New Pics of Ollie

Well, my hard drive was fried so they are getting me a new one at no additional cost. But, I have to pay for them to back up my pics and stuff, that's worth it though! Hopefully I will get my computer back next week. I have some good pics on my camera just waiting to be posted on the blog as soon as I get my computer back!

In the meantime here are some pics to hold you over. My Mom has been picking Ollie up from "school" (daycare) so that he does not have to stay there 11 hours a day. Then they go out and play at the parks or at her house. Here are some pics of Ollie at the City Centre gazebo where Erin will get married!

Broken Computer :(

Sorry I have not posted for awhile but my computer is broken! So sad!!! I took it to the Geek Squad yesterday and still have not heard back from them yet. After about 5 min it will just lock up and you cannot even use ctrl, alt, delete. Of course I have lots of things to put on here but it will have to wait until I can hook my camera up again. I just hope that I do not lose all the pics that are on my computer then I will be really sad. We went to Champaign this weekend to see a good friend of mine and her 3 little boys and I had some good pics hopefully I will still have them whenever I get my computer back. Keep checking I hoping it will be safe at home again later this week!

Soccer, Chairs & Chandelier!

This morning Ollie did not want to play soccer at all except for this one part. He could hardly control himself from climbing through the rings.

Then we moved on to Hancock's for some fabric for my dining room chairs and found the perfect fabric for the dining room and some for the kitchen!

It took awhile to put them all together (10 chairs in all!) but they all turned out really good.

Sunday night Chris put up a chandelier with a light switch in the dining room. Have I ever said how much I love my husband. I simply say wouldn't it be nice to have a beautiful light in the dining room that we could turn on with a light switch? And the next thing I know he is up in the attic can cutting holes in the celing! Fabulous!

The kitchen chairs were an afterthought but when I saw the fabric I just knew it would go perfect in there.

Yes, all of our chairs now have plastic coverings. A little tacky but necessary when you have a 2 year old!

Easter Afternoon!

We went to Grandma Ames'. She has a huge celebration. Here is Ollie and Rose playing a game.

Ollie and Beth.

Beth, Ollie & Uncle Brad playing with the tire swing.

Cooper is Cousin Cloe's new puppy! Ollie likes Cooper!

Ready Set Go!!! The littles get a head start!

Everyone gets to hunt for eggs.

Tyler found the golden egg! It had $20 in it! Christopher is trying to steal it from him.

Brad & Chris look like they are up to something!

An hard-boiled egg fight! Yuck!

Time for fishing?

All the fishing poles had magnets on the end and Betty had made Easter Eggs with fins on them and put magnets on them. Only one problem...the fishing bucket was metal so all the magnets stuck to the side of the tub!

Ollie really liked the fishing!

Time to go on a hike in the woods for another clue to find the baskets! Daddy & Uncle Brad took Ollie after everyone else ran off without him.

Papa Ames' car. He has been working on restoring it for awhile. It is very loud!

Ollie likes it when they rev the engine. It was so loud!!!

They found the baskets. They are all locked in the van!

Everyone gets a basket!

Here bunny try the bunny glasses on!

Time to whack the pinata!

Ollie waiting patiently for his next turn. Ollie and Uncle Brad were inseparable. They really have a good time together!

Christopher, Kristina, Beth & Cassie

Candy!!

Kristina & Beth.

Kristina & Tyler

Wow, what a busy day! But, it was so much fun, thanks for the great Easter Celebration Bill & Betty!!!

Easter Morning

Well it looks like the Easter Bunny stopped by our house.

He brought Ollie an Batman w/motorcycle! And lots of candy!

Nothing like having Peeps for breakfast!

Maw Maw's home!!! She brought Ollie a big egg w/a very real looking mouse and more candy!

Ollie refuses to touch the mouse! He thinks it is real! But finally now he will pick him up but only by his tail.

The bunny even hid eggs in our front yard.

Ollie found them all!

He only spilled 2 eggs. Oh well the squirrels will like it.

In the middle of hunting for eggs Ollie decided that running under the flag was fun and just ran in circles several times. He's so silly! Now we are off to Grandma Ames' house. She has a very big Easter celebration so check back later. Not sure if I will get the post on tonight or not but I will try! Happy Easter Everyone!

Saturday Afternoon at Papa's

Saturday afternoon we went to Papa's new house. They have not moved in yet but he got a new toy for outside! The "Mule"! Ollie went for a ride to find the basket that the Easter Bunny left for him!

A spiderman bucket with lots of goodies!!

Then Papa and Ollie had lots of work to do!

After they were done most of us went out to eat and when we got back Tyler got to drive the Mule all by himself. He was going fast and making me very nervous but he did a good job, no wrecks, thank goodness. I think Ollie and Tyler will like Papa's new house!
