Everyday life

I thought I would share a few fun pictures that capture our day to day life at the VanderKamp house

Sylvia is starting to cruise around the furniture.  In this picture she got stuck under the table:

Andrew lining up his cars (again) around the edge of the carpet to make a large '7'

Sylvia's fun new activity:  throwing tupperware.  I love this action shot...lids flying everywhere!

What to do with crabby kids:  let them play in the sink, of course :)

Andrew hiding because he doesn't want his diaper to be changed.

Blowing out candles

Happy third birthday, Andrew!

birthday boy

Our Andrew is 3 years old today. I can hardly believe it! What a wonderful 3 years it has been. He is a boy who loves cars, fans, the color green, mac and cheese, the song 'Jesus loves Me', and is still quite the cuddle bug. Oh, how I love him!

If you look close, you can see that he matched up some of his matchbox cars with the cars on the wrapping paper

The birthday cake he picked out: a Disney Cars cake

Uncle Matt & Uncle Eric gave him a soccer ball

Testing it out.  He actually does quite well, running and kicking the ball

Sylvie enjoyed the festivities as well.  We gave her a small blob of frosting and this was the result :)

Happy Easter

Andrew's Easter gift...a chocolate bunny

Sylvia in her Easter dress

Tried and tried for a good shot of these two together.  Not perfect, but cute nonetheless
