Spring Has Sprung

Friday, I made the comment, "This has been the best day of the year," but I have since had to amend that statement. This weekend has been my favorite! The weather has been beyond beautiful and we spent most of it soaking it up.

Friday: a trip to the zoo just the three of us. You were both so lovey dovey with each other, being so kind, and being sure to share everything you had. It was the first trip that you weren't too terrified either, Ryan. You actually cracked a smile and got excited when the bear came up close to you, instead of crying or trying to hide from him. After the zoo, you boycotted naptime. So, we played soccer and baseball in the backyard and then enjoyed some snow cones! By then, it was time to meet Daddy at Nanny's house so he could take care of her yard while we played with her. Finally, we wrapped up our day with a pizza picnic on Main Street, a surprise visit by Zsu Zsu and Paka (who were out to eat on Main Street too), an up close visit by a choo-choo, and a short walk for some tasty ice cream. What an incredibly full day and awesome kickoff to a super weekend.

 
 
  
 
 
 
 
 

Saturday: Daddy kicked off his day bright and early, hunting with Grandpa. While we waited for him to get home, the three of us met Zsu Zsu for a breakfast picnic at our walking trail and park. We had some breakfast, threw rocks in the pond, blew bubbles, and went for a short walk. Later in the day, we headed downtown for your first UL baseball game. An impromptu dinner followed afterwards!
 
  
Sunday: was a relaxed day at church and home, wrapped up with a walk down by Zsu Zsu and Paka's creek and a bonfire. I don't think we could have squeezed one more thing into our weekend, but what a great weekend it was!

Photo Shoot

We are so blessed to have so many wonderful, generous friends and family in our lives. Today, one of Tse Tse's good friends, who has been working on photography, asked to take some pictures of you boys. How could we turn that opportunity down? She did such a great job with you boys and captured some really sweet pictures of you both.

Library Concert

Yesterday the library hosted a special concert featuring fun music, snacks, and time to make a craft. You were both a little more hesitant than when we go to regular Toddler Time (you kept asking for Ms. Shannon and were confused why she wasn't running the concert!), but warmed up in time to enjoy some snacks and make your own musical instrument.

Afterwards, we headed to the park to soak up the beautiful day. It was a great way to kickoff our spring break!

Easter Week: Day 4

Today was spent at Grandpa and Grandma Karen's house. A backyard filled with little boys, giggles, and fun times. What a beautiful day and wonderful way to spend our Easter Eve!
