We celebrated Prema's 9th birhday (legal) on Good Friday night. Kyle's parents and the Heuertz clan helped us celebrate. The week before Prema and I had made 3D butterfly invitations so I carried out the theme with a chocolate butterfly cake that cracked after I frosted it. Luckily it was on a piece of cardboard so we folded it back together for pictures and Prema was satisfied with my solution. She got lost of wonderful presents...mostly clothes to fit her new curves.
Eli is officially a toddler. He started walking unsupported at 10 1/2 months old. He is getting more confident and taking bigger steps. He wore his first pair of shoes yesterday; only his Crocs fit his fat feet. He loves the new freedom to roam the outdoors on the grass and cement without having to scrap up his knees. He gets up on the porch ledge and shouts along with mounting a small tittle trike.
Isaac will be turning 3 on Tuesday. He talks and reasons like a 4 or 5 year old. He has been keeping us busy with constant questions (a lot that the knows the answers to also), debates about what really is true (his world of truth is a bit skewed), and trying new lines and actions to get what he wants so as to appear to not be disobeying. He is also constantly still entertaining us with elaborate pretend play of many things related to church, the ice cream truck, football and now some baseball, Bob the builder/ construction, garbage truck, etc. He definitely keeps melting my heart with his cute facial expressions and "mature" body movements.

I was wondering how things were going - hadn't heard for a bit. Israel's feet are the same way. Croc's were the only thing I could find until my Mom bought some shoes a few sizes too big that are square enough to work. :) Sausage feet. Your kids are adorable.
These pictures are just so good.
Eli had the cuttiest smile on his face. You can see that he has the devil in his eye, just like his brother. His hair is just as blonde as Isaac's and yours when you were little.
Prema certainly is changing that is for sure. She looks much more grown up that is for sure.
Mr Isaac continues to steal my heart everytime I see his smile and listen to your reflections on his changing and growing mind. He is one smart little boy.
When Eli gets to be a little older, you will have 2 very smart young boys, who I am sure will keep you on your toes.
Love
Mom
