Taking the kids to see the Easter Bunny is always an adventure. John’s first visit was pretty uneventful in March 2008. The next year however, he was a year older and he was not too happy to meet the big bunny. It looks like he is trying to run away in this picture. I think we missed… Continue reading The Easter Bunny
Tonight at dinner, I gave John a little wink. Normally in response to that he attempts to wink back and basically ends up blinking at me. Not tonight. He winked back at me!

Today Daddy and I wanted to go to the mall and do a little shopping. We decided that we would take two strollers to help eliminate any whining. We told John that if he was really good while we were in the mall then he could go on a ride. Unfortunately we left the mall… Continue reading Good boy?
