Mom spent Mother's Day weekend in the field (don't ask her how she feels about this!), but Nathan and I still had fun! Ready to ride. Grandpa was impressed by my speed UP hills!
My future is bright...
Whew! What's a boy to do after all this activity? Read, of course! This is what Mom came home to along with fresh tulips from the garden. What a bright end to a long day and even longer weekend.
Thanks, Grandma and Grandpa, for the fun adventures!

We were rabbit-sitting this weekend. This bunny spent most of his time out of his cage and only chewed up a bit of our furniture. We took really good care of him. Note George, Bear, and a scuba diver in the cage for him to play with.
We enjoyed the great weather this weekend. We played in the yard and sandbox, spent lots of time at the playground, rode bikes, and only went inside for naps and to play with the bunny!

Mom is loving the sunny weather, but is not so fond of how it brings out the motorcycles. Nathan learned the sign for 'motorcycle' this week, and now he gets so excited every time one drives by that he has trouble napping. As if the sun's pull to be outside doesn't make napping hard enough...

Easter Prep

It's impossible to see in this picture, but our eggs are all decorated like zoo animals! Today we went on an egg hunt.
Our loot. It wasn't long before I (Evan) had all of the empty eggs in Nathan's basket, and all of the candy in mine. After surveying the take-home, Mom had a better understanding of why I was getting Easter mixed up with Halloween. On our bike ride to the egg hunt I asked, "Why aren't we wearing costumes?" Mom also wants to point out that although I have quite a few eggs, I gave two of my eggs to one of my friends who is a little smaller and did not get any, including one that I knew had a voucher for a prize in it. She says I have a big heart.

Zoo Crew

We couldn't have asked for a better day to visit the zoo with our friends. We missed you, Katy, Elsa, and Carrie!

Mom thinks Lauren is so cute in this picture...
and she thinks I'm darn cute in this one!

Beach Day

True to our native state, when the sun comes out, we bundle up and head to the beach!

Citizen Scientists

We love the wolf research cabin at our favorite wildlife park. We get to listen to different animal calls, watch the coyotes and foxes, and watch the wolves through our own viewing window in a "cave".

He shoots...

He scores!

Words I can say

Hi, Bye, Dad, Mama, That, Bus, Dog, Duck. Up next: Beep, Beep!
