We have been chugging along here in lovely Minnesota, experiencing a rather cold and wet spring. Aside from a day here and there with decent weather, things have really only warmed up the last couple of days! Ah well, the boys have continued to grow and blossom even in spite of the chill.
We enjoyed a trip to the Children's Museum at the end of March with a friend. Gregory really had so much fun and even Asher was entertained in the baby room. He was just starting to really crawl and pull up on things at that point. Now he is really fast and cruising around the furniture too.
Asher has been ramping up on eating solid foods in the last 6 weeks or so. He really kinda took off with it and is now eating a lot of most things that we eat. He hasn't really met a food he doesn't like yet! He gets an adorable pathetic look on his face when we are eating and he doesn't have any. Then he yells at me until I give him some, or at least something that he can have! He is pretty efficient, especially considering he only has 3 teeth! He finally cut the first one at the beginning of April, and it was the top one, which is unusual. He is pretty cute with those little pearly whites, though!
The boys had a pretty laid back Easter this year since we had all suffered with the stomach flu for the previous week. But we did manage to pull together some baskets and do a little egg hunting.
Grandpa Mike and Grandma Coralie were in town for Mother's Day and we went to a nice brunch. However, the weather was dreary, and the boys were rowdy, so it was rather humorous to attempt taking any nice family pictures...
I try to get the camera out sometimes when cute things are going on, but both Asher and Gregory get weird and distracted by it, so I am not usually lucky enough to catch the best moments. Here are some of my attempts though!
One more thing and then we are pretty much caught up for now. Last Saturday, Gregory had his first dance performance! It was an informal class showing for his Creative Movement class, but it was at the U of M Dance Center, with lots of people there, so it was pretty neat. He had such a fantastic time this past year in Dance Class and we are really thankful to Miss Denise for her wonderful teaching!
