Ryan had fun coloring eggs, and even was able to use his color-blending skills to make a "greeny-bluey one" on his own (his new favorite color).
We finally made it to SLU for the Alumni Association's annual hunt, and now we understand why people rave about it. It was a really fun, well-organized event and Ryan had a ball. That's him, out in front, sprinting for the eggs. We had attended a church hunt the week prior where he only got 1 egg (spent the hunt watching other kids rather than hunting!) so he had learned his lesson and bolted off the starting line this time around.
You can't let Easter go by without putting bunny ears on a baby, right?
Here are both of my little munchkins in their Easter outfits.
The Easter bunny left Ryan a sweet new kite that is really easy to fly (thank goodness!) and Ryan was a pro in no time at all. I have fond memories of running down the street with my siblings and neighborhood friends, pulling our kites behind us. This one took no running, just lifted it and away it went. I was amazed (& relieved)!
This is one of Ryan's favorite activities these days -- taking his dozens of matchbox cars and building a parking lot, parking garage or car wash out of blocks. It's hard to tell here, but his cars are neatly parked between blocks in that long line, and boy is he proud. :)
Ryan made his very first trip to the pediatric dentist today for a checkup. He was so sweet and cooperative -- I was so proud!
Emily is growing like a weed -- babbling, feeding herself table food, crawling all over the place and pulling herself up on toys and furniture. She keeps us on our toes and idolizes Ryan -- it's adorable to watch them interact and play together. Here's a recent shot of her sweet little mug. (and for the Mungenast family, isn't it eerie how much she looks like Lauren's baby face in this pic?)
Love to you all!
