Lets start with Owen. I took Owen to an Allergist on March 17 to see if was allergic to cats. His asthma was getting worse and we were doing a lot of extra meds on him. It come back positive to cats and dogs. So no pets for us, unless he out grows it which he could. We asked around and one of the kids I watch knew someone looking for a cat. So Snowball went to her. I am so grateful that he did. Owen is getting better. We still have to do breathing treatments once a day but it last like 5 min. so it is not too bad. He takes them pretty good. He ears are doing great. No current infections and he is now running. So I guess he got his balance back. Great.
Mia is getting ready to start Tee ball. We have our first practice tonight. We also register her for school last week. We also signed her up for summer school. I am a mean mommy. It will be good for her to get use to going and it is only half day. We also had her tested to see if she is ready for kindergarten. She scored a 90 out of a possible 99. She would have done a little better if she was not so worried about the other little girl in the room.
Hope everyone had a great Easter. We were so busy. We dyed eggs on Saturday. I let Owen dye on himself. He dropped it in and then stirred it. He kept licking the spoon. After it was done he held up the egg for a picture and then smashed it in the table. Mia had a great time dying eggs she loves it so much. On Sunday we had a egg hunt. Mia does not get the traditional egg hunt. She has clues to follow to her basket. She loves doing this.

After breakfast we got ready and went to Derek's parents for lunch.
Kristina's daughter, Adriana is so cute. (Kristen is Brent's girlfriend. Brent is Derek's brother for those who didn't know) She and Owen get along really well. She kept trying to kiss and hug on Owen. He was not into it that day. But we did catch them holding hands.
We then went to Delmar Garden's to visit Derek's grandparents. It was Grandpa's birthday. We went to visit. We had a pretty good turn out.

Afterwards we went back to Derek's parents to watch the Masters and eat dinner. We got home pretty late and I was beat.
Mia and Owen
Owen love a little girl I watch named Cooper. He is always hugging and kissing her. Derek says Owen is too young to understand irony. But it is a great example. Today Cooper was all about giving out kisses. So Owen went and got one. I snapped a picture.
Derek got back safe and sound from Austria. He brought back some wonderful chocolate and a loud, German speaking police car. His plane was late so I spent an hour and half at the airport with two tired kids. It was so much fun.
Owen has his 15 month check up on the 20th and Mia is doing the March of Dimes walk on the 25th so I should have some pictures up after that. It will be a couple of days since I have a bachelorette party on the 25th as well. Can't wait Toni. Hope you enjoyed all the pictures.
