayton Dragons Game

It's been busy around here! I was in Phoenix last week with Wyatt, Henry was in Indiana with Levi and Cam, and Jonathan was in Louisville. I need to take some pictures!! :) Henry had fun at the DD game with Jonathan. They went with the youth from our church.

If you haven't heard yet, Ohio has changed the driving age regulations.

As you can see, it is not just fun for the kids! Michelle's dream as a child was to work a cash register. Today her dreams came true. I am still waiting for the NBA to call...

A Day with Anna...

Today we took Anna for the day. We had so much fun! We took the kids to the Boonshoft Museum. It's just the right size for them. They made their first pretend dinner together and did some grocery shopping... :)

When we got home, they were tired... so they relaxed on a run with Jonathan.
All in all, as you can tell, they had a great day! They are two crazy kids!! :) Payton and Wyatt are going to have to work hard to keep up!

Our sweet ill boys

Meet Henry and Wyatt... before and after the flu has hit! We have had a run of influenza around here. Jonathan started it, and then Henry, and then me, and now Wyatt. This all started 8 days ago, but we are all still dealing with the symptoms. Of course, any parent hates to see their babies not well, especially when they are so little.

We were concerned for Wyatt since he is only 9 weeks and was running a 102.6 temp, but he seems to be doing better today and we are hoping that he is on the road to recovery with the rest of us. We sought good counsel and feel sure that, at least for now, he is safe. We wish you all good health in this spring weather!!

We can hardly wait for Spring!!

It's Official...

The house is up for sale! We're trying to take advantage of the market... we'll see what happens.

Henry was liking the whole coloring eggs thing... We didn't do it last year with him. So this was a pre-bed highlight last night. Of course, within seconds, he skipped the metal dipper and just went right into the dye with his fingers. How could he resist? I'm not sure what was more concerning to me... Henry getting dye on my kitchen table, or when I walked into the kitchen and saw Josh (Jonathan's youngest brother) and Jonathan coloring eggs together... :) Mom Cooper, I thought you would appreciate this! Jonathan said that you never let them color eggs growing up... I know he must be lying!

the Blue Crew

We ran the first race w/ the Blue Crew... Henry was so excited for the St. Patrick Day's run! :)
