Kiss me!

Tonight after dinner, we went to Home Depot to grab a few things.

I said, "Kensington, why don't you give Smith a kiss?".  And she did....

Well, little did I know that Smith would become a kissing MACHINE!

   

I took 15 pictures of him kissing his sister.  She was laughing, he was kissing, I was snapping pictures and Andrew was paying for ferns.  Just another evening in the life of the Shull family.

Meet Bob

Our new BOB duallie stroller that is!  With sadness, my kids finally out grew my Phil and Ted's stroller.  I have pushed them hundreds of miles in that thing but it was finally time to retire it.  A neighbor unexpectedly asked me if she could buy it last week, so I knew it was the perfect time to move up to our new BOB.

 Instead of riding in the back, Smith gets a seat upfront.

 Everyone has to bring a toy to work out.

 My favorite part are the awnings that come down.  In the old stroller, Smith didn't have an awning but in this one, they practically cover them up entirely.  This will be especially nice when it's super cold outside.

 Lovin' his new ride

At the end of class.  Poor guy was so comfy, he fell asleep.

A big thanks to Sarah and Rachel for helping me pick the correct BOB and to Nancy for helping me figure out how to collapse it :).  What would I do without my girlfriends??!!

Petting Zoo Fun

On Saturday, we headed to our neighborhood's annual Easter extravaganza.  It was a beautiful morning for a petting zoo, train, bounce house and friends. 

 About to head out.

 Checking out the donkeys.

 A few of our favorite friends joined us: Ebby Lee and Nixon...

 ...Molly...

 ...her new little sister Maggie...

 ...and the New's newest, Rawston (and his big brother Jaxson that somehow avoided me during picture time).

 Papa Jay and Lovie drove over for the festivities.

 Sweet Ebby Lee

 Animal feeding time

 Please notice Ebby Lee in the background of all of these pictures.  Ebby Lee's mama has instilled a dislike for all animals into her sweet children.  (puppies, kitties, goats...everything).  She was a trooper and went into the petting zoo with my kiddos but did tell me specifically that she wasn't "petting a pig".  :)

 The Shull 4 boarded a train and headed out.

What a happy Spring day!
