Nicholas and Bryce

On Thursday, two of my teacher friends found out they were having boys!  One of them asked me to make "gender reveal" cupcakes for her to take to school to announce her news to everyone!  So lucky me, I got to know right away!  It was really fun to make them, and I think they turned out really well!!!

Filled with BLUE!!!

Topped with pink and blue frosting together!

Friday night there was a little teacher get-together.  Matt was so nice to let me go and have some "adult time" while he stayed home with the boys!  While I was there, he sent me this picture:

Apparently Mason thought Bryce needed a friend...

Saturday we hung around the house.  Matt spent his time in the garage/yard.  I spent my time helping my friend Maggie register for baby stuff!  Again, while I was out, I got another couple of fun pictures sent to me!

Bryce was in the stroller watching everyone.  Apparently it was quite boring...

And Zane decided to do a little reading on the swingset!

Saturday night we decided to brave the movie theatre with everyone!  It went well!  I couldn't resist taking a picture of my boys gearing up for the movie!

So cute!

Sunday morning we got ready and headed to Iowa.  We went to Matt's grandparents' house for our Easter dinner.  It was the first time some of them met Bryce!  The little boys had so much fun together!  Poor Mason...he's the littlest (of the big boys) so they were all ganging up on him saying "Run from Mason...here he comes..."  But I have to hand it to Mason...he doesn't let that stuff bother him!  He just goes on playing!

Hitting balloons into the air

I don't know how else to say it other than...Mason is obsessed with Papa Craig!  He now refers to himself as Craig or Papa.  When I call him Mason he corrects me...and tells me he's Papa.  He will say to Bryce "Papa's holding you now.  Do you want Papa?"  He says he is Papa Craig and Zane is Old Papa.  Honestly.  It's the cutest thing.  So Sunday as soon as Papa got there, Mason was in heaven!  At one point, when Papa was in the bathroom, Mason was laying on the floor, outside of the bathroom door, on his belly, just laying there waiting...like a loyal dog...

Look closely...left hand resting on Papa.  He didn't get too far away all day!

These boys just laughed all day long!

I don't think they'll be offered any dancing jobs soon...
