Easter 2012
We celebrated our first Easter in our new home. The Easter bunny filled their baskets in the dining room and hid eggs in the living room. I almost didn't get pictures because the batteries in my camera were dead but Daddy saved the day (and an opened gas station.) Check out the cutie below celebrating his first Easter! He is so smiley.
Updates from Mary Ann's House
I don't have pictures from our move. All the kids were sick and it was just too crazy. But at our temporary house (Mary Ann Camosy) I got a little video of Charlotte and Henry.
Charlotte's 2nd Birthday
Charlotte's 2nd birthday was celebrated before we moved. Aunt Ann, Uncle Pat , Arizona Grandma, and Illinois Grandma and Papa were there to celebrate. She received a vacuum, some play food, some Elmo books and a pink purse book. She also got a sand and water table that we haven't opened yet. Maybe on the next warm day. She had the traditional Sesame Street cupcakes.
Mia's First Communion and Henry's Baptism
Amelia Therese receive Jesus in the Most Holy Eucharist and Henry Ignatius was baptized in the Catholic Church at Holy Family Church on January 28, 2012. Fr. Butler celebrated the sacraments. Mary Dausman and Uncle Pat are Henry's Godparents.
Pine Wood Derby 2012
Last year Ben was sick and unable to race his Pine Wood Derby car. This year he was so excited to race. There were a few technical issues not to mention Daddy driving in a snow storm to get there. Ben won one race. It was a fun day, they even let him test his car from the year before so he could see it run.

Christmas Day
Okay, I know the date is April 8 but I wanted to update the blog since it is our current way to document our history. So...
For Christmas Santa brought to Ben Mario bedding, Bears hat and pennant, and fishing gear. For Mia he brought Mini American Girl Dolls, Calico Critters, and Potholder Looms. For Joe he brought Mario bedding, animal mosaics, and some t-shirts. For Charlotte he brought a Snap color activity, Calico Critters, and a picnic table. For Henry he brought a LeapFrog Zoo, a book, and a picnic table.
We had a good Christmas and the best present was having daddy home and a new baby.

Christmas Eve
After Mass on Christmas Eve we take a dressed up photo. Then we enjoy dinner (this yearturkey). After dinner we sing happy birthday to Jesus. We jump into our pjs and open our presents to each other.
From the family Mia received a watch, an outfit for her American girl doll, and a utensil tool. She also received new ballet clothes earlier in the week.
Charlotte received some new books and a baby Jesus to start her manger scene. She loved opening presents this year. It was a good thing Henry was so little, she opened all his presents as well.
Ben received a headlight, utensil tool, Sonic toys, and a video camera. This was his big surprise. He loved it even though it is totally cheap. But it is perfect for his outdoor filming with friends and if he shows he can care for it we will upgrade it in the future.
Joe was last to open presents (he had some behavior problems all day). But he wait patiently, and received several look and find books, a headlight, a utensil tool, and Sonic toys.
Henry did not enjoy opening Christmas presents at all. He just wanted his evening supper.
a little silly
much better!

An Arizona Christmas
We celebrated our Arizona Christmas the weekend before Christmas. This way we spread out the Christmas joy. The girls loved their Madame Alexander dolls. The boys loved their flashlights and Wii game. The books and the movie were a hit as well. I also included the video of them opening their Happy Nappers from Aunt Ann and Uncle Pat. I think they liked them.
Henry's First Bath
Here is Henry, 3 weeks old getting his first bath. We had to wait for the weekend when Daddy was home. We only use this bath for the first one. The rest are done quickly in the big tub while other kids are bathing.
