the randomness of life
Auntie D and Uncle Bob came over for Labor Day to hang out, eat yummy food, do some shopping etc. etc. etc. Anyway while they were here Uncle Bob added a few new features to Jonas’ swingset! I am super excited because it’s about to start getting a bit more bearable outside so we can actually hang out in the backyard without melting! So this facelift came just in time!
Safety FIRST 
A bouy SWING..isn’t it cool? I think Jonas will love it!
Uncle Bob certainly did Thanks again uncle Bob!!!!!!
This past Saturday we got to visit with my cousin and her family. They came down from up north and were staying in Ft. Lauderdale. We had such a nice time visiting with them, I only wish we could have had more time!
Prepare yourself for some serious cuteness!! Her kids are soooooo adorable!!
This is Matthew he was putting on a show for us at dinner is was so funny. He was seriously eating circles around Jonas!
Look at that face! This is Chelsea, we went to the beach across the street after dinner, she was collecting shells and she was serious about those shells it was so cute.
This cracks me up, it was back at the hotel just before we were getting ready to leave. I love the looks on Chelsea and Matthew’s faces. They are looking at Jonas like what are you up too?? And, yes Jonas is wearing Christmas pj’s don’t ask
We had Easter had my sister’s house this year. It was fun. I took pictures. Here they are.
FAVORITE PHOTO OF THE DAY!
Happy Easter everyone!! I managed to find a few minutes to sit down and do an Easter post..yay! Yesterday we had a get together with Brian’s family to celebrate my sis-in-law Ami’s Birthday and of course Easter Carla and I tried really hard to get the kids to cooperate for an easter photo but it really just didn’t go so well. I had the idea to stick mini m&m’s in an easter basket to get them to sit by the basket and act Eastery (is that a word?) Anyway you can see how it went…
Grace sorta beat Jonas to the punch
He became so focused on the M&M’s that I couldn’t get a smile out of him!
I managed to get a couple cute candid ones of them which is about all you can expect with 2 wild toddlers!
HAPPY EASTER EVERYONE!!!!!!!!!!!
….parenting 101 by Brian and Kathleen…HAHAHA! Enjoy…

Well, hopefully cause my sister in law got lots of boy clothes at her shower yesterday and that would be bad if HE turns out to be a SHE!
Anyway just thought I would share some pics from yesterday’s festivities!
This was the coolest carved watermelon I had ever seen! Its a baby carriage isn’t it cute??!! Carla’s sister made it.
This is a bassinet that was used as the gift “table”. I thought it was such a cute idea
Dawn as the baby bingo announcer. I asked her to take over with the games cause I was in charge of that and…well…she’s better at it.
Blue punch..too cute!
The soon to be BIG SIS!
I would post some belly pics of Carla however she probably wouldn’t appreciate it so I won’t but hopefully I will be posting pictures of her little one soon enough…
Jonas and I just got back from a weekend in the keys. Sadly Brian had to work so he couldn’t come down with us but we made the best of it and Jonas had lots of fun visiting his Key West family
Here are some pics from the weekend.
Grandpa pushed him on the swings for quite awhile, he LOVED it!
Playing in the cemetery. I know that sounds weird but I grew up next door to the cemetery and we always ran around in it so it was only natural.
Aunt Kyla and Uncle Dennis (we were trying all weekend to get a good pic of the two and this one was my favorite)
Jonas and grandpa at the white street pier.
Sporting his Charlie Brown Tee. Isn’t it great ?!
A little early morning gift opening…
Jonas got a little einstein ride along he LOVED it!
Mom and Jay came over for gifts and breakfast casserole.
Bacon wrapped jalapenos, my contribution to Christmas dinner with Brian’s fam.
Jonas’ cousin Grace loving her brand new play set.
My mother and sister in-law dodging the paparazzi
Jonas hogging his cousin’s chair to watch some TV.
So yesterday was my Aunt Karen’s birthday and I wanted to wish her a happy birthday and post this GREAT photo she sent me of her and all of her beautiful grandkids:
Aren’t they so cute?? You are one lucky Grandma, Aunt Karen!
Happy Belated Birthday!
