Pictures from the last month

Here are just a few pics from the last month. I will do a bigger post when Mark has his 6-month visit in a week or so.
Hanging out with Oma


Looking at himself on the computer



A nice portrait


A bath moment...


Over Spring break, Matthew went to the butterfly exhibit at the Botanical Gardens.

Birthdays Galore...

This month, on Easter, we celebrated the fact that Matthew is now 8...yep, 8. My mom turned...well, I won't share her age, but let's just say that next year is a big one! And today, Mark is 6 months old. Wow. What a month...and some pretty cool milestones.

Here are some pictures from Easter...
This is the 8-year old with Mickey Mouse ears I bought like 4 yrs ago...they finally fit!

Mark and Aunt Cait...enjoying the beautiful weather on Easter Sunday

Joe smoked 16 pounds of ribs - and they were gooooood!

(or so I hear...my current diet doesn't allow ribs)

A New Journey

Well, I have started a new journey...me and my HCG! Yep, I am trying that diet/lifestyle change that's out there and has been helping people lose weight for years. Yesterday was my first VLCD day and I survived. The shots aren't bad at all...can't even feel them, really. Maybe it's because I have so much extra fat on me...LOL! But, have lost 4lbs so far - WOO HOO! Every little bit counts, right?

I will update as I can...more fun things to come about the boys in the next day or so.
