Makenna: 16 months, Noah: 2 1/2 years-
We celebrated Easter this month with Grandma and Grandpa Mooney, Grand Uncle Dick and Aunt Barb and Yvonne, Sophie and Lorena. We had dinner and the kids went on an Easter egg hunt. I was impressed with Noah’s Easter egg hunting skills and even Makenna got the hang of looking for eggs. Steve celebrated his 32nd Birthday on April 8th, and we took a trip to the zoo during the month too. It was starting to get hot this month but the pool isn’t warm enough to swim in yet so we got the kids a mini splash pad to cool down in and they are enjoying it.
Makenna has started to say a few phrases now… “come here mommy,” and ”Thank you,” “There you go,” “wash hands,” and ”all done” are regulars in her vocabulary. She’s very sweet but is also developing a mischevious personality… she thinks its funny when you tell her no (Mommy and Daddy do not like this). Makenna does well sleeping through the night but has a habit of waking up aound 5:30 in the morning. As you can guess, I am tired of waking up this early and am trying anything to get her to sleep longer!! Just recently I tried covering her windows up to make the room dark in the morning and I’m seeing some potential hope…
Noah has been doing well this month. He has been napping so well (which I LOVE). He enjoys watching his Disney movies, playing outside, and splashing in the water. There is a lot of “I do, I do” because he wants to do anything he can himself! We are trying to get him to be a better listener, but we know he’s going through his terrible two’s so we are tying to be patient. We even notice that he is trying to get his sister to do things we tell him he can’t do… where do they learn these thing!:)
Enjoy this months pictures!
