Easter




Easter was a lot of fun with taylor this year. She got so excited to find the Easter eggs hidden in the yard. She talked about the party at Grandma and Grandpa Chugg's house for weeks before. She had a fun time playing with Cousin Anna.
The boys donned their 3-piece suits for the first time and were a hit at sacrament meeting. Most in the ward haven't had a chance to see them yet. Carin said we are Catholics now because we go to church on Christmas and Easter. We are looking forward to the RSV season being over with so we can introduce Taylor to other kids and go back to church as a family. We have faired well so far with no illnesses all winter. Thanks to all the family that supported us and accomodated our germophobia.

Brothers in Arms






After clowning around a bit and working up an appettite, John and Bennett got so messy last night with their mush that they got to spend the rest of the night naked. Well almost. They enjoyed it. I think I will have to talk to John about flashing signs. I think this one means, "It was him, not me."

What cha talkin' bout Willis?

Thought this was a classic face from Bennett. Probably just gas. Sometimes I think they get a little tired of their Dad taking a picture a day. At least they might be photogenic like their sister.

'Puter Expert


Since we are painting downstairs, we moved the computer upstairs to keep it out of the dust. Taylor discovered a website called Starfall. It only took her about a day to figure out how to point and click the mouse. She gets to play a game a day and loves the click around. Kind of fun to see our little baby playing with a computer!

Possible Triplets?







We've been looking at pictures of Taylor at about the same age as the twins are now. It looks as if you may be able to identify Chugg kids upon their family resemblence. Although Taylor's features are a bit more pettite and the boys surely have a boy-look about them, I think we're safe to say, they are ours. What do you think? Top picture is John, then Bennett, then Miss Taylor.

The Robster


This is an old picture of the Robster himself. He got transfered and is apparently going to die a Zone Leader. His new companion is Elder Silva. Sounds like they are super hard workers. I am apparently getting excited for the guy to come home because I have dreamt about him two nights in a row. Never has any man made me dream about him-let alone two nights in a row. Keep on workin' Rob. We're all proud of you.

Have you seen my Brother?




John and Bennett are spending more time on their bellies. As evidenced by the above picture, they enjoy it. Bennett has developed a high pitched squeal. It's amazing something that opinionated coming out of such a little guy. However, tonight at dinner John squealed and scared Bennett and made him cry. John smiled and thought it was pretty funny. Since they started their mush bottles, their faces have begun to chunk up a little. Last time we went to the doctor, they were within 2 oz. of each other still. We still have to look pretty close. Since they have a little hair now, Bennett will now be getting the spiked mohawk, while John sports the more modest comb-over.

Let's "HIT the Hay"




Last night, Taylor and Daddy were playing with the Fisher Price farm and it was getting close to bedtime so we decided that they would all be tired and "hit the hay." Taylor got a kick out of every one of the animals hitting the hay. I asked Taylor if she would like to "Hit the hay" and she got all excited. When I went to tuck her in, she started to cry and I asked her what was wrong. She said,"Daddy we didn't hit the hay!" She then proceeded to tell me what she meant. There is "pretend hay" under her bed and she has to put in under her pillow. I put pretend hay under her pillow, she slugged the pillow and went right to bed. Looks like Daddy has yet again caused another bedtime ritual for Miss Taylor.

Taylor learned nine new German verbs tonight in about 10 minutes. She only has to practice about 3 times and she has it. Actually has really good pronunciation too.

She started to ask "why?" today. Momentous. Get ready, she'll be smarter than her dad before she's 5.

Our new Van has a DVD player in it. She thinks that it is the coolest thing ever that she can watch Shrek while we are driving around. Mommy and Daddy think so too!

The boys are in love with Taylor. They can't get enough of her. She's our little babysitter. While mommy and daddy make dinner, she is in charge of keeping the boys happy-which she does very well.
