Easter Day 2015

The Easter bunny left the boys baskets filled with little gifts- and even left Ellie a little basket!! LJ came racing down the stairs and found everyone's baskets immediately! He dragged Evan over, and they got to work sorting through their baskets (Ellie slept through the entire thing!). 
Ellie's mini- basket!
The boys got a couple different gifts this year so got to show each other what they each got! It was very cute!


Evan was way more into eating candy this year than any gift!! 



My happy little Ellie-bunny!





After naps, we got to continue our celebration at Queenie and Grandad's house for their annual Easter egg hunt and dinner!

A dad and his girl- heart melting! 

 My sweet boy- excited to hunt!
 And their off....


 This year the Robinsons had a special surprise addition- a bunny piñata!! We went smallest-to-biggest-kids hitting order, and all the kids got several turns (a quality piñata!). What a fun treat!

Evan got to go after Locke...




 Damaged bunny- but still hanging on!


 Kate got it!
 Wow that was a full bunny!
 The piñata remains- a little disturbing!

Time for confetti eggs!  And this year we got to get Queenie!! Yay! 
 Evan's face in the back ground sums up his feelings on LJ! No one is funnier in the whole world! Love it!


 Grandad's turn!

 Happy little batman!
 Evan gets Uncle E!
 Uncle Dan gets LJ!
 LJ gets Uncle E!
 Evan thinks this is hilarious!
 Evan getting his dad...

 Kate hanging with Ellie!
 Evan sneaking under Barrett's legs in an attempt to get more chocolate!! He is a total addict like me- poor guy!!

Playing with toys from their baskets! I asked LJ and Eagle Jr to show me their mean faces... haha!
Battle time?!
Ellie hanging with the boys!
Uncle Dan and Kate... 
Grandad, Queenie and all the grandkids (except Lauren who was sick)! I love these! 

Sweet cousins (missing Lauren and Locke!)
The oldest and the youngest (well, for a few more weeks!) 
My little princess! Thanks for the precious outfit Gigi!!! 


If only she would smile sometimes ;)


Thank you Grandad and Queenie for another blessed and wonderful Easter! We are so thankful for you all!! 
And thank you God!! The words we must remember and give thanks for around our house... He is Risen!!!! And thanks to Him, we can too!!

Trampoline Park

Went back to Trampoline Park on Sunday... LJ has gotten so much better and more confident - guess all the practice time on his little trampoline is paying off! Still so much fun for Dad...  And the Mamas finally get in on all the fun!  Last time we went I was VERY pregnant and couldn't jump... but not this time! I see a frequent Sunday family outing in our future! A little sliding time... And video gaming! Too much fun!!

Ellie - Our Earliest Crawler!

Our little 'surprise' baby got us again and started crawling 2 months earlier than the boys did! She was close for about a week, and then at just about 8.5 months, she took her first crawls! She is getting the hang of it quickly... time to secure the legos that seem to always be all over the floor! First she started rocking on her knees, and doing little army crawls/ knees/ army crawl to get places. Then about a week later, we saw her first crawls. Within a week after those first crawls, she was all over the place!!! She will come find me in the kitchen if I leave her sitting in the living room and will venture all over the house! She's not fast, but she's pretty good! And so proud of herself! Here are some videos of her progress... Ellie's first little mini-crawls: h ttp://www.youtube.com/watch? v=xm3GTgjZXbU And she has mastered the roll-to-sit move! Yay! http://www.youtube.com/watch? v=0cmXfOE3GrA Five days of crawling... she is so obsessed with the t...

Mother's Day Celebrations

What a special and spoiled week I had!!! On Tuesday I picked these two precious things up from Champions:  Then the first celebration (well not including the Chick-fil-a mom-son date knight) was on Wednesday. LJ's class at WHPP had a Mother's Day Tea- and how lucky we were that Gigi came to town late on Tuesday night and was able to join me!!  Since Gigi was there (the only Grandmother in the room!), we got a table all to ourselves... and also LJ had twice the amount of work! He served both Gigi and me our tea/ lemonade, cookies, and fruit snacks!  He made me a very fun necklace and made me a new coffee mug all wrapped up...      I started crying when I read it: "This is the hand you used to hold when I was only 4 years old" with a hand print ned to it!!! How special!!  And a flower for Gigi!!!   This was outside LJ's classroom...  I am chopped liver with these two! Haha!!  We picked up Evan a...
