Happy Mother's Day!

We spent the past weekend in Bettendorf with the Stichnoth family celebrating Mother's Day. We had a great time visiting everyone. After an especially long drive to the Quad Cities, it sure felt like a short weekend. We squeezed in lots of fun stuff though. We had lunch in LeClaire at Happy Joe's, went to the art fair in downtown Davenport, had a delicious steak dinner at Mimi's and a fabulous brunch at Aunt Jane's. The highlight of brunch however was the swing Uncle Ron rigged up in the backyard. Check out all of our fun from the weekend.

Check out this cool tree swing!
Uncle Ron, is it my turn yet?

Uncle James, let's go higher!
I'll just chill here for a bit. 
Higher Aunt Jane!
I'm a little grumpy but still adorable with my pouty face. 
I love green tractors. 
I've had enough of my sister pushing me around.

Whirlwind April

Gosh where has the time gone? April was a speedy month and I realized there were not pictures posted from the month. I am behind! The kids are doing great and changing every week. They're playing with words, starting to walk and keeping us very entertained. Here are a few highlights from April.

Who is that beautiful girl?
Mom...will you really fit through our toy tunnel?

I can do lots of fun tricks when mom and dad aren't looking.
It only took me a second to climb up on this table.
