Jeff's day solo with the kids started out by taking 

Liam and Calynn to her last day of gymnastics.

Followed up with some basketball lessons.

They had a Burger King picnic for lunch,

and everyone was happy when I returned.

Liam and I posing before I headed out for the day.

I just love the curls he is getting now on top of his head.

Poor Calynn after getting a face full of flour.

We were making cookies and Liam got a little

crazy with the stirring. She thought we should take

a picture of it to show him what he had done.

April 25

I started teaching Liam how to sleep on a cot for nap 

instead of in his pack and play. He fussed and fought for about 20

minutes before passing out.

So proud of herself for "helping" me by staying quiet.

I took the kids to a park that we love but had not been 

to in a while for some reason. Calynn just loved these

big chair swings.

Liam mostly wanted to run, climb, explore. 

He did keep his sister company for a few minutes though.

This park has little wooden play houses. They were peeking in the 

window when I went around to the door and surprised them.

Back and forth through the tunnel

We were joined at the park by my friend Mary and her

son George who is the same age as Liam.

Calynn was great at this, and Liam really wished he could be too.

Liam is very interested in dogs now. He points them out everywhere.

Naturally he was drawn to this rock wall.

Exploring

Calynn way up in the tower

She could barely see out the window on her tiptoes.

Calynn was saying "take my picture Mama, I want to 

show Dada how high up I am"!

Trying to be brave and go down the big slide

Really unsure at this point and afraid she will get "zapped"

(by the static electricity of the plastic slide). She did eventually make it

down right before we left.

Mary sweetly giving Calynn a swinging lesson.

Snack time

After lunch and nap we headed out for an ice cream

cone treat. A pretty messy adventure with these two.

Calynn with her current favorite toys

She spent alot of time getting those guys to sit just right on the horses 

with the glasses on.

Easter morning excitement

Dying eggs with Jeff

Miss Calynn all dressed up

Calynn was so tired during lunch, and so anxious for 

her Grandma to arrive that she curled up on the couch 

near the window to wait for her and ended up falling asleep.

Liam trying to share some chapstick with his Grandpa

The weather was so nice we spent a lot of the day 

outside.

Showing me the flowers she found

Liam LOVES smelling flowers

Picking the dandelions

Heading out for a little walk

When Grandma arrived We finally had our Easter egg hunt
