Deck Pictures

So, I realized that I never posted pictures of the deck that John built for us last summer. It was a big project and he did a great job. (With some help some good frieds and family!) We started with a "Monkey Tail" as we liked to refer to it. Just stairs coming off the back of the house. We now have a 2 tier deck with a patio below. We are very anxious to be able to use it this summer!!

Easter #2

After a fun morning with Cassie & Nora, we had all of the family over for dinner and another egg hunt for the kiddos. Evelyn loved playing with cousins Claire, Kylan & Connor.

Easter #1

We had our neighbors over on Easter morning for an egg hunt with Evelyn, Cassie & Nora. The girls had lots of fun. Evelyn caught on to finding the eggs and putting them in her basket pretty quickly. She is all about chocolate now - she loves her chocolate bunnies that she got in her basket.

Playing at the Kitchen Table

Evelyn is very independent and feels that she needs to sit in the "big" chairs at the table. Just some pics of her goofing around.

First Try with Makeup

Evelyn loves to sit on the counter while mom puts on her make up each day. She always pretends to put it on after I do but she actually got ahold of the eyeliner the other day and tried to put it on her eyes. The results are shown here. We have some work to do!!

Pedicure

Evelyn and I had a girls night and we painted her toenails. She was so proud of them and loves to show them off!!

Play Dough

Evelyn got some play dough and has been having fun playing with it the past few nights. Just some action pics!

Happy Birthday Connor!

Cousin Connor turned 2 this past weekend and we got to go to his birthday party. Evelyn had fun playing in his new bouncer and got to have pizza & cookie cake. (Mom & Dad enjoyed as well!) It is so fun to watch Connor grow and mature. He is such a smart little guy and can say so much! And of course, Evelyn had to shower him with hugs before she left!

We all Scream for Ice Cream

Evelyn has discovered that she loves fudge pops. She can hold it all by herself and actually doesnt even make that much of a mess. She does like to say "cold" after about every bite!
