Easter Choir Program

 John loves to dress up and I am so glad b/c he looks so cute, except his boots have a lot of "character".  Whitley loves her new gold shoes, they are fun!

It is always interesting every time 3, 4 and 5 years olds get on stage.  The first song, I don't know if anyone sang, but the next two songs had some parts they could really get loud and they really sang!  The older kids had a good concert too, I cry every time!!!

Siblings...

Joseph update

Joseph is 7 months old!  He is doing great!  At his 6 month check up he weighed 19lbs 2oz.  He is a chunk.   He is finally sleeping through the night and he is sitting up like a champ.  Rolling over.....well at least he has done it twice now instead of once.  He has the fattest rolls and they are oh so squeezable.  He smiles all the time and loves playing with his toys in the living room while watching big brother and sister play.  I have learned that is doesn't matter if it's your third child, you still don't know exactly what you are doing.  But the most important thing I have learned is; it doesn't matter if it is your third child, your love is just as strong for number 3 as it is for number 1 and 2.  We love him so much!

Western Day at School

Kurt went to Western Day at school with John.  They had a full day of fun complete with a longhorn.  Kurt had a good time and John loved having his Daddy there.  We provided the hay, ropes and roping dummies and John felt pretty special that all his stuff was there.

Do you believe in Magic?

 Ladies and gentlemen, the great Hinkle Houdinis!!  We found a fun magic store when we were in Vegas so we brought back magic tricks for the kids and they put on a magic show for us.  It is funny to hear their magic words.

 A flower came out of his magic wand.

The audience.

Ready for Church

 They boys were matching so we had to get pictures.  I also wanted to get a picture of Whitley's cute dress! 

March Madness

 Whitley and John Wayned, I mean, John Clayton...John loves John Wayne movies so he has been dressing like him lately.

 Above, Whitley before Church...she's not at all thrilled to take a picture, but I wanted a picture of this dress.  It is so pretty and I haven't taken a picture of all her pretty Church dresses this year, so I made her on that day, like it or not.

 One day during Spring Break our good friend Kaleb came over to play after we met him and his Mom at McDonalds for breakfast.  His Mom, my good friend Erin, thought I was crazy for taking on another kid, but really what is one more when you have 3 of your own...

Joseph tried out a sippy cup the other day...it is more fun to throw around than to drink out of at this point!
