What amazing weather!

We've been really blessed with some fantastic weather lately. We thought April 6 and 7 was good... April 19 and 20 were record-breaking, dancing at around 80 degrees!

Daddy has Mondays off, so we went to Jamison Square Park in Portland's Pearl District to do some splishing and splashing. London loves wading in the fountain water and climbing the terraced fountain steps. There were a lot of other kids around, as you might expect (especially since school wasn't in session that day), but London didn't mind them... and they didn't mind him.

After playing for a while, all four of us went to Ben & Jerry's (and a day before Free Cone Day, darn!) for some waffle cones of cookie dough and mocha chip. Mmmm! What a day! We thank God for these days because they're probably the closest thing to paradise Earth has to offer!

Watch London as he plays in Jamison Park!

LoJo the Hoopster

Some sunny, 70-degree weather means that we are getting out of the house and playing wherever we can! Yesterday we went to Timberline Park, where London got his kicks at the basketball court there. He wasn't satisfied just watching a teenager shoot hoops... he had to show him how it's done, or at least how to hold on to a basketball.

Enjoy this video (and the weather, if you're local)!

The Diaper Change Blues

London doesn't mind diaper changes as much as he used to, but he minds them even less if he's able to play the "la-la" (guitar) while he's tidied up. And now, may we present "The Diaper Change Blues."

Even more Easter fun!

We took a lot of pictures and a lot of video this Easter, and we'd be remiss if we didn't give Liberty a little more camera time, nor if we didn't show the new drum set our apartment managers bought London.

So here are two more videos for your enjoyment! Check 'em out!

Easter fun!

You know, I hate it when people say they've been "too busy to write," but really, it's true.

We had a great Easter... quite busy! I (Marcus) kept busy the week before with rehearsals for our church's production ("The Door"), and Savannah kept busy with -- well -- the kids!

Saturday was a lot of fun at Meinig Park, the wooded wonderland next door to our apartment. London finally was big enough to compete in the Kiwanis Egg Hunt, and as you'll see from the video below, was quite content with his one Tootsie Pop.

Actually, here's a triple-play of Easter videos. You'll see the hunt, London opening his Easter basket from Grandma and Papa Dunn, and a video of me chasing London around the Meinig Park amphitheater (my personal fave)! Enjoy!

First sprinkler run!

When we have a 70-degree day in April, you'd better believe we're going to take advantage of it. A nice, sunny day found London and Daddy in the yard, as London enjoyed his first sprinkler run! Enjoy the video!

Maybe we're done?

We have two gorgeous children, but after a look at www.makemebabies.com, we realize we're pretty lucky -- and that maybe we should stop after two?  Haha, just kidding, but it was fun to see these hideous photos of our would-be kids that were made by combining our pics... (Apparently Marcus' tan tricked the website into thinking he's an African-American.)

Enjoy the slideshow!
