This is the record of the amazing Super Four. Danger Boy was the first to arrive, and the first to earn a super title by his amazing ability to jump off all raised surfaces. Kid Catastrophe was next and no less capable as she climbed higher than anyone should, tripping over her own feet along the way. Miss Mayhem earned her alias by wreaking havoc wherever she toddles. Captain Midnight is the last to join, and earn his title with his ability to keep his parents up at all hours.

Planting the Garden & Easter Misc.
For Family Home Evening tonight we planted the pumpkin patch, with some weeding and watering thrown in. We also took Kid Catastrophe's bird house from her lesson on Sunday (with the bird seed) and put peanut butter on it, stuck bird seed to it, and hung it on a large bush outside her window. We also made one for Danger Boy out of a pine cone to hang where he could see it out his window.
While I was putting the peanut butter on the little ornamental bird house Paranoid Dad asks, "Oh, does the peanut butter attract the birds?" Tired Mom says, "Uh, it will after I stick the bird seed to it." and then Tired Mom giggled at Paranoid Dad for a good 15 minutes. Sorry, I thought everyone knew that trick! Easter was fun too with some candy, toys, and dressing up for the kids. We spent most of the day with Grandma and Grandpa. We got a package full of goodies from Grandpa Butch and Grandma Joy in Idaho. It included a dinosaur game for Danger Boy and a Dora House for Kid Catastrophe. We also got some new books. We love books!
The kids loved the "cat toy" which was a weasel on an electronic ball. I think the kids and Nutmeg had an equally silly willy fun fun time.
Only eight days left?!! DANG! That is soon! What can I do for you, besides bring in meals? As your friend and VT, I'm making it my business to help out as much as possible. Can I borrow Vance and QQ from time to time?

This blog is mostly about our super kids, but it is obviously written by us, THE PARENTS. We are a Latter Day Saint couple trying to raise kids with as much love as possible in a crazy world. Comments from other parents are welcome, as well as any friends or family we have met in real life or on the web.
