Kylie said a prayer the other night that I thought was pretty cute. Two of her lines included this:
Thankful that I read my scriptures
Thankful that the gospel serves out bread

Happy Easter
I tried to get some pics of Kylie and Gavin before church. I'm surprised I got them to look at the camera at the same time.
Here is what I'm used to; Kylie NOT looking at the camera. I think she was curious what the guys were doing around the corner.

Kylie showing her loot, but still looking for other eggs so can't take her eyes off the ground to look at the camera.
Gavin had no desire to hunt for eggs. He picked up two through out the whole hunt. He liked to carry these toys around and just run back and forth across the yard.

New Drinking Style
Gavin has been doing some funny things lately. One of them is that he puts his sippee cup in another cup and holds that cup to drink.
You know those cups from restuarants? The plastic ones. Well, I keep them so Gavin can play with them and I don't care if they get ruined. They are in a drawer that I let him play in. Lately, when I give him his sippee cup, he will go to the drawer and get out a restaurant cup. He puts his sippee cup in the restaurant cup and holds that cup to drink from his sippee. I don't know what made him start to do this, but I find it really funny and clever.
This day I had a big tupperware on the counter. He was reaching for it so I handed it to him, not knowing what he would do. Turns out he needed something to put his sippee cup in so he could drink.

T-Ball
Kylie is learning T-Ball at school. This is her first game.
They are pitched 2 balls and if they don't make contact, they hit off the stand.

Field Trip to Santa Ana Zoo
Kylie was able to go on her second field trip with her preschool class. She had a fun time. Gavin and I were able to go also, along with her friend's mom & little brother. The girls had a great time. The boys both did well in their strollers. They got to stretch their legs a couple times, but not for long.

Gavin likes to grab Kylie's headbands and play with them. Tonight he got to wear her ears just long enough for a pic

I am crazy with the clippers
Tyrus has always asked me to try cutting his hair and I always refused because I have never cut guys hair before. After many years, I finally decided to try it. Thank goodness he is a good sport. It didn't turn out bad after he touched it up for me, but I definitely wouldn't call it great.
Today I decided it was time to try the clippers on Gavin. I have cut his hair 5 times already in the past 9 months. It grows pretty fast. I usually just use my hair cutting scissors on him, however it can get a little tricky around the ears and neck because he moves a lot. It was never perfect, but it worked.
Lately though his hair has been seeming long and shaggy. I will make it look really handsome and then by the time it dries, it is all falling forward again.
I thought I would use the clippers and make it about an inch long. Well...as you can see, that didn't happen. I kept trying to fix one side to make it match the other and before I knew it, he had a buzz cut. He had a really small mohawk and I thought I would make sure all the hairs were even so decided to go over it again. Well, I used the wrong size guard and made it even shorter. The mohawk would've only stayed for a few days (per Tyrus's request) before I made it all even anyway.
Gavin laughed when we showed him his new hair (or lack of it) in the mirror, however I think he didn't recognize himself later. We were in the family room and he kept looking at the glass sliding door. It showed his reflection because it was dark outside. He kept running over to me like he was afraid of something. I realized he was seeing himself and maybe didn't recognize his new look.
Personally, I think he looks adorable, but I am his mother :-)
