Easter!

Squirrel got dyed this year instead of eggs!"Can we go hunt yet?"

The 'easy' ones for Sela and Slade.

Sela knew exactly what to do! We didn't even have to show her.

It was very windy...

Mark walked with her throughout the hunt.

Searching for more eggs...

Slade said he made out with $14,100 from his eggs.....

Maybe I should have hunted.....

All five kids had a blast running like crazy!

Finally, Sela got to eat a piece of her candy she found....and loved it! The strange thing is that she never took a pacifier....but loved this ring pop!

Wise Parents...

The more I appease my child when he is young,

the nastier and unhappier he will be as an adult.

Uh Oh!

Sela was playing with her toys......we are unsure how this happened!

She was trying and trying to get out....we were laughing and laughing!!!

This was the HELP ME point. Notice she never dropped her bite.

And YES, she is wearing Christmas pj's....they just now fit her. = )

Miss Independent!

Sela wants to feed herself now! So, we sit her at her table and let her go! I do have to scoop some food on the fork WITH her hand on the fork too or she will not eat it. She doesn't make too big of a mess, but she doesn't get to eat a lot either!

My doctor told me that they should start feeding themselves around 18 months......she's only 14 months! Just a little early on EVERYTHING!

She talks so much and will try to repeat anything you ask her to. My little smarty!

Warning: Lots of Pictures!

Sorry I haven't posted pictures in a while.....Here's a picture overload for you to enjoy!

Sela's new couch from her Aunt HaHa! She loves it.

Cow-Pa and most of his Grandkids at Christmas.

Great Grandpa Elder

Goofs

Felix and Mini Felix.

I love that Logan wants to help cook!

Having fun with daddy...as always!

Sela loves Belly Buttons!

Bubba made Sela her baby sized pancake! And she loved it! No surprise.

Kissing daddy while playing.

Sela is such a good sport while brushing her teeth.

This is what a typical dinner looks like when we let Sela feed herself.
First go at spagetti!

The dogs usually get to help a little!

And finally, a bath!

Broccoli, Chicken and Rice dinner. EVERYWHERE!

Dillon watching tv.

Logan playing his guitar. He's really good!

Sela in the process of sitting in her chair.

Sela and her friend Aiden. She would not smile for the camera. Aiden was looking so handsome!

Toby

We sadly had to put Toby down this afternoon. A tumor had grown so that his bladder could not properly drain. After many tears, it was decided that it was better for him to be put to sleep and go to 'doggy heaven'. Toby was a great dog. He will be missed by all of us. Even our extended family misses him already.

Sela found her nostril's

Can I just say GROSS???

This is so stinking funny....and gross all at the same time!

I could not stop laughing.

She 'dug' so much that her eyes were watering = )

Amidst all of the new explorations....I received a booger for a present. YUCK. I totally grossed out. I'm not a fan of boogers. I don't care who they belong to. I don't even like my own.
