I don’t remember many details from this win at this point, since it was from late April, but it was probably my and Superman’s first win of the season. Those are what we usually commemorate. (He was Deadpool at the time.)

It was a very busy but fun Easter this last year. For some reason I feel like attributes were rushed but at the same time it feels a little “less” this year. Maybe because TJ wasn’t with us. I mean, he stopped by, but it was the first family holiday that came about where he was fully and officially moved out.
They still got to show off their creations though.

That time when TJ is walking to his apartment after a shift at work, sees his siblings at the park, and decides to join in on the fun for a little bit.
And yes, they are all holding on for dear life.

For those of you unaware, as kids get older, while you’d think that they would then have the ability to stay still for pictures easier, the opposite is true. Once they’re older they don’t want to pose for pictures as much anymore because they supposedly have better things to do than let we, the parents, capture them at every age.

At this point I don’t remember what they were playing. Probably the “lava zombie” game they made up.
What is “Lava Zombie” you ask?
It’s basically tag meets floor is lava.
So you start out with somebody “it” and then the rest of the players charge off. They have a limited time to get to high ground before the ground around the playground equipment becomes lava.
During lava, the person who is the “lava zombie” (it) can try to jump up and tag people but may not climb on the equipment themselves. If successful, those they tag climb down and join them in the lava and attempt to knock everyone else out.
Zombies are allowed to only walk but are allowed to go faster as there become more of them. So once they’re successfully at tagging the first person they’ll be able to speed walk, next, run, etc. At a certain point (the time is a bit arbitrary) they start counting down and then the floor is no longer lava. Everyone must change positions and zombies are now allowed to climb equipment. If, once lava is called again, somebody hasn’t moved (by changing levels on the playground equipment at the very least), they’re fair game to be climbed toward even during the lava period.
As the horde of lava zombies grow they’re allowed to start moving faster, remember, so the game is more about being the last one to be tagged than to never be tagged at all. At some point, everyone ends up being a zombie. We then reset and somebody else starts out as the single zombie. Try to rotate the role so everyone has a chance to start as the zombie.

Don’t mind us. We’re going to start in on the April 2022 pictures by going to the park on April Fool’s Day.
Now as you know, I have seven kids, so getting 3/7 in a great pose for pictures? That’s pretty darn priceless.

One has to admire these sweet sleeping moments while you can, because before you know it they’re just no longer willing to cuddle anymore… let alone take naps.
The cuddling returns, fortunately, but not immediately.

I love how careful Superman is being while also bringing a lot of joy to his little brother.

There Superman is, being the warm safe big brother as the Potato naps on.

Newbie now joins us on the Switch as of this birthday, so of course it’s time to put her on the road with a family favorite: Need for Speed.
