One Crazy Day

Our first day of vacation almost seemed surreal. We spent a ridiculous amount of time in the car. Keaton did not inherit my ability to sleep at the drop of a hat.




We had a wonderful dinner at Big Poppy's that made it all worth it.




And she found secret decoder Easter rings with Super Dad (who drove us to Florida) and Uncle Suck.

Summer Is Here

I have had to keep reminding myself this spring that it is only March-especially when my lilac is blooming. Tonight we had our first trip to Putz's. Definitely one of our summertime favorites. Here is the video asking Keaton if she wants to go.

As we stood in line Keaton spied a girl who had sprinkles on her cone. She told me she wanted spices on her cone.

Happy St Patricks Day

We Headed out to meet Katie, Dave and Julia at the St Patricks Day Parade today. It was a beautiful day for a parade.



Keaton messing with Dave.



Enjoying the sites with Dave.



It seems we have gone straight from mild winter to summer here. We came home to a blooming tulip in March.

When Did This Happen?

There have been several pictures over the past few weeks that have made me wonder, when did she get so big? Instead of family presents with Amy, Cindy, Lindsay, and Perry this year, we booked a night at Great Wolf Lodge. We had a fantastic time. Keaton was super excited to get down to the pool.



She has also been able to try out her new tricycle. I actually bought this at a tag sale before she could walk.

Weekend Visit

Presidents Day weekend we had a wonderful visit from Scott, Jeff, and Joseph. Keaton asked a million times when baby Joseph was coming to visit the week before. She also insisted he was going to sleep in her bed. We hung out all weekend playing. Keaton had a blast with Joseph. She even got her camera out several times and asked us to take pictures of Baby Joseph.



Random pic of her painting.




More holding Joseph.






You will notice her in her footie pajamas. I realized when I went to work on Wednesday that she had not put on regular clothes since we got home from breakfast on Saturday. We had just been changing her from one pair of pajamas to another all weekend.

Favorite Game

Keaton's favorite game by far these days is hide and seek. Here she is hiding in her bed.


The new super secret hiding place she found this morning.
