Easter egg hunt

In our neighborhood - these little guys had a blast!!!!!!!

Sierra would spot a far away egg and sprint for it (sometimes the bigger kids got there first but she was a great sport about it!).

Reid would see an egg, point to it and yell "I see one!", "there's another one!", "I found more eggs!". He did great, and found 12 eggs for his basket :)

What a fun neighborhood tradition!

Spring flowers

Beautiful!

The picture with the hug and silly face totally captures Sierra's personality! She loves to be goofy!!! But she is sweet with her brother (most of the time) too!

Sunblock

The other day, the sun was in Reid's eyes....but he was quiet. I turned around and saw this! Very resourceful!

...we've come a long way. He used to whine, cry and rub his eyes until the sun wasn't shining in his window.

T-shirts

My laundry helpers ended up wearing the clean clothes!

They thought this was hilarious! They laughed for 10 minutes straight! Then went and stood by the door (while holding hands) by the door, do excited for Daddy to come home and show him!

Funnies

Reid...

(pointing), says "those are your shoes. These are my shoes. They're cool."

"I have a ant bite. From a ladybug."

Sierra...
As I was closing her bedroom door at naptime, I said "I love you." and she replies "I love you too. I hope you don't see any dragons!". Haha, SO random!

While opening her Easter basket, she grabs a handful of the green "straw" and excitedly says "I got hay!!!". Sweet girl, is a great present opener - she is so excited and genuinely says "thank you for getting me _______" for each little gift.

Me: Sierra, please whisper, your brother is sleeping.
Sierra (in a normal, non-whisper): I can't whisper. I lost my whisper voice. It left my body. Another day when I was eating, I opened my mouth to eat and my whisper voice just came out! It was so sneaky! I think it's outside in the garden. We'll have to go look for it later.

Daddy: I found something in the toilet. It looks like you went potty by yourself and forgot to flush. Did you wipe?
Sierra: well, I went potty and I couldnt reach the toilet paper. It was too far away. I tried to reach it (stretches out her arm to demonstrate), but I almost fell into the toilet! So...I just decided to skip it.

1-13

Reid just counted from 1-13 and only skipped "4"...all on his own! He was spinning around and counting ... and then stopped, wobbled and giggled saying "I'm dizzy, heehee!"

Reid's ABC's

I had no idea Reid knew most of his ABC's until one day last week I asked him to sing it...and he did! He usually clams up when the camera comes out, but I finally got a pretty good video. At his best (i.e. when big sis isn't "helping" in the background), he says "A, B, C, D, E, F, G...LMNOP, Q, R, S, T, U, V, W, X, Y and Z"
