Close Up

Hey, it's my birthday too!

Gavey giving Emma some love, although it doesn't look as if she is interested...

We had a very small gathering to celebrate McKenna's big day and Ryan's. The kids all had a blast playing together, and we can't wait to do it again with all our friends and family at our summer party June 12th.

McKenna Quinn turns the big 1!

We celebrated at home on the 12th for McKenna Quinn's big day. She ate yogurt, rasberries, and brownies all like a big girl! I can't believe our little baby is 1. Where did the time fly? She really is the sweetest happiest little nugget. She is very insightful and quick to see the humor in things. She even knows just how to work the system all ready to get her brother into trouble when she isn't getting her way. We love her so much, and can't wait to see what this year brings us!

"This looks good!"

"I really want to play with that candle!"

"I think this taste delish!"

"Oh My Gosh, it's my birthday!"

Opening my first presents iwht help from Gavey

"CHEESEY"

"I wanted this baby so bad, so I COULD EAT IT!"

Grandma comes for a visit!

Grandma Marge came in for a quick visit, and the kids were able to get in some hugs. Grandma was brave enough to have Gavin assist her with her hair and make up...braver then I have ever been.

McQ spots her first egg!

Easter was so much fun at Grandma and Papa Fulle's. Gavin and McKenna had their first egg hunt, and had so much fun. McKenna still holds onto her favorite egg she found that looks like a chicken; she carries it all over the house. It was so great to be able to get together and see all the family.

Decorating Eggs

This year we decided to decorate eggs. Gavin picked out all the colors, while McKenna sat near by and supervised. We can't wait for the bunny visit. Gavin is hoping he brings, "my monies and chocolate."
