Red Robin

Due to the really hot weather, we decided to take a break for lunch at Red Robin. Logan is getting better in restaurant highchairs...

Bella couldn't look more bored, and yes she kept her sunglasses on the whole time.

Cameron was the only happy one, he seemed roll with the punches...such a calm guy.

Time out

I must be a bad mom because this the cutest thing I've ever seen!

Mother's Day

Mother's Day turned out ok considering the sicky's we had at the house. The kids were doing a lot better and actually had a few moments of getting along. They snuggled together, shared pudding and just caused mischief as usual.

Happy almost Mother's Day...

So far the night before Mother's Day is eventful in the Leonardson house. As of last night we have three sick kids! Cameron is the least sick of the three with just a runny nose and a little cough. Bella had us up all night last night with ear pain and sore throat...we took her to the doctor this morning to find out she has one ruptured ear drum, one bulging ear drum and a red, sore throat. Logan has the worst cough I've heard from a baby in a long time...it pretty much sounds like he is going to cough up a lung...

Happy Mother's Day to me!

Just in case this is the only picture we will ever have of the kids all getting along at once. I thought I'd share this moment.

Morning conversation between Bella and Daddy...

Darin: "Bella, give me a hug."
Bella: (with her doctor equipment)
Darin: "Are you checking my heart?"
Bella: "I can hear it beeping" and "I can hear God"
Darin: "You can hear God in my heart?" "Why can you hear God in my heart?"
Bella: "That is where you hear God and Jesus, That is how you talk to him."
Darin: "What do you say to him when you talk to him?"
Bella: "Anything, he listens"
Darin: "What happens when you ask him for things?"
Bella: "He does it for you" "God is in your heart, he listens to you"

At this point, mom starts to cry at the innocent, open, complete faith of a four year old. Wouldn't it be nice if we all could be so open and matter of fact about the incredible goodness of God.

It's Spring!...finally

What better way to celebrate the beautiful spring weather then by watering the tulips in our fairy costume...makes perfect sense to me.

We got to spend a lot of time outside yesterday enjoying the wonderful, much awaited spring weather.

A trip to the park was a must and Logan loved the freedom of the picnic blanket in the grass...

That is until he touched the grass and realized he didn't like the way it felt.

Spring time is bubble time in our household. You will see a lot of pictures like this for the next couple of months. Cameron has mastered blowing, not eating the bubbles and he is hooked!
