Yesterday was Touch A Truck day – there were 35 different kinds of “trucks” in the parking lot of a local mall and kids could go climb on all of them. Kaya liked it pretty well, although the horns on some of the trucks were really loud. She preferred to sit on the quiet city bus, but we also got to see an 18 wheeler, ambulance, fire truck, motorcycle (not really a truck, but still cool), and many more.

Potty training coupled with typing lessons – the modern age of raising children

Although Daddy helped her put on the tat.

Suddenly and unexpectedly, a single beautiful tulip grew out of our yard. One of our parents must have planted it years ago.  

You can’t really appreciate the awesome tails we are wearing, but this is the best family picture we have yet (but alas, poor Max isn’t allowed inside the museum grounds so had to miss out on this one).

Had a great time watching Duke win the national championship last night. Go Devils! Laura and Dylan came over – Dylan and I refused to budge on our affiliations – but Kaya, Laney, and Laura donned both blue and red to watch the game. Even the dogs got dressed up.

Everyone tells me the girls look alike, although I’ve had a hard time seeing it (I think Laney looks like Tommy, and Kaya just looks like Kaya to me!). Laney finally feels solid enough that I think if Kaya were to throw her aside at this point, she’d be fine. So I can now take pictures like this:

Kaya has been on FOUR Easter egg hunts this year – FOUR! Including the Durham one (which was by far the lamest – sorry Durham, I love you but you lost this one), the Hillsborough one, one at school, and one at the museum. She is a professional egg finder actually and has many small trinkets to prove it. And she got to meet the Easter Bunny!

Everybody but Laney watched Duke crush Michigan State en route to the championship game (Laney had to face away from the TV because she’s under two). Go Duke!
