March Madness

Pretty girls on Easter


In addition to the real March Madness on the TV whenever Chris is home, we've had so much going on this month! Chris started coaching Cameron's baseball team, with his broken wrist and everything! Cameron really likes being on a baseball team with his cousin Dallin (and cute little McKenna, too!) Isaac is playing t-ball, he always tells everyone what his Daddy tells him, "I'm a natural!" He really is! Like I said before, Maddy got her hair cut and finds new ways to wear it everyday... straight, curled, headbands, flower bows (which we have been making together), barrets, and sometimes even in ponytails still. Ava is just as busy as ever, she's bumped her head and gotten scratched up a million times like usual... and she's constantly making us laugh with the things she says, as usual! Mia is now two and a half months and was blessed this last Sunday, March 30th. She's been sick twice already, and is just getting over an ear infection! We also honored Chris's Mom on March 20th, as it has been 2 years since she passed away. We really miss her. It was nice to visit the cemetery and hear a special memory that each grandchild there shared. So between baseball practice, games, broken bones, trips to the Dr and dentist, one trip to urgent care (for me with Strep), allergies, Easter egg hunts, Easter, Mia's blessing, haircuts (mine too), and everything else, I'd say we've had a pretty average month.

Again, too many candy eggs to eat!

I love that little face of Mia's in the last picture. I never get to see that face cause she's always asleep when I'm there! lol She's so cute though.

The girls look so pretty. Little Mia is so sweet and cute, but looks so sad in the last picture. I loved Mia's blessing dress too. I enjoyed being there with all of you for the blessing, food, and with Chris' family too. I miss his Mom so much. :)

Hello Sly Family!!! Your easter pictures are simply darling. I'm so glad that you are all doing well and enjoying the blessings of life. Mia is a little doll. All of your kids are growing too fast! It's fun to see all that you are up to! Thanks!!!
Love,
Dawnette
