May-in a lot more pictures than 27

 My boys love dressing up in super hero costumes.  Cooper started at a younger age than Fisher since he had Fisher to look to as an example.


Baby Batman.

The boys don't only wrestle in bed.  Cooper loves pretending to go to sleep and Fisher likes "reading" to Cooper.  I love these moments when they are not fighting.  Wish there were more of these and less of the WWE.



Fisher wore this outfit as a baby.  Cooper never did since he was born in the summer.


Outside play time in Spiderman pajamas.  He would not let us take this top off to put on a regular shirt.

The boys would happily play with bubbles every day if I let them.





 Fisher spent a lot of time catching tadpoles and frogs in the backyard.  Here he is with his friend Garrett showing him how to catch them.


 



He showed Garrett how to catch them and let him put one in his cup. 

Obviously we have a little work to do on the whole sharing thing because this is Fisher's cup...
(And, no.  I have not been able to drink from these cups since.)

 Tucker decided he liked taking naps on his tummy.  He still does.


 Cooper's time is limited in his crib at the time this pic was taken.  Tucker sleeps in it now and while we do have a bed for Cooper, he doesn't like sleeping in it yet so he sleeps in a pack n' play in the corner of bedroom.

 Fisher has been really frustrating with all the changes lately.  One of the times when his good qualities really show are in regard to Tucker.  He absolutely adores that baby.





 I thought he was so cute that I could not choose a favorite.
Fisher- don't play with sticks.  You could poke an eye out!  Or in this case, the eyes of an entire small country.

 Cooper was not to be left out of the fun of playing with a tree.

 Run, Cooper, Run!!

 Fisher looking at bugs with his buddies, Cohen & Eli.  We miss you guys!

 Fisher and his best buddy, Cohen.

2/3 of our boys.



More tummy time.

Our house was invaded by a line of toys.

 It stretched form Fisher's room to the TV.

Fisher is a crazy sleeper.  This is the position I found him in one night. 

 Maybe he was dreaming about Superman?

Looking back at these pics makes me realize how big our baby has already grown.





 Love this picture of Fisher.


One of our last days in Louisville.  It was a rainy day with no people around and there was a scary stalker guy who I am almost positive was there scoping out the two McNeely Lake parks for little kids without parents. 


 This rock wall was covered in all sorts of educational comments by the teenagers who must frequent that park.  The spot where Fisher is sitting is a special place for some underage lovin' if what is written there has any truth behind it. 

Fisher would not be Fisher without bugs.


 Cooper has started to scare me with his death defying love of hanging off high locations.



 We were rained out and spent a cold, wet lunch under the gazebo while the pedophile man continued to drive laps right by us. It made for a memorable lunch date with our friends. :)
 Somewhere around 2 1/2 months old...

The end.
Until tomorrow.

April in 27 pictures

Here are random pictures throughout April.  Tucker was starting to look less like a little alien newborn and more like the baby he is today.




Fisher and Cooper enjoy playing together on Fisher's bed.  They loved it in Louisville and they love it in Omaha.  We could move the bed into the middle of a road and they would be oblivious as long as they are both in there to beat eachother up.




Cooper discovered light swtiches.  He is still going through that phase.  He also loves sockets.  Never had that problem with Fisher so Cooper will probably be the one to be electrocuted.  We have the child safety plug ins and everything but he knows how to take them out so he can stick other objects in.  He also has figured out the door safety handles.  It is a little chaotic with him in the house.


 All four boys.



Before we left Louisville, there were some pretty big thunderstorms.  A few trees in the back yard fell victim to the strong winds. 
(Really miss our beautiful back yard in Loiusville but love having a fence here.  Wish we could have combined the two.)



April was Easter.  Never too late to put up holiday pics right?




G&G Church & Jedd came down Easter weekend to spend it with the boys and to bless Tucker.  Blessing Tucker was a little impromptu but I think it was special to have him blessed on Easter Sunday.




Some of the first smiles on camera.


We have pictures of all three boys slung over Todd's shoulder while sleeping.

Visits from G & G Church

After my mom went home I was lucky enough to have Mom Church come and stay with me to help with the kids (and to get her fill of a certain snuggly little newborn...:)  Once again (and for about the next ten posts) these pics are unedited.











Grandpa and Uncle Jedd came to visit and see the kids later on.  We had a few different visits with them over the course of the spring: When Mom C. stayed with us, Easter weekend, Mom C's birthday, Todd's graduation and when we moved.  We went up to Cinci the beginning of June.  More pics on all those to come.





One of my favorite pictures.  So classic...and yet so typical for my boys. :)
