The Hairdresser and the Easter Bunny
We went over to Grandpa's house on Saturday night to celebrate his birthday. Soren decided to entertain himself while we were making the final preparations for dinner by styling his Lion's mane! So "Lion" got his mane combed out very nicely with Grandpa's brush, then a blow dry with one of Soren's toys that blows air....like a hair dryer. Or so Soren thought!! It was hilarious. According to Grandma, this is not the first time Soren has shown off his hairdresser skills! Thanks Aunt Nancy for the Lion....Soren loves it!!
We had a wonderful Easter this year! Soren is almost 3 years old and he finally understood about the Easter Bunny and going on an egg hunt. Soren got some stickers, a spiderman puzzle and kite, and a little bunny all from the Easter Bunny this year.
We started out the day by going to Church. We went to the First United Methodist in downtown Albuquerque because that is where Soren goes to school each day. I thought it would be a nice thing to do with Soren. It backfired a little on me though, as Soren thought I was dropping him off at school all day! So much for me and my great ideas!!
It was a nice service though and they had a children's program, where the kids got to go up to the front and place a flower on the cross, then listened to "Peter Cottontail". Soren I think was just holding out for the candy at the end!!
After church, we went to a neighborhood brunch and easter egg hunt. It was a lot of fun...parents got to have mimosas and chat at the brunch at one house. Then we had an Easter parade to another neighbor's house for the Easter egg hunt. Soren had a great time and got a lot of eggs. It's very nice to have such good friends in the neighborhood with kids too!
Hope everyone had a great EASTER!
Sledding in Angel Fire

Went up to Angel Fire a few weekends ago to go sledding and play in the snow. Soren had a great time sledding for the first time. He was absolutely fearless! I was so excited to take him sledding and to finally get to use the snow suit I bought him. Although, Soren was less than thrilled to put it on or the matching snow boots! He soon learned though how uncomfortable it is to have COLD snow in your spiderman tennis shoes!!
Soren learned to make snow angels. However, Soren's favorite part of the whole adventure was just to be thrown in the snow, and sink down. He thought that was great!
I can't wait until next year when Soren can learn to ski. I think he'll be skiing circles around his mama in no time too!!
