Pulling up more layers of flooring, Travis had to replace this section of floor, due to it being damaged.

So cute, when he sleeps, here it looks like he is pinching his nose while sleeping.  Maybe he had a poopy diaper

Samuel was roller skating so fast, I had a hard time getting a picture of him.

We got home from our retreat to see all the messages the electrician left for the drywaller, we thought it was funny.

Caleb missed his scooter while at the retreat, and has been taking it everywhere with him, he bathes with it, sleeps with it, and takes it everywhere we go.

My april fool's day dessert

Austin brought me Malachi in this box, and he was covered by the towel, and she said it was april fool's day present, I opened it to find it to be Malachi, (she even gave him a roll to chew on, to keep him quiet

Kitchen in progress

I haven't blogged in over a month, so there are way too many things that I have forgotten by now, but the main thing is that Malachi is crawling around like crazy, and getting into everything.  He has two little teeth, and loves to chew on anything he can get his hands on.  We have still been working on remodeling our kitchen, we went to Estes Park, CO for a retreat during spring break, and had a great time.  When we came back, we bought some baby chicks, and we had a fun april fool's day dinner.  Caleb missed his scooter while we were gone, and goes everywhere with it.
