We pushed the stroller all the way to and from Africa,
instead of disassembling the stroller and getting on the tram.

Started the babes on solid food this month.
This is a picture of them after their first try with rice cereal.


The kids didn't like the cereal much at first, but Mimi sure did. She was tasting while my back was turned and then tried to pretend like she wasn't doing anything!!! Guess she didn't realize she had cereal on her chin!!!



Happy Easter!!!
Thanks for the Easter Basket Aunt Sue & Uncle Gary!!!

Wow, time flies!

I knew it had been awhile since I posted, but I guess I didn't realize it had been since Christmas. I kept meaning to post, then I went back to work in late January. Not even two months later on March 9th I got laid off. (Again!?!?!?) I have been home with the babes since then, and don't have a good excuse for not posting. So much has been happening! I will try to break down the next few posts to let you catch up. Bill is still working at the hospital here in Marshall. I am looking for a job, but I am enjoying being home with the babies. I will need to go back to work, but don't know if we will stay here in MI or possibly move. We wish we were just independently wealthy, so we could both stay home with the kids! ;-)
