April started off with a bang as I spent some time in Mexico for a press trip and enjoyed much sun, sand and water. Yet that was just the beginning of a great month ahead – April was an entire month of enjoying the beautiful outdoors. Rubber boots were a must this Spring yet after a few days, all the snow was gone. Hooray for seeing grass again!
Easter weekend was a great time with family, even though my daughter ended her weekend with a 24 hr bug {bleh}. Luckily, I have learned a few tricks on quarantine and sanitization – she was the only one to get it. Knock on wood, I’ve been fairly lucky when it comes to sickness not passing through the entire house.
Miss Isabelle wrapped up her 2013/2014 cheer season with a competition for the record books. During their routine, they lost music halfway through, which causes a lot of teams to panic and freeze. Hers kept going without missing a beat and finished like the music didn’t stop. It was remarkable!
To those that can never tell my twins apart {even though there is a noticeable size difference}, now you really can! Miss Katie is now sporting a short sassy bob. Sophia gave a firm NO WAY in cutting her locks, she IS Rapunzel after all. I’m hoping Katie’s huge cut will kick start it into growing more, she still has mostly baby hair. You guys! I cut off baby hair!!
Oh, and then there was the time that the universe tugged on my heart. Yeah, it’s been a one!
So, how was your April 2014?

Don’t forget to print each month off and by years end you’ll have a year in photos for an album, without much effort required.

That sounds like a fun April (except for the bug!). It always amazes me how the months fly by or is it just me? I think that’s cool that the twins are differentiating themselves.
April says
My April was awesome. I am one year older and did not get much for my bday. Saving my bday money for a new camera.

April was bitter sweet for me – our biggest things were celebrating our 20th Wedding Anniversary, picking up our daughter’s cap & gown for her high school commencement next month (sob) and her 18th birthday (louder sob!).

I can hardly believe April ends today! It’s been full of not so fun things… sick kids, root canal for me, and a series of things breaking (car, coffee pot and oven.)
Jennifer Soltys says
It’s so great that you do this! Your girls are too cute and it’s neat to watch them develop their little individual personalities!!

Let’s see. We finally cleared strep throat from our house. We had it back and forth since January. My son learned a cartwheel in gymnastics. We built a chicken coop
My in laws were almost tolerable
For Easter. 😉
