Ben's Birthday

Ben loves "b-ball base" (his word for baseball) so I made him a baseball cake. I thought it turned out pretty good. It was fun to celebrate with grandma and grandpa Johnsen. Next year we will have mimi and bampa here and that will be even more fun!! I can't believe that my little guy is 2 years old. Here he is right before he opened his presents. He had a temperature of 103.5 Poor kid, but he still had fun.

Big boy, big driver.

Here is Ben's first car. He loves it and we are really glad that he got it for his birthday!!

Kate is really excited to celebrate Ben's birthday!!

Kate and Anna

Anna and Grandpa Johnsen. She loves him!! Ben got some mister potato head parts for Easter and loved wearing them himself.

Kate and Anna in matching Easter dresses. I never thought that I would have them match, but I love it!!!!

Easter

We had a fun easter. Ben really got into looking for the eggs and realizing there was candy in them. I had Herb read some Easter scriptures to the kids. This is the same look I expect from them when they are teenagers and we are reading scriptures on Easter morning. (probably the same look I had on my face when my mom made us read scriptures before hunting for eggs!!)

Ben and Anna hanging out.

Ben loves pirates lately and he makes pirate faces at us all the time. It's really cute!!

Spring pictures

Dying easter eggs was a lot of fun. Anna was really happy about it. It was so fun to have Bampa with us to dye eggs.

Ben, mom and Kate on Mom's birthday. They decorated the house soo very nicely. It was a great day!!

Blowing out the candles on my birthday cake. Thanks Sarah and Brad for an awesome birthday dinner. It was soo fun!!

This is Kate dancing at her school. The pictures didn't really turn out very well. Ben found an old pair of Kate's goggles and loved wearing them around the house.

This is Anna eating solids for the first time on March 17. She has done very well.
