Easter fun, Gymnastics Parties, and Park Play - April 2 - 15, 2012

Kaetlyn's Thoughts
Once again, we've been lagging in the blogging department.  But never fear, my Mom has taken a bunch of pictures to make up for it!  We've had a wonderful two weeks, including celebrating Easter, going to a birthday party, and enjoying some really nice weather here in the Pacific Northwest.

I'll start with Easter weekend.  The day before Easter, Mommy, Daddy and BSG and I all got to go to the ZOO with my friends Aunty Holly and Kayla!  They were having the "Bunny Bounce" at the zoo and I got to learn to go egg hunting!

Look Mom, an egg!
We had a really nice time and got to see some animals too - including a big ole' elephant, who I thought was really nifty!  Even Gracie enjoyed the zoo...
After the zoo, we went to my friend, Christopher's second birthday party.  It was a GYMNASTICS birthday party, which meant there was a LOT of energy expended!
Hanging out in the foam pit!
Climbing the big, big, big blow up slide...
Peek-a-boo...
Hanging with Peyton and Dominic on the parallel bars!
I really, really liked these bars!
Even Baby Sister Grace got in on the act!!!
Testing out the balance beam...
Yeah - I've got this!
After all that, you might think the weekend was over, but no!  The next day was EASTER!  It was awesome!  We got to wear all kinds of fun head gear...
I'm a cute little bunny!
And Gracie too!

And dress up in some pretty fancy finery...

It was a really, really beautiful Easter Sunday here, so Mommy and Gracie and I went out for a walk during which, Gracie and I proceeded to show Mommy what life's all about...SISTER GIGGLES!


We hope you had a nice Easter too! :)

At school this past week, I've been quite busy.  Mrs. Linda shared some really fun moments I've had...

Hanging out in the "bear blocks" at school...not sure why I love this so much, but I do!!




It's been a great two weeks!

Gracie's Perspective
What a fun two weeks!  As you can see from what Kaety has written, we've been busy, busy bees (or bunnies! hee hee) :)

I am pulling up on EVERYTHING and starting to cruise on furniture and behind just about any object I can find to push! I am happy as long as I can stand up and bounce up and down, or try to move my feet!!!

As you can see from this video, pretty much any object is fair game for walking behind...


I also like to try to walk behind actual walking toys and Nester is my FAVORITE!!!


In addition to all this walking, we've spent a lot more time outside and have visited several local parks where I'm perfecting the art of the swing...
Chillaxin' in my rockin' swing...
I don't seem to enjoy the swing quite as much as Kaetlyn...yet...


I'm also not too sure of this whole grass thing, but I sure do look cute sitting in it, according to my Mom!
Pondering the facts of life (look at that awesome posture!!!)

Watch my Ninja moves!!!

When not at the park, I spend a lot of time with my Big Sister Kaet, trying to show her my cool "big kid" moves.  Here we are comparing belly sizes...


Also these last two weeks, Daddy's been testing out his camera skills on both Kaety and me, trying to catch us in different lights and poses...

Sweet and innocent...

Have a great week!
