Our little Graduate

Audrey graduated from Little Laker's Preschool on March 16. At graduation each student introduced themselves, sang 4 songs: Bah Bah Black Sheep, Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, Hickory Dickory Dock - Audrey kept singing the second verse by herself while the rest of the group was silent, The Wheels on the Bus, then watched a DVD of pictures from their time at preschool. She was lucky to have such a great experience learning and playing with her friends Hattie, Mya, Jayden, and Tommy and making many new friends as well.

Back to work Mommy goes so Audrey came to work with me the last week of class. We brought her "activity" book as she calls it and she worked right along my side.

shhhh...

Snug as a bug in a ....Boppy??
Both the twins love to cuddle up on our chest and fall asleep, not always possible when home alone. So Super Nanny Leesa discovered during tummy time that after a while they would fall sleep on the Boppy and stay sound asleep. My trick on Saturday when home alone with the twins.

... Just like big sister, Nora likes the Bumbo at 7 weeks too....Audrey at 7 weeks in the Bumbo.

Creighton & Nora - Children of God

This past weekend Creighton and Nora were Baptized at Trinity Luther Church in DL and became Children of God.

We were blessed with many family members and friends to celebrate the event.

Grandpa Dennis came from FL to visit the Audrey and the twins.

Great Grandma Audrey feeding Nora, just like riding a bike!

Brother Ben reading and reading and reading to Audrey.

Saturday was Audrey's day, we baked muffins for church and then she went to craft time with Grandpa and Josh and learned how to make play dough.

Busy weekend, but when is it not busy at the Hochgraber household now a days!

Personalities of the Twins

Personalities come through via bath time!

Many ask what their personalities are like and last night we captured them!

Nora: Cool as a cucumber, not much bothers her....

Creighton: Fussing and a BIG sad face!

Again...calm and our sad little man (or it could be that he is in a gown!)

Winter is HERE!

or should I say SNOW is FINALLY HERE!

Today Audrey and I spent the afternoon playing in the snow!

It was perfect for building snow children.

I was getting a little tired so we only built Audrey (right), Nora (middle) and Creighton (left).

Both of us were rolling snow balls as big as ourselves.

A little exercise & preventative maintenance on the deck.

Maybe tomorrow we'll get to building mom and dad snowmen!

Our Children...

How blessed we are!
