Easter pictures

A few weeks ago I had the opportunity to take the kids to have their pictures taken with a real bunny and chicks. Of course I jumped all over this because I know in the (not so distant, probably) future, Samuel will balk at me wanting to take cutesy pictures of him like this. Becca is a HUGE animal lover so she was in heaven patting the bunny and chicks. Samuel, while he had fun looking at the animals, was most amused when the chicks pooped on the floor. 100% boy, I tell you.

Many thanks to Abbie from Keepsake Portraits and Designs for doing such a great job! There's a good chance that if you read this blog, you got an Easter card made from one of the images from this session. Here are some of the other shots from that day:

Messy

Yogurt: it's not just for eating anymore.



Recent Pictures

Here are some pictures of the kids from the past few weeks:

Becca playing in the big box of rice we call the scooping box:

If you look closely, you will see she is trying to eat some of the rice here. She is WAY more of a biter/taster/eater of non-food items than Samuel ever was. We are constantly telling her not to eat things like crayons, paper, etc...

Samuel working on spelling names with some blocks:

Becca wants to do EVERYTHING that Samuel does. In this picture, he climbed up on a chair to reach something on the counter, and Becca decided she needed to be up there too:



Here they are watching a movie on the computer. Becca has become obsessed with Little Einsteins lately and asks all the time for "annie? june?" However, she only wants to sit still for the theme song, then she gets bored, or asks you to play the song over and over and over again. Thank goodness for shows being available through disney's website or through netflix. It makes it easy (although hardly enjoyable to the adults) to play the theme song 500 times in a row.
