An Eventful Weekend

We have begun our two week spring break with lots of action--we've already been to two parks, played lots of games, and broken a tooth...Here are some pictures to give you a glimpse of the first few days of our break! (videos coming soon!)
On Thursday we had Tony and Andy over for chili and then we went over to Mike and Erin's to hang out. So when we all went to get in the car, Tony and Andy were attempting to get Sterling's seat buckled...He looks thrilled about it doesn't he?! I thought it was funny to see the two of them trying so hard to get a baby seat buckled!

Sterling also helped me do a little bit of our usual weekend house cleaning- he got really into vacuuming- he took his responsibility very seriously.

Before we went out to play at the park Sterling put on his Sterling Trucks hat from Uncle Kyle- he calls it that- his uncle kyle hat, which is really adorable, but he only wore it for about 5 minutes before he threw it off :)

We went to a really cool park on Saturday that had rides for little kids. It also had ponds, cherry blossom trees, a ferris wheel, soccer field, tennis courts, baseball field, etc. It was really fun and there were tons of people there. These two pictures are him riding the carousel and the train.


That afternoon after his nap, we went to a different park with some people from our team and Sterling had a blast running around with the big guys catching the little bitty Hawkeyes football.


That night we went to the Thai Restaurant with Mike, Erin, Andy and Tony. This is Sterling and Brayden playing together. Most of the time they play well together, but they also have their moments when they fight like little 2 year old boys do!

We had a little Easter service with our team and one other girl from the language school. This is Caitlin and Andy playing some worship songs for us.

And last but definitely not least, Sterling fell down this afternoon on our way out to the car and broke his tooth. It was horrible and I cried because I felt so bad for him, but I think he's going to be okay. It cracked both of his front teeth, but the one on his left is much worse. Almost 1/2 of his tooth is gone. He cried most of the day about it, but then ate some food this evening, so we are pretty certain that there is no nerve exposed or anything. The only thing that worried us is that his gums have continued to bleed throughout the day, which makes us think that he must have knocked them loose a little bit. We're going to see if we can get him into the dentist first thing in the morning. We'll keep you updated!


I know this is a funny picture, he was pretending to fly his airplane from cousin Zion over my head when I snapped the picture :)
