Easter 2011

We hope everyone had a great Easter, we sure did here. We went over to a family friend's house for an hour or two then headed over to Jim & Cindy's house to spend the rest of the day. We had great food, good company and a lot of fun. Kayden searched for Easter eggs and did well, actually. Next year will be even more fun, I think, when he actually grasps the concept of finding the eggs.

Well, I'll keep this short and sweet. Hope everyone enjoyed their Easter!

Spring Fair!

The weekend before Easter the three of us went out and enjoyed a local spring fair. It was a lot of fun, but a bit disappointing since Kayden was too small to go on any of the rides. I would have loved to take him down that big slide, he would have loved it too! Oh, well, maybe next year. Even though he couldn't go on any rides, he just loved to people watch (Grandma Sally would be so proud!) and enjoyed looking at the animals. We were in one of the barns and they were lining up some sheep to be auctioned off and it baa'd right in front of Kayden and that jolted him a bit, but he didn't cry, so we moved on and looked at some cows and chickens. Kayden was able to play one of the games there, it was a fishing game, and he did really well. He even won a stuffed banana!

The little guy was so tired that he could hardly stay awake, but he managed to keep those little blue eyes open until we got in the car, then it was lights out.

Playing Outside

Well, the weather man was wrong about the weather today. He said it was going to be rainy all day, but we ended up having fabulous weather. So, I took Kayden outside to play on his new slide. He had so much fun, it was a bit cold outside, but when the weather is nice around here you take advantage of it, regardless of the temperature.

Here are some pictures of him playing outside.

Hood Canal

Kyle had last week off so we took advantage of it and went to Hood Canal. Kayden had such a great time playing on the beach and throwing rocks in the water. He just loved exploring everything, oysters, clams, rocks, sand, puddles and whatever else he could find on the beach. The cold weather didn't deter him from having a good time. By the time we were done at the beach he was covered from head to toe in sand, it even managed to find it's way into his diaper. He didn't like that so much, but really, who would. LOL. Needless to say, he had more baths in the four day period we were gone than he ever has. Ok, maybe a bit of an exaggeration, but he did have a lot of baths while we were gone. Here are some pictures of our fun trip. I can't wait for the sun to come out around here so we can go to some local beaches and have some more fun.
