This is the Place State Park

For Memorial Day Weekend we went to This is the Place State Park with my family. Ethan LOVED the train ride. I think this is where his obsession with trains -choo, choos - as he calls them started. He now has 2 Thomas the Train movies, 3 Thomas and Friends trains, 2 Thomas books, and 1 pair of Thomas pajamas. He loves them all. He wore his pajamas for 3 days straight. And the day Chris finally changed his clothes he found them, brought them to daddy, and said, "pease" (please). So of course Chris had no choice but to put them back on. I didn't know that one little train ride could turn our life into "choo, choos" mania.
There was also a small petty farm. Ethan was pretty scared of most of the animals. But we finally got him to touch the bunny and the goat. All this dad's help of course. It was a fun day and we enjoyed spending time with family.

Easter

About a week before Easter we had a small Easter/house warming party with my family. Here is Ethan and Kambri eating the jelly beans - their favorite part.

Becky, Ryan, and Ellie came to stay with us for Easter weekend. Becky tuned our piano (thank you Becky, it really needed it after moving). Ethan LOVED Elli. Here he is holding her and saying "baby" over and over. I hope he loves his new sister as much as Elli.
Easter morning. Ethan got a movie, a children's CD, a Mr. Potato head, and some candy. Of course he went for the eggs full of candy first.
