Grandpa, Grandma, & Aunt Meme come to visit...

We had some fun visitors and did some fun things... we love partying it up with our visitors. Robert, Robyn and Merilee came to visit for a few days. We hung out in Omaha for the first few days and then we headed down to Kansas City to play with T.J., Ansley, Cohen and Ledger. Fun, FUn, FuN!

Pizza Machine
This is one place we will really miss when we move. Kelan and Beckham love this place. Beckham still prays for the Pizza Machine EVERY time he prays and sometimes multiple times within one prayer. Gotta LOVE it!
Kelan and Aunt Meme. Pretty sure Kelan has a secret crush on his Aunt Meme.
Beckham practicing his shot.
Baby Crew... still not to sure?
Beckham whippin' up on Papa.

Children's Museum
We went to the Children's Museum with Grandma. It was nice to have an extra set of hands with 3 kids. Paparazzi Grandma also did a great job taking pictures.
Kelan cheesing for Grandma.
Me and Kelan building a Robot house for Aunt Meme.
More Cheesing...


Bass Pro Shop
What the Easter bunny and Santa live here? Beckham was a little nervous but he made it this year with no tears.
Kelan tried to talk Papa into buying this... good try.
That is a girl bunny... not sure what Beckham is doing with his hand?


Union Station
This place was so fun... and FREE. The boys could have hung out here ALL day.
Crew-Crew loves his Grandma.
SOOO Big!
Crew and Ledger just hanging out.
Kansas City Temple Open House. It was so beautiful. It was fun to see Kelan inside the temple he was a little nervous about it at first.


Happy Easter
The Easter Bunny found us in Kansas City this year. I told Spence that the Easter Bunny had a lot to live up to next year. Bikes??? We never got Bikes from our Easter Bunny growing up. I guess you can't ride them until then when you live in Idaho.
Kelan is pointing to his name. Ansley cut their names out on her cool Silhouette.
Beckham liked his golf clubs from Grandma and Grandpa Hawkes better than the bike.
Boys, boys, boys...
Always so sleepy... Crew was being grumpy on Easter and Kelan said "I think he is so grumpy because the Easter Bunny only brought him one egg..." hahaha.
Cohen Cruisin...
So Happy... Beckham really does love his bike now. They love riding them to the park together.


Easter Parade and Zona Rosa Shopping Center
There was a balloon Easter Bunny in the beginning and Kelan was telling Beckahm... "It's not even real Beckham!"... pretty disappointed.
... and then the real Easter Bunny showed up!
Beckham was talking with the puppy... it was pretty cute. He LOVES puppy dogs.
Kelan and Bearemy.
Aunt Meme helped him accessorize. Kelan loves his bear. He has to sleep with him every night now.

Bounce House
Gotta love the bounce house... burns all their energy out.
Cohen and Kelan in the wind tunnel... pretending.
Beckham was constantly running after Cohen and Kelan... he's a little slow.
Baby Ledger just so happy to watch the kids.
Crew hanging out with Dad... studying for Boards. Crew was good luck... he passed!

Baby Crew

We had some newborn pictures taken of crew when he was just 12 days old. A guy and his wife in our ward took them and they did such a great job. (Thanks Ryan and Emily!) Crew is now a month old and is growing so fast. At his month check up he weighed 9lbs 6oz (35 percentile) and his height was in the 91st percentile. He is chunkin up fast. Some of the nicknames he already has are cruiser the snoozer, cruiser the bruiser, and crew-crew. He really is a good little sleeper. He goes down about 11 and wakes up whenever we get up and get moving. He has the Anderson sleepy genes, Thank goodness! We sure love this little guy.



I love all the wrinkles in this picture.


Look at that big hand... so sleepy.


He loves his monkey.


Cute feetsies.

Happy Birthday Kelan!

Kelan is officially 5! Crazy, crazy, crazy! We love our Kelly Belly so much. Kelan is such a great helper and he is so sweet. He is such a people pleaser and has such a big heart. I am so glad that I have Kelan around the house and I am going to miss him when he goes off to kindergarten in August. I can't believe how fast time has gone. We love you Kelan!

B-day Party
For Kelan's party this year we invited a few friends to play musical chairs (to the star wars theme song), Shoot the bad guys with nerf guns, pin the light saber on Luke Skywaker. The one and only thing Kelan wanted was a "pinonna" as he would say, so that is what we did. It was so fun to see how into the kids were at this age.



Pizza Machine
It isn't a birthday unless you visit the Pizza Machine.
Grandma Nani was in town so we got to celebrate with her.
Beckham is so glad that Kelan had a birthday!

Bowling
Crew snoozed the whole time.

B-day Breakfast
Kelan loves chocolate milk with heart shaped cinnamon rolls... so that is what we did.
