Piggy Piggy

I have to admit I am guilty about spoiling our boys. I don't mean to do this, but man they are just so dang cute. They have been getting into having pennies or money right now, so PK said that we need to get piggy banks for them. I am like hey they have monkey ones at target for cheap. Well, I looked at them and they were small, so I was on a hunt to find another piggy bank for our boys and i found the cutest ones. I LOVE them. Kade got to pick which one he wanted since he just pooped in the potty (ok we have had some tough challenges with him and the pooping in the potty). So, he picked the baseball pig and Kai was happy with the football pig. How cute are they! I am going go to go broke feeding the pigs. Oh well that is why we aren't having more kids we will just spoil the crap out of these 2.
Highlights of the weekend. My mom's birthday was on Saturday....we got her a card and her favorite peeps. Lord that lady and her peeps. Grandpa and Grandma Kuempel came to see us today. So very exciting to see them. We had a low key dinner and just love time with them. We miss them so very much, but very thankful for them in our lives. Oh I think Grandpa went a little broke feeding the pigs too. So, everyone coming to the Kuempel house bring your change you will have happy little boys! Oh and the biggest highlight YEP....UNI beats Kansas putting us in the sweet sixteen. Man, those boys are on fire. Lets just say there was a lot of yelling and some crazy words said in our house. I called my sister and of course she was crying....you gotta know Andrea....love her to death, but this was a HUGE thing for Cedar Falls and all the Alumni out there...including PK and Andrea. I am just am born and raised in CF, so I guess that goes for something. Man, if we won this whole thing there might be riots on the hill....
I think that is about all the news I have right now. I hope this finds everyone happy and healthy. Much love from PK, EK, KPK and KEK...oh and Koda :o)

Easter...whoa

I am looking at the pictures to the right of the blog and these pictures were taken last Easter of our family and then of the boys. I am so quoting PK and saying that time is going way too fast or can you believe that was a year ago. We have officially been in our house for a year. That is another big WHOA! We are so truly blessed to have an amazing family, house and good health. We can't be more thankful. The house thing is going good. We still need to decorate, but it is coming along slowly. I look back at our other house and just think...there is no way we could do that now. The boys have so much energy and being cooped up inside during bad weather doesn't help, but at least this house a ton more room to run and let me tell you...quote from Kade....I'm running in a circles mom. And the whole upstairs is the race track. And I truly think that PK and I are full time referees someone is either crying or whining or tattling. I know it will get better but lord can it be sooner rather then later. But all in all they always stick up for each other oh and their latest thing is sleeping in each other's bed. Well, they start that way and then one either leaves or we come in and move them because they are naughty. Kai is the funniest....I will come in and talk to them and Kai will say....I am sleeping with my Kade. Lord it is never a dull moment.
We are all so excited for spring....grilling, picnics, park and swimming. I hope to spend as much time outside as we can. I need to start looking for outside toys and a picnic table. I know bubbles are the #1 toy, but they can be messy since the boys love to spill them everywhere. All I can say is poor PK....this drives him insane.
I am going to post this quick because another couple of weeks have gone by and I have more information and more pics. Sorry I am so far behind. Love to you all!!!
