Spring break has finally arrived! Aunt Angela's birthday happened to coincide with the beginning of break, so we celebrated both events at Kobe Steak House. Angela and Tyler are expecting their first baby around Mother's Day! She looks great! This was the kids' first time at this restaurant, and they enjoyed watching the food being cooked right at our table. It was very entertaining, so all three kids never got "bored". Olivia loved the food and all the girls who were there in their prom dresses, Ben liked playing with the chopsticks and watching the fire, and Sam was content trying to take plates, silverware, napkins, and menus from the table! Our chef had a very good sense of humor:-)
Last weekend Amy and I hosted a baby shower for Angela--it was a lot of fun. Olivia was a big help---one of her major jobs was making sure we had enough pencils for the game we played (she sharpened all of them with the electric pencil sharpener she got for Christmas--see picture below). John had kid duty that day---both Olivia and Ben had soccer games. . .of course at different times. . . so he took them and coached both games. It was cold (as you can see from the picture of Ben all bundled up)! Sam hung out at the shower----there were plenty of people who were willing to hold him:-) He will be nine months at the end of April, and he is really getting a personality. He is pushing up on hands and knees now. . . .but only moving backwards. Olivia is doing very well in first grade. She is reading like crazy and enjoys writing stories. . . .really writing anything---the other day she wrote down "The Rules of the House". Benjamin still loves Spiderman and entertaining his brother! He is sporting a new hair cut as of yesterday--he still has a few curls left:-)
We'll update you on our Spring Break events later in the week!
