Pictures

Makaylin was checking out some of my new photography "props".

Ryker hangin' out on the crate Adam built for my photography stash.

M had to try it out too... she wasn't too sure about it.

Ryker... just being Ryker!

Happy Easter!

Well, to end the kid's birthday weekend, we celebrated Easter! They had a good time finding their baskets (M is a pro... she found BOTH of them!) and taking their very first wagon ride. :)

Happy Birthday, Makaylin & Ryker!

Yesterday we celebrated M & R's first birthday. Wow! We didn't have a party, because both our families are in other states, but we had a fun day anyway. We were able to Skype with both families. The twins opened presents when we skyped with the Hester's, and then ate their cakes when we skyped with the Hauser's... so it worked out ok!

They were very spoiled and received some GREAT gifts, which included: pop-up books (they LOVE these! Thanks Auntie Kimberly, Uncle Lance, Cousin Hailey, and Cousin Addyson!), Wagon (Thanks G-ma Cindy and Papa Jerry!), Picnic Table/Sandbox (Thanks Nanny and Papa Hester!), Clothes and sippy cups (Thanks Auntie Vanessa!), Slide, swimming suits, and a pool (Thanks mommy and daddy!). Needless to say, we should NOT get bored anytime soon. :)

Enjoy the pictures! I'm hoping to post again today at some point. :)

Now and Then

Makaylin LeNae 4/3/09 4lbs. 3 oz.

Makaylin-- Now!

Makaylin is such a spunky, curious, drama queen! She is a very happy one year old girl and loves: shopping (the cart is so much fun for her), her sippy cup, graham crackers, books, Ni Hao Kai Lan, puppets, feeding the dogs, and swinging!

Ryker Finley 4 lbs.

Ryker-- now!

Ryker is a curious, happy, and is definitely ALL boy! He loves: rough-housing with his daddy, playing outdoors, laughing at the dogs, throwing balls, pop-up books, bananas, peek-a-boo, paci's, Handy Manny, and sitting on the treadmill. :)

Today is their birthday, and we're having a great day. Will post another update later!
