Say "outside, walk, or wagon" and they run for a door

 Look at those beautiful eyes of Evan's.  Claire said her first word other than mama and dada last week and it was "baby".
 And the amazing smile.

 Our neighbors must have thought our children were prisoners this spring, they were at the windows and door facing the street pounding away for attention all the time.
 They are getting so big, they are getting good about sharing and playing together.  It is so fun to watch them play, they like to chase each other around a chair and they just giggle away.
When we were back in Morton at easter, we had to lift them onto the stool to see out the window now they are able to both get up on their own and share the small space.  This is the same window they spent a lot of time looking out last summer when we lived with my parents.  They are walking and climbing and finding all sorts of things to get into, it's hard to keep up.

 What is this thing in my hair?

 Hangin' with Uncle Bruce.  She likes wearing her Robeez shoes, in fact it's only in the last week or so that we finally got her to wear sandals.  For a while, if I even had sandals in my hands she would run crying in the opposite direction.
 I've got places to go and things to do and I can never do it all fast enough!
 Evan was not quite ready for bedtime, still wanting to have more fun however...
Claire had as much fun as she could and snuggled away with grandpa until we were ready to go.

She scores!

Is there a doctor in the house?

 Bryan finished school on April 29 and graduated a week later.  Upon completion of this major accomplishment, his job has been fulltime Dr. Dad.  He can play "build it", the xylophone and can even now hit the Little Tikes basketball hoop from most spots on the deck!  He has been enjoying his time with the tots and while he hasn't said it, I know that he is ready to start his new work.  He starts his residency on July 5th.  Congrats to Dr. Bry!


This was taken at the pre-commencement celebration, it was a fun time.
