Relaxing in Oceanside California

The first part of the week we stayed in Oceanside California our resort was really close to the Ocean.  We went for a walk on the boardwalk and stopped to eat at this little restaurant.  It was great being with the family!

 The boys can get Dylan laughing and smiling so good! 

 Corbin took a bite of a lemon and his face is priceless! 

 The boys looked so cute and peaceful while ASLEEP!

We attempted to do some family pictures while at the beach, they did not work so well.  When your boys are Vampires from never seeing the sun to get them to smile is kind of a joke!  So this was the best we got!

San Diego ZOO

While we were on our trip we decided to go spend a day at the San Deigo zoo.  It was pretty much one of the biggest Zoo I have been to.  Luckily we took a tour bus ride to see it all.

 Waiting in line to go on the air tran.

 My mom let Braxton take her camera and take all the pictures he wanted, that was the funnest thing for him he loved doing it! 

 Grandma Baldwin bought Corbin this cute wolf he loved it too bad he lost it after only having it two day he left it behind in the first condo we stayed at.  So long wolfy

Easter

We had a great Easter!  The Easter bunny was very kind to the kiddos like always they get spoiled!  We tried to focus on the Savior a little more this Easter so Sat. night we had lesson with a Easter egg hunt that held different things in them that were associated with a scripture.  It was a lot of fun and I think it helped the kids focus a little more on the Savior and what he did for us instead on just getting their Easter baskets!

 The boys were so EGGcited to color Easter eggs, even Dylan got in on the fun!

 He could not wait for a picture before he started in on the candy! Corbin and his spoils!

 Before Church it is really hard to get a good picture of all these boys now day! 

 We carried on the Baldwin tradition of doing a money Easter egg hunt!  It really makes those boys go after the eggs even when they are older!

 4 Months old! 

 Braxton and his spoils!

Tulip Festival

We went to the tulip festival again this year and it was great.  This time we went when they had the Easter egg hunt so the kiddos were excited to do that.   We also went with our good friends the Hoggards so the kids loved playing together and the Hoggards had us over for delicious waffles before we left.

Braxton's First Science Project

Braxton had a assignment for school to do a science project so of course I go and check out good old pinterest and found this fun project.  What happens when you put a bar of Ivory (it must be Ivory) Soap in the microwave???  You get a soap cloud that was pretty awesome and fun to play with!

 The results

 Playing with the cloud it crumbles up so play with it over something!

 We were able to add water and food coloring to the soap cloud pieces and then we put it into molds to make duck soap.  I never took a picture of the finished product because my hands were covered in soap and I could not hold the camera then  I just forgot! 

My cute goofy boys! 

Saint Patrick's Day

For St. Pattys day we decided to do a green dinner we had corn beef and cabbage.  I even made green rolls but I failed to get a picture of the dinner.  The corn beef did not turn out that great it was the first time I made it but everything else was pretty good.  We had our good friends the Wendlings over for dinner, it was fun to have the company.  Before they arrived  I made a treasure hunt for the boys.  They had to follow the clues to get to their pot of gold.  They loved it so it was great activity for St. Pattys Day!
