21 Months and a playdate with Carter!

A couple weeks ago Stephanie and Carter came over for a play date. The kids played inside, outside, went to a park, ate lunch and took a looooong nap! Rylie was talking about "car-der" the rest of the day!

Easter 2011

 This year we celebrated Easter a week early with Dan's side of the family since everyone was going to be gone for the holiday.  The kids had a lot of activities including an egg hunt.  Rylie loved putting eggs in her basket and then counting them out later. 

The following weekend we headed to La Crosse to celebrate with the Grandparents and Great-Grandparents.  Rylie colored eggs and we attempted another egg hunt, but she didn't have any other kids to keep her on task, so she was easily distracted :-)
