Ryan can read!! Well sort of. He loves Dr. Seuss. It's great...everything from Green Eggs and Ham to Hop on Pop to the Foot Book to the Nose Book to Ten Apples Up On Top - get the picture?! Dr. Seuss wrote a great A-B-C book which we read over and over and over. He's memorized the pages, but can identify the letter and then recite...super cute video. Check it out!

Easter Love
We had a wonderful Easter weekend with family and friends. It was a super busy weekend. Friday night we had a family Birthday celebration with the Handleys. Saturday started with a great Easter egg hunt at Church and then had a great BBQ with friends and their kids. 

The kids had a great time playing in the yard - Allison loved the bubbles.
Sunday started with a beautiful Easter service at Church - Ryan is at a wonderful age - his innocence is adorable. He likes to walk up towards the alter to say high to the "nice man in the window." He's referring to a stained glass window with an image of Jesus. When we leave he shouts "Bye Jesus". It's awesomely cute.

After Church we headed south to Chandler for another Easter egg hunt at Aunt Sandy & Uncle Paul's house...surrounded by cousins and friends, the kids had a blast.


The day ended back at Grandma and Grandpa Handleys house for a yummy Easter dinner with Aunt Val, Uncle Ben, Grandma, Grandpa, Aut Verone, Uncle Tom and new Cousin Heath. I forgot my camera - of course - so no pics of Allison's 2nd Easter dress or Ryan's awesome catepillar shirt - maybe I'll stage this photo - it would be a great one to capture.
We missed our family who lives far away - and hope we will all be together next year. Happy Easter!

Chicken
When Allison was born, I called her "chicken" for two to three weeks. I don't know why, not even sure when it began, but whenever she would squawk, I called her chicken.
Grandma Handley didn't like it one bit. She much preferred "sweetie" or "cutie", but definitely not Chicken. Then one day - she was maybe three weeks old - she became my little ladybug...and the name has stuck.
But don't you think from these Easter pic that Chicken was apropo? She loves the eggs!
