End of April pictures

We have settled into quarantine. Lots of family time, especially for the cousins, who play together almost every day.  Auggie has really gotten into puzzles this month, and when many of our friends heard this, we started having puzzles arrive at our door, despite the nation-wide puzzle shortage!  












Here, Auggie and Ella are watching their Aunt Stephanie do a live zoom science class for kids. Auggie loved it.  Ella fell asleep.

Easter

 We had a fun Easter celebration at Babcia and Dziadek's house. In the morning, teh kids posed for photos - it is unusual for them to wear dress up clothes.  Once we arrived to Walnut Creek, the kids had a giddy Easter Egg hunt - Ella's first - but unfortunately, all the fun images were captured on video, not in pictures.  Then, like all children dressed in nice clothes should, they proceeded to frolic in the yard, climbing trees and seeing how many of them could fit into a low lying hammock.  After that, Evan and Auggie braved the cold swimming pool - temp was 58F - for a few minutes (this was also captured on video, not pictures).

Auggie's Birthday Celebration

 Given that we were on quarantine during a world-wide pandemic, Auggie's birthday was a small family affair.  Agnieszka and Daniel decorated the house after the kids went to bed.  In the morning, Auggie got to have a special birthday bagel with sprinkles.  Then family came over for the birthday celebration.  We also had a wonderful surprise from Maya's family, who quietly came to decorate our front side-walk.  We could only talk to them from a distance, but it made the day even more special. 















Facebook also sent us a remind of Auggie's previous birthday celebrations (I don't know what happened to year 3):
