March for Babies 2012

March for babies 2012 was a success! We raised $381 for the March of Dimes ($20 more than last year!), YA HOO! The weather was perfect, the snacks were flowing, we had good company & a nice view of the river. Thanks to all our family & friends for supporting a cause that we hold dear to our hearts!


Seyler's 2012
YES, we do have our hands full...
Can't really go anywhere without snacks!
What a view!
The Lyda's!
One of the best days of Fletcher's life...an almost 2 hour walk!
We got this, Mom!
Time for a nap!

...and for a little flashback action...

Project 365 - Week 14

Can I just say I am so glad that the weather has been in the 50's & not 80's like last month?! We do have our summer wardrobes lined up, since it could very well be 90 degrees at any moment in time. For now 50-60 is just fine!

Sunday: After hours of tag teaming the yard work and a trip to Menards! I feel like I should have taken a before, but that would have been embarrassing, maybe. We also got a new address plaque, something I had been wanting since we moved in! (A perfect example of why 50 degrees is perfect! Who wants to do yard work for hours when it's 90 degrees?)


Monday: Gang's All Here! Who doesn't love "Everybody Poops?"


Tuesday: Fletcher guarding the pirate's treasure, or maybe he has been captured and held hostage.


Wednesday: Rice Bin: Toddler Crack


Thursday: Twelve nugget later, the most peaceful meal in a long time. Adult conversation actually took place!


Friday: C&P call this dog toy "The Ugly One." For a few days they were terrified of it!


Saturday: Not making a mess, making memories! (too corny?)

Easter 2012

C&P had an Egg-cellent Easter! After finding eggs, coloring eggs & eating eggs I think they are egged out! C&P each received 6 Easter baskets/fun cups within a week, and they don't want to put them away either!

Look at the mess the Easter Bunny made...
& of course the only one around to clean it up was the Easter Bunny...
Checking out their loot!
Grandma had to show me up with singing Easter baskets!

Cupcakes for Uncle Steve's house, a bird's nest & deviled egg.

Pass the Paas

2nd Annual Egg Dye...

Toddler Tip: Put paper towels at the bottom of the cup/glass to cushion the egg's fall,
we lost a few...or don't use a wine glass.

...and then he stuck his hands in & looked like a Smurf...

Passing time by coloring, but she made sure her eggs stayed real close.

Taa Daa!
