Big weekend fun

I know I haven't been too consistent with my blog posting around here but we had a fun filled weekend with my folks visiting, and here's some proof:)

There was much park-ing. Cute brothers

although Max found out he could score more chicks when he ditched the little guy:)

Nani showed the kids how to roll down a big hill!

a REALLY big hill!!

I think they are starting to get the hang of it:)

Papa and Magnus enjoyed the show

and Magnus tried his hand, he just needs to figure out which way to go:)

Next he tried out some walking

 My cute boys.

All that rolling sure does make dirty kids!

Back at home after some goofing around (or would that be yaking around?)

and a quick nap

The kids got to embark on a right of passage...

Making banana pudding!! (I blame myself for Max's lady-like appearance, as I have not yet gotten around to making him a more "manly" acceptable apron like I promised. It's on my to-do list, honest.)

These kids are pretty good pudding makers:)

and beater lickers!

(don't worry we were done with that one;)
Nice job guys!

It was a hit! (surprise)

Even Magnus liked it:)

Then we all enjoyed doing "dum ditty". I have some video of it for those of you unfamiliar with "dum ditty" (although I'm not sure you want to know) I'll try to post that soon:)

Thanks for coming to visit Nani and Papa! We had so much fun! I can't wait for our Vegas vacation in a couple of weeks and I'm sure I'll have lots to blog about then:)

Things we do...

Here's what we've been up to for the past week or so:)

 Some baby wrastling...

Daddy horsey rides...

And popsicles have made an appearance again! Yay for spring:)

The kids have been having fun at swim lessons

and we've actually been enjoying a little sun here in Seattle! Time to hit the park!

The kids like the monkey bars (the monkey's:).

Although Magnus was less than enthused with the swings.

Is this not exciting enough for you, Magnus?

 Auntie Lexi got to come too!

Cute Bee!

Max said the sun was in his eyes:)

I think this was Max's favorite thing:)

What could top a sunny day at the park?

ICE CREAM!

Magnus liked that idea.

And he's been brushing up on his walking skills.

Today Mina got to go to her friend Violet's birthday party:)

Max was invited too! (what a nut!)

They got to decorate their own cupcakes!

That was a hit:)

 Birthday girl opening presents...

and blowing out candles.

What cute friends:)

They had so much fun. Thanks for being born, Violet:)

Back

So, it's been brought to my attention that I haven't blogged in awhile! I'm not sure why. Time is just getting away with me! But have no fear; I am back to entertain the masses with our riveting adventures and crazy antics. You can rest easy tonight my friends.  I do it all for you.  You're welcome.

So today Max got to go to a big boy birthday party for buddy Caleb! It was a drop off party so I have no pictures:(  While Max was having a blast at his big boy birthday party, John and I decided to meet Margie and Lexi in Mill Creek for some ice cream! It was really hard to convince Mina to go;)

Yes, his eyes really are THAT blue!

We're so cute!

Lexi was there too, She's getting SO big!

Magnus was enjoying the sunshine

Pretty Bee

and you might have heard that there is a new light heavyweight champion....

Alright, that's all for now. I'll try not to leave ya hangin:)
