March for Babies

This morning I participated in a 5 mile walk to raise money for the March of Dimes - March for Babies. It was fun to be a part of such a great organization trying to make sure all babies are born healthy. Jennifer Lopez even called and left a message on my answering machine thanking me for raising money and walking in this event - I am sure she singled me out, right?!! Wish we could have had the weather from earlier this week when it was 80 degrees (it was about 45 and drizzling today, so not real pleasant) but we stayed pretty warm as long as we didn't stop. Hopefully next year I can get Cory and Kaylynn to walk with me. This year they met me at the finish line and Kaylynn had already played in the "jumpy castle" and gotten her face painted. Here is a picture of my team and Kaylynn with her face painting.

Easter Festivites

The Easter Bunny was good to Kaylynn! She found lots of eggs on Easter morning at our house and then when we got down to Aunie's house for dinner the Easter Bunny had been there as well and left her a few things. She asked Aunie how he knew to come to her house too and Aunie said, "It's magic" and Kaylynn said, "Yes, it is magical!" Here are some pictures from the holiday.

Kaylynn in her Easter dress hunting for eggs before heading off to church.

Look what the Easter Bunny left!

YUM! Look at those ears!



We had to get up really early for church so K took a nap on the way to Aunie's. She did not want to take off her hat and gloves!

James, Kaylynn and Sophie. You try taking a picture of three kids age 4 and under!!

A better one of Kaylynn and her "baby brother".

Of course, I usually have a random picture at the end of all my Kaylynn posts and here is one of the new fan blades I made for her room. She likes them (I quote - "Awesome!!")!

Twisted randomness

For some reason we decided to pull the game "Twister" out the other day, which Kaylynn thought was *lots* of fun! However, she thought it was even funnier to watch Mommy and Daddy play. We also had fun, the first few times . . . but now the game is back in hiding!


We started getting ready for Easter last weekend. Here is Kaylynn with the eggs she dyed. Plenty more Easter pics to come, I am sure!


She also recently found this sleeping mask in her toy box which she has actually been using the last few nights (I snuck in to take this picture!). Maybe she will sleep in a little more this summer if she gets used to wearing it - we can only hope!


Finally, I leave you with a few pictures of a woodpecker that was in a tree out in front of our house the other day. It was the neighbors tree, so it was neat - until it starts pecking at my house, I will enjoy it!
