Stretch!

Poor little Thunderer clearly had high hopes about that egg. It was all for naught though.

Baby Hunter

Little Miss tried to guide the new hunter but she got distracted digging through the leaves instead.

Pickup Hunters

There he goes, the guy with a massive height advantage over the other hunters, and he’s leaning down to take the ground level eggs.

I’m glad we distribute the candy inside evenly after the hunt or else he’d have gotten sick from all the sugar for sure.

The others were close behind him though, he won’t get them all!

Thunderer paused to watch out for more in the tree. I enjoy this shot because there’s nothing left, but they don’t know that yet.

The Hunt Begins

Easter this year mostly cooperated weather wise. Everybody still needed to wear jackets but otherwise it was cool and spring-like outside.

Little Miss helped hide the eggs for her younger siblings so she was walking around with Fireball this time instead.

New Skater Boi

For Christmas Superman was going to get roller skates via a gift card from his grandparents but we found that there just isn’t a pair that exists that would fit him well.

What we ended up with as an outdoorsy alternative that he was still interested in was a brand new skateboard that just recently arrived.

(Yes behind him as he holds the skateboard there’s a Christmas penguin. We never manage to put that away.)

We also got him a new helmet and pads.

But now he’s fully ready to practice! First step, balance while standing still.

Birthday Nap

Now that’s a title I can get behind.

She zonked right out after such a busy day for her afternoon nap right on big brother Superman.

Naturally he later deposited her in her “recliner” so he could go elsewhere.

Getting Dressed

The advantage of a big family is that there’s a lot of people looking out for the tiny one, especially on her birthday.

Clean Birthday Baby

Naturally with that much mess, time for a bath and an outfit change!

Let There Be Cake

We went with a non-traditional cake for Fireball. Oreo dirt cake.

Much mess was made.

Naturally that meant it was time to take her out of the outfit. I think this is the happiest mess that I’ve ever seen.

Birthday Baby

So the last time I actually posted any family news was really about a year ago. Naturally a new baby does keep things busy.

Said new baby is now a year old though!

 

She really appreciated her first birthday I think.
