Birds and Boys

Here are some pictures of the birds from our backyard and my sweet boys over the past few months, including a few pictures from a trip to Chattanooga.
Connor and his "cousins" all playing WiiU together.
A bunch of friends over for a potluck dinner.  We put a movie on
so the kids would be entertained and we could talk!
"Here's a letter brother!"
Goofy Connor.
So cute.
On March 12th, we took another trip to Chattanooga, this time to the aquarium and Rock City.  As always, it was a bunch of fun!
Kid loves penguins.
We got the river aquarium in time for the alligator and alligator snapping turtle feeing time!  It was really interesting.  This turtle is over 100 years old!
I've seen these turtle stacked several different
visits.  I guess they like it. 
Cherry blossom season is very short, but our birds went crazy for the flowers.  It was fun to watch them and a try to get halfway decent pictures of them.
These pictures were taken 6 days apart.
Someone fell right asleep.
Eamon is part cat.
Both boys fell asleep.
Connor was not feeling well.
iPad time.
Inside a display shower at Lowe's.
He picked his own outfit.
Yelling "Hug!"
He likes to get brooms and pretend
he is Kiki from Kiki's Delivery Service.

Snow Days February 18th and 26th

We had a couple of days of snow this year.  Like most Alabama snow, it didn't hang out for a long time.  Connor liked it, but only played in it when we "made" him, and Eamon was not a fan.
The 18th.
I'm not completely sure why Eamon was so anti-snow, but all he wanted was for me to hold him, so up on my back he went.
Cute snow buddy.
Hold me!
Connor's snow angel.
Happy now!
In the middle of throwing a snow ball.
I thought this was really cool.
Sitting in the snow chair.  He thought it was hilarious.
Connor was so proud.

Easter

Easter tree with all Dad's vintage ornaments.
This year for Easter we got to host and have our first Easter egg hunt in our yard!  The boys thought it was so fun.  They liked the toys in their Easter basket, and having Sani, Sassy, and Paige come visit was just great!  I can't get enough of Eamon's smocked outfit I got on consignment.
The boys love sitting in this tree.
Happy Dada.
Happy son.
This kid right here...
He's too much.
Family picture attempt.
The boys insisted on opening the eggs as they went.
They DID have chocolate in them.
Playing with his letter puzzle on his Minion
towel from Sani.
Bubble time with Dad on the hammock is always great.
