ALLLL the April pictures...

I FINALLY GOT TO SEE HAMILTON!  After buying season tickets and waiting two years, Rebecca and I finally got to go see Hamilton together.  Needless to say, we loved it.

Ari, Maya, and I went to celebrate Passover with Isaac at his school.

Here is Maya discovering the joy of coloring in a waiting room.

She is just getting to such a fun (and busy) age.

Zev was trying to teacher her how to use the crayons.

She gave up coloring to crawl all over Isaac watching a movie on the floor.

On Good Friday, we went with the Richardson family to the zoo.

Our six crazy boys have a good time together.


They also all happen to love visiting the reptile house.

And climbing on them...

We tried to shove poor Maya in to one photo opp.

Everyone needs their picture in an egg right?


Poor Maya started to feel bad at the zoo. We went home and she had a high fever of 103.5.

The next day she got all of these spots.

Here are the kids a few days later at an Easter egg hunt with friends.

Maya loves "Ta Ta."

Here is Maya at the ENT's office.  She just loves their fish tank.  She lights up when she watches the fish. The ENT said that Maya needed tubes, and we decided to get them the following Monday. 

Maya and I went to a friend's house to play.  On the way home, we stopped to shop at Costco and have some pizza.


Maya really loves pizza.

Here she is that afternoon in the waiting room again.  She was trying to sit in Isaac's lap and give him all the hugs.



By the time we came home for dinner, Maya was too tired to make it through.  I put her up in her high chair with a snack while I was cooking for everyone.  I looked over, and she was passed out.

Poor thing.

Then I went to check on Isaac who had been watching a tv show on the ipad.  He had suffered the same fate as Maya.

Here she is the next morning in the bathtub.  She loves to see how things feel on her face. I think maybe the bubbles tickle.
 
 


Here is Maya a few days later playing in the front yard.  She loves to be outside.


The following Monday Maya had her tubes put in. She did really well, and even though she woke up very upset, she was back to normal after a nap and some lunch.  Here are the pictures I sent Ari proving she was feeling back to herself again.

This one cracks me up.



She went on a long run with me and dog.  I noticed even within the first day that she was already hearing sounds better on our walks.

Isaac was exhausted again.  I'm not sure this guy has enough stamina for big kid summer camp or even kindergarten.

And last, but not least in April news: Zev pulled out his tooth! He really likes to take them out at school for the big tooth necklace.

Blue Bonnets!

We got our pictures done for the first time in the Texas blue bonnets! I have always wanted to do this, but I've never followed through until this year.  I had a friend post a photographer who had no sitting fee, but just charges $7 a digital image that you buy, and I couldn't resist.  I thought this was the perfect time to get one year old pictures of Maya, and the perfect setting in the blue bonnets right when she is about to officially be a Texan!


These boys love their sister.


She is the cutest.

She really loves her daddy. It is so much fun to watch them together.

The whole photo shoot would be worth it just for this shot.

 After our pictures were paid for, the photographer sent us several more "blooper" photos just for fun. 

This is Zev's idea of a funny face.

He told Tahl to look surprised. This is definitely my favorite funny picture. It is just so Tahl.

Not so sure about this one.

This one was less funny and more cute.
