Update in Pictures

I am in the middle of our completely crazy month of April. No time to read blogs, no time to write posts. Here are a few pictures we have taken:

The temperature yesterday when this picture was taken? 60 degrees. Instead of putting sunblock on his face, because he hates it so much, he opted to wear this hat. (It covers his ears and velcroes at the chin.)
Yesterday Ethan had an unfortunate incident while playing at recess. I'm pretty sure he will have a huge black eye in the next day or two. (His right cheekbone is hugely swollen, if you can't tell.) (Ignore the dirty kitchen in the background.)
Yesterday for family night we went to Desert Mound to go rockhounding. There is a lot of mining done here (mostly for iron, since we live in Iron county). This is one area where they dug that is HUGE. The water is a bright blue/green, kind of like when you put one of those tablet things in your toilet bowl. I think the nickname of this hole in the ground is something like 2000 Flushes. Coincidence? I think not. We searched through the piles of rock left behind from all of the digging, and found some cool treasures.This is a cute picture taken of Kaitlyn and Christian yesterday while searching for rocks. She is 11 months old now. (She is getting SO big. And SO cute.)
This is the most recent picture of me, taken on Aidan's birthday. Note the dirty diaper resting next to me on the ground. And the giant Lego Hero Factory guy next to the diaper. Yep, that's my life!

Desert Mound looks fun! We'll have to check it out.

And I for one will be happy when April is over. Actually, let's just skip to the end of May and go straight to summer! I need some downtime!

I can't believe how old Ethan looks but then I haven't seen him in person since he was a toddler so what do I know.

Life never stops, does it? I never even heard of that place you went...it looks gorgeous! And I'm so ready for spring it hurts (as I look at the foot of snow that is still in my yard...)
