Easter, and exciting news!

We had a great Easter this past weekend.  The weather wasn't the best, but Miriam still had a chance to search for easter eggs (both indoors and outdoors), and we had a fun time.  We took a lot of pictures, but we continue to struggle to get them to look at the camera at the same time (more often than not, Mathias is staring intently at Miriam!).  Miriam got a new bathrobe, a water bottle of her own (to use for biking), some bubbles, books, a bug kit and some candy.  She also found plastic eggs filled with pennies, which she was excited to put into her "college fund" (what she calls her piggy bank). Mathias got a swimsuit, some socks, and a couple of teething toys, which he is putting to good use - we are expecting teeth in the next couple weeks, based on the way he's drooling and chomping on things.  He's even started chomping on his toes, as he's discovered how to get them into his mouth. :)

In our exciting news - Mario has a new job at Weyerhaeuser that he'll be starting next month.  He'll be a team lead in AP (Accounts Payable), leading a team of 11 people.  On the side, he builds spreadsheets and data tools for me to use at school. :) And my big news - I'm planning on working part time next year!  We haven't figured out exactly what that will look like, as my school is getting a new principal next year, but I'm excited about continuing to work at school as well as have some more time at home and with the kids.

Here are some pictures from recent weeks, including Easter:

He's discovered his feet...and how well they fit in his mouth. :)
