Some fun moments from the past few weeks

Of course we are very excited to finally have Brecken here, we have a bunch of pictures of the little cutie pie but I'm going to wait until her Mommy and Daddy have a chance to show her off on their blog before adding pictures here.

Piper fast asleep in the car
Kyle and Konnor came over to play one afternoon and they all had a blast running around the yard

Nanny and her wild hair

We had a bonfire one evening and roasted some marshmallows

Piper and Jason playing scrabble before bedtime

Reagan in the car - I love those big blue eyes

Happy Easter

I think Piper was wondering what to do next, the coloring kit had stickers, stamps, glitter, beads and a few other things

here's what Reagan did to her first egg, we didn't get her the dye quick enough so she started bashing it on the table - lots of fun

all dressed up with a handful of Piper's Bendaroos

I wasn't lucky enough to get many still pictures of them collecting eggs, I did take a couple of long videos though - they were so cute, they didn't know where to start, well Reagan actually started with the jelly beans

she looked so cute in her beach chair in Florida I got her one for home

Well we had a great morning collecting eggs and candy and then off to church. Next stop is Great Grandma Marilyn's for dinner this afternoon.

Zoo day

We decided to venture over to the Como Zoo this week to look at the flowers and of course visit a few of the animals. Great idea Grandma Mary!

Reagan's 2nd Birthday

here are her "baby" cupcakes
I had to personalize one for her
1st present of the day

She was hilarious opening presents, each little scrap of paper had to go in the garbage

"what are you doing to my baby Grandma?"

ahh, finally out of the box and fits great in her arms

I think she was distressed that her cupcake was on fire

she was much happier to get all the candy and and marshmallows off of it so she could just eat it

it was hard to tell who liked the teapot more, Uncle Clay or Reagan

Dad, Niki, Mom, Jill

Heather and Aydan

playing with the new bubbles

this is why we only do bubbles outside, the deck was covered in soap.

Reagan had a great birthday. She woke up to us singing happy birthday and opening presents. Then all her favorite people came over delivering more presents and hugs and kisses. I loved the way she is so neat with the wrapping paper, making sure all the scraps went into the garbage. Her favorite gifts were hands down the baby and the high chair for it. Piper's favorite thing to do this week has been to hide the new baby. We can't wait to get out and really play with the bubbles and the new sprinkler.

A couple more Florida pictures

the girls were sliding together and so happy about it
of course being almost 2, Reagan is pretty proud to do things herself too

brushing her teeth, you can tell she's not feeling that great

the last day we visited the beach the wind was really howling, the waves were pretty big and I was so nervous, I had Reagan running behind me on the beach and Piper venturing further and further into the water, it was a little stressful being on my own. Next time I will just bring Piper's lifejacket and strap her in.
