Happy Birthday Canon!

Yes, two posts in one day. But I'm just getting caught up :) Canon turned 4 this week! As he says every time he eats, "Mom, I'm growing up!" Then I sometimes respond "No, Canon, stop growing!" When I don't say that, he reminds me that is what I'm supposed to say and prompts me, "Mom, say 'stop growing'". Pretty predictable dialog at or house during meal time. But he is just so excited to get bigger and grow up. He asks every day if he is big enough to go to school yet. For his birthday he got some new trucks and a parachuter to throw off the landing in our house. It was so cute after he opened his presents - I heard him in his room introducing his new trucks to his other ones. He calls his trucks "his kids". He is very imaginative. Never know what he is going to be for the day. Lately it is a snake. He builds snake holes with the pillows off the couch and crawls through them. He definitely keeps life interesting! We love you Canon!

Easter Update

It's a little late, but here is the Easter update. I have to admit, I wasn't the best Easter Bunny, but with all the easter egg hunts that were available for us to attend, it didn't seem necessary. Instead I did get my kids some new religious DVD's to help make our long Sunday afternoons a little more Sundayish, since we are done with church by noon. But Monday we did go to an Easter Egg hunt at a care center. Canon did a great job helping pass out cookies to the residents, and Savana was great at picking up Easter Eggs. Canon got a basket full too. We had such a great time, we are going back next month. Next month we are helping with their Bingo games. It was so much fun to see Canon being so helpful. And you could tell he loved being so useful.
