Happy March!

We've been struggling to stay healthy the past few weeks. We all had a round of bad stomach flu. Then this Tues Erik got his very first ear infection. Despite all that we still had a really fun Family Home Evening Monday night!
Erik was in charge of the activity-he chose bowling. This is his own twist on bowling. Why use a small ball that only knocks a few pins over at a time when you can use a BAT. He's so efficient.
I LOVE that he can set them up himself! Paul caught a video of Erik hitting the pins with the bat and we both laughed as Erik said, "Horray!" after he knocked them all down.

Mommy was in charge of treats. yummy yummy Ice cream cones!


Yes he's on the couch with a VERY messy dessert and NO he will NOT be allowed to do that again for a VERY long time. I had to wash my pillows and a little bit of the couch.
Lesson learned :)



Erik having some fun with his cousin Kara. I thought they were so cute reading together.


Now you can tell that it's Erik. Elmo's manners book is one of his favorite new books. We read it a lot, but hey it works. Erik is great at saying, "Thank you...You're welcome"


If anyone doubts that Erik is the son of Paul, I think this picture should be adaquate proof.
In Paul's Senior pictures he's wearing his hair all spiky like this.


Cheese! Look at my clean teeth!

LOL! Such a little BOY! Anything that he can hit with a bat, he will do so willingly and with a smile! :) Can't wait to spend some time with you guys this summer!
