"Hi guys!"

"Peek-a-boo!"

Kyla just loves to take those plastic easter eggs and wear them on her toes as shoes. She'll walk all around the house just like this. Goofy girl.

Ahhh...

Kyla's First Fishing Outing

I don't know who was more excited, Brady or Kyla. We all piled into the truck and drove to a small nearby lake. As soon as you'd put the line in the water, the Sunnies would clean your hook. Perfect for short attention spans. Brady showed Kyla how to cast and reel in, but being that she's only 2 1/2, it didn't sink in a whole lot. Brady would cast the line for her and she would reel it in - most of the way. She loved it - the entire 10 minutes.

Daddy's showing her how to "work it..."

"Here fishy, fishy..."

"Momma, look!! I got a big one!"

Well, now if you've seen the earlier posts, you'll know that this isn't that unusual for our darling daughter. Apparently she read in Cosmo that mustard is great for the pores. This child will get into everything. Just this past weekend she ate my contact lenses! That's right, ate them! "It yucky, Momma." No kidding! Now I know I said I was going to be more vigilant, but who would have thought that she would eat contacts? There's never a dull moment with this one.

Mom's gardening buddy.

Heart Walk 2007.
I took the kids to the Heart Walk this year. Kyla made sure to bring her baby. It was so fun to see everyone with their kids. Kyla got to see an old friend from daycare that she hasn't seen for awhile. To this day she still talks about how she got to see Kaylynn.

Yes, he really is this happy.

"Woo-hoo! The Peterson Twins are here to play!"

"Can I have this one?"

"What do you say, Baby? Do you have plans for later? Think about it - me, you and a nice warm bottle of milk?"

"Your hair is like spun gold..."

"Is he serious?"

"Well, maybe I'll go with this one... "

Gulp.

Jesse and his girls...

Ashley and Emily

Kyla gets to hold Ashley...

See you later, everyone!

****NEWS UPDATE ****

Colton has slept through the night!!!! WOO-HOOO!! Hopefully this is a sign of things yet to come... you have no idea how happy this makes us!

Happy Easter!!!

"Happy Easter, everybody!"

This is my bunny cake. I'm very proud of this bunny cake. I wanted to make a special dessert and my mom told me about the bunny cake. Here it is...

I even gave him a tail!

Here are our Easter Cuties on Grandma and Grandpa's front steps.

Easter at Grandma and Grandpa's

Little girls love to play Dress Up. Isn't she a hoot?

Here Kyla is "playing cards" with Gigi. In other words she plays with the cards and Gigi watches. She won't let you actually touch the cards. "No, Gigi. I do it."

Colton catches a few Z's in his favorite spot. I'm sure Grandpa doesn't mind one bit.

Kyla and the bunny cake. It was cute I almost hated to eat it. Okay, that emotion was short lived, it was a good cake!

Mommy had to do a trial run with the sponge curlers before Easter. Kyla did a great job of holding still, which is not easy for a 2 year old. She had the very important job of handing Mommy a curler when she needed one!

The Before. "Cheese!!"

The After. Isn't it adorable? We are so going to do this for Easter!

Okay. Kyla had a very busy day. First she found the Vick's Vapor Rub on the stairs (Mommy hadn't put it away yet - bad Mommy, bad). So Kyla says to herself, "Hey! This looks like that lotion stuff for my chapped cheeks. I had better put some on... oh, much better... I better put some on my lips too... and over here... oh and a great big glob here... "

A few hours later, she decided that some nail polish remover looked like juice and drank it (again Mommy hadn't put it away yet - bad Mommy, very bad). Thankfully there wasn't much left in the bottle. Poison Control assured me that unless she was continuously vomitting she would be okay. Whew! Then, as if that wasn't enough, Kyla found some nail polish at Grandma's house and decided to paint her nails. And her fingers. And her lips (Grandma hadn't put it away yet - bad Grandma, bad. At least I come by it naturally). Anyway... I figured since Kyla had already drank some nail polish remover earlier that day, a little more on her lips to remove the polish would be just fine. What a day!! I am now oh so much more vigilant of things lying around. Lesson learned.
