Superman power

Last night we were having Family Home Evening with our neighbors. We were discussing testimonies and what type of things we have testimonies about. So I was asking the kids (Eli and Stella) about what type of power their dad's had that we could have a testimony about. Eli proudly and loudly answered with a jump, "SUPERMAN POWER!!!!" We all had a good chuckle after that.
In other news, Oliver has sprouted his two bottom teeth this last week and Emerson is not far behind with one and the second one promising arrival any day. They are really enjoying rice cereal now, and are finally sleeping at night again!!! Almost 9 hours straight!! Hopefully this time it sticks!!
The weather is finally nice, so we enjoying short trips outdoors. Eli is trying to get rid of all his pent up energy, so that is nice. I look forward to a spring/summer filled with nice weather, long walks and outdoor play dates.

Pool Party and Attacking the Dog

Eli and the other neighbors after being boxed inside all winter, decided to have a pretend pool party. And what better place to do this than the bath tub, and of course what pool party isn't complete without bubbles, a half a bottle of bubbles. It was fun for the kids. Eli has recently informed us that"he likes girls" and only girls, thus the pool party with two girls. I am going to have watch this boy. He is going to be a lady's man.

Oliver and Emerson really enjoy these dogs. Here are a few pictures of Emerson attacking his doggie. It was pretty funny. He rolled across the entire floor with his dog.

Several quick stories. I recently have become acquainted with a deaf woman named Stefanie. We pick her up on Tuesdays and take her to an elementary school where she teaches sign language to some kids. Anyway, over that past three weeks I have been trying to explain to Eli that she can't hear what he is saying, despite him yelling it at the top of his lungs sometimes. This has been a good opportunity for me and for him, because I have been able to reintroduce myself to sign language and the deaf community, and Eli has been able to pick up some new signs. Anyway, yesterday we were heading out to pick up Stephanie, and before we leave in the car we always say a prayer. Eli usually offers it. Now here comes the sweet part, after asking that we would be careful, Eli blessed Stephanie that her ears would get better. I thought how sweet and considerate of him. Although he doesn't fully understand that she can't hear, he knows that he can ask Heavenly Father to help her "ears get better". It make me smile.
The other sweet moment happened a couple of minutes ago. I was reading the twins a book before I laid them down for a nap, so I had both on my lap. As I was reading I looked down, and they were holding hands. I wish I could of gotten a picture of it. It was so sweet, both intent on the pictures in the book, and holding hands. I love moments like that. Anyway here are some pictures.
