Easter 2009

We have had a busy couple of days. Here are a few things that we have been able to do this week while Nathan was on spring break.

We went and met the Easter bunny. There always seems to be one kid that isn't happy to see either the Easter Bunny or Santa. This year was Kai!

We still got the pictures just to prove to him when he is older how silly he acted when meeting the Easter Bunny! :) Even Gabi doesn't look too sure! Koa is content. He is being held by a fuzzy creature!

We got the kids pictures taken together. Gabi loves holding her little brother!

Gabi still loves to pose for pictures. She will be turning 4 in less than a month. She is getting so big!

We missed Kai's 2 year old pictures because of Koa being born early. So better late than never, here are Kai's 2 year old pictures.

Having Kai hold these trucks was the only way he would take the picture. It is still very cute.

Recently Kai has thought it was funny anytime someone sneezes. He will make fake sneeze sounds and just crack up. That is what we had to have the photographer do to get him to smile. Hopefully he will outgrow this stage!

Gabi wanted to take a picture with these fairy wings. She was very excited.

Koa is turning 2 months old this week. These are his first pictures.

Awake picture.

The kids and I made a Easter Bunny House.

Kai did really good at the beginning putting the gum drops on the walkway...then he just started eating the candy.

Gabi showing off her project. She did all the candies around the doors, windows, and roof.

Before Kai would pose for this picture he had to check to see if there were any candies left in the blue bowl.

Last week I put french braids in Gabi's hair. When we took them out her hair was cinky and he kept saying that it looked like Auntie Em's hair, and that she wanted curly hair again when she saw Emi. So, for the first time we tried sponge rollers in her hair. Look below to see how it turned out.

All her hair ready to go. Now she just needs to sleep with them in.

Opening up Easter baskets in the morning.

Kai checking out his basket.

Gabi got a new ball to play with out back.

Kai got a new ATV car. Later in the day he was trying to ride on it. It was pretty funny.

Family all together after church.

Gabi after church in her new dress Grandma got her.

Wow, curly!! I don't remember my hair ever being this curly when my mom would put sponge rollers in my hair. Gabi's hair was just tight tight curls.

As we got to church, Gabi told Grandma, "Look! I look like Annie and Auntie Em." Gabi likes the movie Annie.

The family put together an egg hunt for the kids. Kai had an interesting way to play...

He would look to see if he could open the egg, and then would stop and eat the candy. After he got some candy, he wasn't too worried about looking for more eggs.

Gabi was very excited to look for the eggs.

"Look mom, I got a Diego egg."

Eating more candy.

Check out Gabi's cute hair bows. I made them this morning before church to match her dress. They happened to match her outfit also.

Kai spending some time with his favorite uncle, Michael. (No offense other uncles!) They are walking Lolo.

Kai walking Lolo all by himself. Such a big boy!

All wiped out on the way home.

Another wiped out little kid!

A third wiped out kid = A very quiet car ride home!

Our little Easter present this year.

Obviously he was bored with me taking so many pictures. Look at that big yawn!

This was Gabi stalling to go to bed. Still super curly hair!
