Been too busy having fun!

The week before Easter, our niece Nikki flew all the way from Florida to party with us during her spring break. We had lots of fun showing her around Austin and just hanging out. Of course, Nikki & I took lots of time to go shopping, paint nails & watch movies. We stumbled across a carnival and she took the boys on a fun ride.

South Congress Food Truck Park. The food was SO AMAZING. There were probably a dozen food trucks and all varieties. I ordered some DELICIOUS peanut chicken & rice....I'm still dreaming about how yummy it was and planning my next trip there.

And we got snowcones for dessert =)

Between family coming to visit and our own trips out of town, we have lots of good playtime at home. Last week we set up camp in the toy room. The boys piled nearly every toy, stuffed animal, pillow & blanket they could find inside and slept in the tent 4 nights in a row. We will definitely have to do this again - they had so much fun!

So, this is Josiah's bug jar FULL of ladybugs!! He is the expert in finding and catching ladybugs from our backyard. You may not see it in the photo, but he probably had a dozen in his jar at the moment. Turns out that a few of the ladybugs were smaller than the airholes in the lid and they actually crawled out of the jar. So....the jar went back outside =)

Jason took his Sunday nap in the tent.

We joined some friends to visit a farm & were able to enjoy the perfect weather as well. Here's Arlo with a hen. The boys were also able to each take home an egg, laid by the hens there - they thought that was pretty cool!

And in other news....Miles has been working on some pretty impressive skills lately. He has 2 fists FULL of waffle pieces while drinking from his milk bottle. (A baby has to hold on to all of his stuff around here - a big brother might snatch it away;)

And while visiting daddy in McAllen, he learned how to crawl around with his booster seat still attached!! Daddy, you really need to get chairs so we can buckle the booster down. haha =)
