Two Birthdays and Ranch Dressing

Well, Spring Break was realllllly busy!

We had family in town, which was really fun! Jim's nephew Ryan, his wife Rebecca, and their daughter Bryn visited from WI. Bryn's first birthday was just a week away, so we celebrated early. Here is Hannah at the park enjoying Bryn's birthday festivities (thanks Tommy for sharin' your wheels,,,)
Ahhh...playin' at the park takes a lot out of ya..Hannah needs a rest...
Later we went to Tailgater's for dinner. I had made the mistake of introducing Hannah to Ranch Dressing...here she is dipping her french fries!
Maybe it would just be easier to drink from it...
Then it was time for cake! Elmo cake that is! When Hannah celebrated her first birthday, she wasn't very interested in cake. She poked at it, but wasn't sure if she REALLY wanted to put it in her mouth. So, to see her so involved in this birthday cake almost brought tears to my eyes! I'm not kidding! It was a bit of a relief to see a 1 1/2 year old devour cake, as quite often she pushes food away, saying, "noooooo".
Hmmmm...do I have food on my face?
Good stuff...
On the 21st it was my mom's (Hannah's grandma's) birthday! We went to Aunt Jaz and Uncle Joel's house. Hannah found Cousin Gavin's shopping cart right away! (Hannah has a shopping cart at home, which she generally chooses NOT to play with. However, the fact that this particular shopping cart isn't hers makes it that much more appealing!) Below is the "I better hurry before he catches me" face!
Just checkin' to make sure she's still "in the clear!"
My mom said that all she really wanted for her birthday was a nice picture with all 4 grandkids...
Sorry mom, these crazy kids aren't cooperating!
Take 2...getting closer...
This is the best one. The girls look FABULOUS. It's not their fault that the boys look a little silly...
Earlier that day... Grandma got a GREAT picture of Hannah and Zoey...girls are usually pretty cooperative!!!
Whew...what a busy week! Happy Birthday to all and to all a good night!!!
