This is funny. It's all about perspective, I suppose...
A couple at church is due with baby #2 and asked Kit and I from 1 (easy) to 10 (hard), what's it like having two kids.
I said....a solid 6. Not impossible, a little challenging at times but, definitely rewarding.
Kit said...3! Nothing to it.
Hmmm :)
This just made me laugh so hard because the other night he volunteered to take Porter with him (he is great like that!) to go pick up some dinner because we'd been working outside all afternoon. He looked at me very seriously and said..."Do you think I could just leave Porter in the car while I run in to get food?"
Me: "Ummm..no. That's not an option. He must be with you at all times."
Him: "Well, I'm just trying to figure out how I am going to hold both the food and Porter."

I love the little buckets that are personalized for Easter but it hit me...why not make them so they are usable for more than just Easter? That's how these came about...I went to good 'ole Tractor Supply and bought galvanized buckets. Then, I ordered vinyl lettering for the names and bought ribbon to make them more "eastery". You'll be seeing these on blogs from here on out. I plan on using these to wrap their birthday presents in, Their stockings for Christmas and any other time we choose to do a little something for them. That's why I just did black lettering so they are versatile throughout the year and hope this will be a tradition that sticks for many years!! I'll just use fun tissue paper or add like .50 ribbon for the holiday!
Total I have less than $10 in these...
And, the Easter Bunny went really practical this year. :)
Besides their outfits, it's mostly stuff for our upcoming trip to San Antonio. Swimming trunks, sunscreen, etc :).

I also realize I've missed Porter's weekly picture and Henry's monthly one. Oh well, we've been busy with life so we'll just pick up where we left off! :)
