Vikings Family Day

Last weekend, we attended the Vikings Family day at the metrodome.  We got to do all sorts of fun things like meet the players, jump in a bouncy castle, visit the locker room, eat hot dogs and cotton candy, ride the train and much more.  We went to the dome right after Noah's swimming lessons,  which meant no nap for either of us.  Mommy and Daddy said this was a 'trial run' for us missing a nap, and we did pretty good.  We both passed out on the way home though, we still need a little rest during the day :)

Noah's Kindergarten Screening

Last week mommy picked me up from Shelli's house and we went to school for my kindergarten screening.  They screen early around here (typically age 3), and I still won't go to school for another year, but I was excited to go none the less.  I had to do various things at my screening, and I did GREAT!  They told me at the end that I was ready for school!  I'm so excited, but I think my mommy is a little sad.....

So excited for school
Waiting patiently
Hearing is good
Certificate, I passed!

Easter 2013

Easter was early this year, and as a result, the weather was cold.  Mommy had 'springy' Easter outfits picked out for us though, and we wore them despite the cold weather.  All four of us got up super early, followed our trail of Easter eggs to our baskets full of goodies, then headed off to church for the sunrise service. Us kids behaved fairly well in church considering the time of day (okay, so Elliot spent quite a bit of time in the back, but who's keeping track?)  After eating breakfast, we headed home to play with our new toys.  After lunch and naps, we finished out our day at Freeziac, our favorite self-serve ice cream shop.
