Avalanche Ranch

 The boys and I spent the first part of spring break at Avalanche Ranch.  Despite a few hiccups (stomach bug and being stuck when the highway was shut down on the way home), we had such a nice time.  I definitely want to take Brian back.

 We rented this cute little cabin, but there are also wagons you can rent and stay in (no kitchen or bathroom though)  

 We met some good friends there which made it extra special (and they helped me tremendously when I was sick!)

Zoo with my little guy

 B and I had the afternoon with nothing to do and gorgeous weather.  I have been wanting to see Dobby (the new giraffe) and a new tiger exhibit and so we took advantage of the time and went to the zoo.  

 B mostly just enjoyed pushing the stroller, playing with various ropes and looking at rocks, but I was happy to be out.

Dobby was really cute (weighs more than I do at 3 weeks, but still pretty small for a giraffe!)  The tiger exhibit, in my opinion, was quite disappointing.  

Trouble!

Little Artists

This week

 We've had limited time lately to write blogs, but here is our past week in a nutshell.  We had dinner at some friends house and B (once again) played with his little buddy.  

 Landon got very into Pi day this year and went so far as to write many digits on his arm and make a happy pi day shirt.  

 The boys were beyond thrilled that I let them have dorritos and cheetos.  Not sure why they decided sitting in a corner by the back door was a good place, but they were happy!

 We went to the gardens yesterday to play and visit Elsie's tree.  

Mini

B has been imitating nearly everything I do.  I clean out my hairbrush after I use it each day.  Now each time he holds a hairbrush, he goes to the trash and pretends to throw hair away.  When I fold laundry, he does the same.  Yesterday I got a piece of wood lodge in my food and have had to wrap it since.  After I changed the dressing, he got the tape and asked for a piece.  Before I knew it, he had put it on his foot too.  So cute.  

"Gaggle of Imigs"

 A cousin of mine comes into town pretty regularly from Texas.  Her partner is from Denver and they visit her family.  Whenever she comes, she reaches out to all the Imigs in Denver (lots of us now!) and somehow we are almost always ready to meet up in a big "gaggle of Imigs" (as she calls it).  

 Caitlin and their beautiful second daughter.

 Ben and his girlfriend Emma.

 This time we met everyone at Punchbowl Social for brunch.  

Recently

 B got some new tennies!

 Played with some of our favorite and meaningful stuffies.

 And a friend.

And had fun in the bath!
