Easter Sunday
Happy Easter! We sure had an amazing Easter this year. We started off the day with a breakfast of red velvet pancakes! Yum. Brian was excited to see that his egg had hatched and a cute little duckling was inside! Then, it was off to open presents. We probably overdid it this year, in fact, I’m sure of it..! There is just too much cute stuff out there. 🙂 Kendall got some Duplos that include a brown and white bunny and some cute toy eggs, which peep (in a quiet analog way–no...

Today was just packed! Holy moly, where to begin. 🙂 We started the day with breakfast and playing with our new Duplos a little.

It was on Halifax Mall, the great green area that is between a lot of the government complex buildings (including the...

She is really into shoes, and despite taking them off all the time, sometimes, she very clearly demands that I put them on her. She specifies one foot, and then the other. So funny. 🙂 She wasn’t interested in staying in her high chair this morning, but she was very interested in keeping her strawberry waffle, and she carried it around for awhile,...
Read MoreSunday at Lake Lynn
Today we took a trip out to Lake Lynn park, a perennial favorite! It’s been awhile since we’ve visited our animal friends, and we had a ton of bread heels to give them. There were a lot of visiting seagulls, who we don’t always see here.. But today they were out in full force. The ducks and geese seemed to be pretty full already and were settling down, but the seagulls were ravenous, of course. Once they noticed we had so much bread, they completely mobbed us! It was...
