one year ago... easter

well, as easter is only weeks away, i wanted to put a few pictures up from last year to remind the three people who read my blog what the kids looked like at this time last year. kate could barely sit up, and johnny's hair was a lot shorter. my favorite thing is getting see's candy "for the children" and then deciding they can't have all that sugar. james got johnny that little bunny with a basketball, so i thought i'd put him in the montage. a little shout out to uncle james. the next picture is of the gi-normous bunnies my mom got the kids that are still taking up about half of kate's closet space. they will make their brief appearance this easter and then go back to their closet home until kate realizes she is scared of the bunnies coming out of the closet at night and eating her. then they might bless another child's life when we give them to d.i.. finally, i have to give props to mert and kate for their always amazing decorating skills. their house puts everybody else's to shame. there you see the larger-than-my-children easter eggs and basket that goes on the front porch each year. that is pretty much the one thing in their home that my kids are allowed to touch.
