To Infinity and Beyond!

Marshall and I had a Mother-son night and we met Donna and the girls to see Disney Toy Story on Ice.  Marshall LOVED it!  We had taken pictures earlier that day, so I had promised him a souvenir.  I have never seemed him so focus on wanting a toy.  He could not live without the Buzz Lightyear Laser and did not take it off his hand the whole time.  It was an expensive night of cotton candy and popcorn, but definitely worth the splurge.  The girls and him had a blast and it was nice to focus on just Marshall while Daddy had some alone time with Daylon.

Spring Pictures

I took the boys to Portrait Innovations to get Spring Pictures done on Good Friday.  I thought everybody would have done their Easter pictures done, but apparently not.  It was really crowded and chaotic with a long wait and I didn't even want Easter pictures.  I was a little disappointed with the pictures.  In the past, they could always capture a smile on Marshall when he was a baby even if I did not see it.  I thought since Daylon smiles all the time and Marshall can now smile on command, we could get some great "Brother" pictures.  Apparently, it is really tricky to get them both smiling and looking in the same direction.  I am hoping next time will be better without such a long wait and rush to get through them.  Here are some of the pictures from their photo shoot.

























This is Marshall at the same age as Daylon.  I think they still look like Brothers,
 but are starting to look more and more different.

Annual Haverlah Family Camping Trip

We took our annual Choke Canyon fishing trip in mid April with the Kramers and Nana and Papa.  Clay took Marshall on Thursday and Daylon and I met them on Friday.  Clay and Marshall had a great time on Thursday and took the boat out in the big waves.  However, Clay managed to get the stomach bug that night and was knocked out of commission the rest of the time.  Marshall still had a ball with his cousins and made the best of it.  I just felt really bad for Clay because he had all these activities he wanted to do and felt horrible.  Here are some pictures of the camping adventure.
