Sunday we got to see all the neighborhood kids. There was about 20 kids over playing on our swing set. Some people had to eventually leave because they knew their hubbies would be worried because the were gone so long. It just seems where our house is all kids want to come and stay. Kyle and Hans were shaking the tree we planted last year.

We went to the family fun day at church. Hans got to see the croc, play in the moonwalks and his usual favorite play on the choo choo side. We ran into some people from college who go to one of the other church campuses.
The other day we went to pick up Mark from the train.
Hans: Go to choo choo
Mom: yes we are going to pick Dad up from the train.
Hans:ya ya choo choo
We pull in the Metra Station
Hans: No choo choo mom?
Mom: choo choo is coming
The train pulls up and Mark gets off. Hans started to crying.
Hans: No choo choo Mama, Dada (in between many tears).
We realized every time he thinks he is seeing a train, he is going to church. He wanted to go play on the train slide at church.

Ellie Bells loves her cup, and we love her cup because it is the only time she is quite. Yesterday she said bye to Dana, and Andrew.

The weather has been so great so we have been outside. It is nice because Hans has been able to see most of his friends.

Friday night we did a game night. We played hungry hippo's, trouble, croc dentist, and boxing. We also took down the Dickens houses, and switched to the cows.

Elle is walking every where and into everything. I have drawers that I don't have locks on because Hans never bothered with them. She is so the opposite. She decided to open one and start throwing the plastic lunch baggies all over the kitchen. Her she is on her way to try to figure out how to get the cabinets open that have locks on them.

When we returned home from our trip I had to have Ellie try on her light up bunny ears. She loved them. It was hard to know what to get her. We are having the same trouble with finding a gift for her birthday. Any suggestions?
