This is my "I am about to get in trouble" face.




Playing in the dishwasher...what a trouble maker!

Georgia Renaissance Festival







Today we went to the Georgia Renaissance Festival with Ginny and Allen. We met Mother Goose and got to pet the "duck" as Myers called it. Myers also got to meet King Henry VIII. King Henry was very impressed to meet George Myers the V, but very jealous that Myers was flirting with the queen (and you know what happens when Henry VIII gets jealous!). We also got to meet the King's hunting dogs.
After meeting the King, we ate at the Peacock Tea House and watched "Tartanic" which is a group that plays bagpipe music. Myers really liked it. He danced and clapped along and shouted, "Hey" when the song called for it.
Even after all these years of visiting the Renaissance Festival I still can't talk George into dressing up!

He is Risen!


Why is it that I usually get more out of the children's sermon than anything else? Is it because I spend all day with 4 and 5 year olds so my mind works on that level most of the time? Whatever the reason is, it is the truth. During the children's sermon at church today, our preacher was telling us how in the early church there was an Easter tradition to say to one another "He is risen." and the other person would reply "He is risen indeed." They would start out speaking quielty at the beginning of the day, but by the end of the day would basically be shouting it from the roof tops, "HE IS RISEN INDEED!" So I say to you, "He is risen!"

Garden!


George is preparing the plot for garden this weekend. He is using many of his Grandfather's tools and seeds this year which will give the garden special meaning. Today, after George tilled the plot of land, we all worked to pull out the rocks and clumps of grass. Myers was having fun throwing the dirt in the bucket and digging with his new garden tools that Grandma and Grandpa got him for Easter.

Surgery





Today Myers had surgery at the Children's Health Care of Atlanta Surgery Center near Scottish Rite to get tubes in his ears. We had to get there at 6:45 in the morning! By 8:30, I went back with him to the operating room. He was such a good little guy that he didn't even struggle when they put the mask over his face to give him the anesthesia. George and I hardly even had time to settle into the post-op room before Dr. Baktha was coming in to tell us that the surgery was over and that Myers had done well. When Myers woke up post-op, he was very fussy because of the medicine, but after awhile he calmed down. We were able to leave for home by 9:00am. We all took a nice nap once we got home. Tonight he is back to himself, although he is still awake and playing in his crib right now. What a little stinker!

Myers the Daredevil


Myers has become quite the daredevil recently. He is climbing on everything. His favorite thing to climb on is his push car. He also is a daredevil when it comes to getting off of things. Tonight he did a somersault off a box that he was standing on! Maybe we have a future stunt man on our hands???

Topher's 2nd Birthday Party

The birthday boy Topher and Myers playing in the bounce house.
This is fun!

Serious Myers and one of the little girls at the party playing in the ball pit.
On March 6th, we celebrated Topher's 2nd birthday. The party was a little early because Topher's baby brother is due on his real birthday! At Topher's party last year, Myers was just a tiny thing, but this year he had so much fun playing with all the other kids and all the new toys. Happy 2nd Birthday Topher!
