Easter Egg Hunters.

These are some of the Wilterink grandkids -- missing are Evie, Caleb and Breyana.

Easter (He Is Risen, Indeed)!

We went to Third for Easter, then to Jerry & Wendy's for dinner and a great Easter egg hunt for the kids. Great day, but our household was just starting to get sick... and little did we know how bad things would become!

More Indy.

At some point during the weekend my Dad realized that we had brought Evie along, and that she was, in fact, his second grandchild and first granddaughter. It was like a light bulb went off: "Hey, that's my granddaughter! Huh, maybe I'll hold her for a minute (as long as I can hold Connor too of course)." So that's what he did.

Note the kids in the first photo, then them again in the second. Different outfits, yes? Is anyone wearing the same thing? Turns out that shirt and t-shirt was his uniform for three long, warm days. I tried to release him from his self-imposed "record" when we left on Sunday, but I'm not sure what happened after we left.

Back To Indy!

Another trip to Indy, and another really great weekend. The only thing we don't like is the company, er, I mean the drive! It's the drive we don't like, but I had plenty of time to think about ways to improve it so more on that later. We went to a children's toy museum outside of Indy, and that was a lot of fun. The toy collection was amazing, and something any adult would enjoy.

What, More Kids??

YouGotThatRight. Kids are all we do around here. Note Evie's foray into the Activity Center!

My Birthday.

I turned a very young and spry 37 on March 27. Jodi and I had a great dinner at The Chop House (half off the food on your birthday, folks!), then we met friends at a new place near Eastown, The Winchester. That was fun, then Saturday night a group of us had dinner at a new place called The Victory Club. It's on the site of the old Lena Lou, which was a great old Ada bar and happens to be where our wedding party, well... partied, the night before our wedding (after the rehearsal dinner). Good times to be sure.

Evie.

She's very sweet.

A New Procedure.

Connor is learning something new. C'mon, I meant reading!!

Kristi and the Kids.

So far these two are the only nephew and niece. She's got chances at more though, unlike MB.

More Kids.

Connor with his new 'mean and threatening' face, Evie in the Poof chair, and Evie in the getting started in the Boppie!

Holland.

Big "guy's night out" in Holland. Much fun had by all. Note T. Cotts holding court...

The Kids.

More of the usual. It's why you folks stop by, assuming any of you do anymore.

New Puppy.

Lack of updates, I realize. I update Facebook more these days and getting to this one as well as the myriad other data related backups and updates take their toll. At any rate, MB & K got a new French Bulldog named Milo. He's great.

Valentine's Day.

Saturday we went to Holland for Valentine's Day, after a nice dinner at Centennial CC Friday night. The lake was angry that day, my friends. Like an old man trying to return soup in a deli. I fell in a bit, but we have a nice new gas dryer that did just what it was supposed to do.

Mommy and Evie.

Just photos... I don't know that we did a lot mid-winter, with an infant and a toddler. We probably did something.

A New Cousin!

Caleb Jehu Wilterink was born February 6, 2009. Mom and baby did well and are now home!
