Happy Easter!

What the kids found when they woke up. And yes, Tristan got to his before I was able to take this picture. The Easter Bunny is not that sloppy.

Tristan got all dressed up for the big day.




Say hello to the next Derek Zoolander.

This is pretty much how Rylann acted every time she saw me point the camera her way.

Finally, at the very end, she stops long enough to pose with Nana.

The Hunt is ON!

This year, we went once again to my old high school to hunt for eggs. Very few kids, lots of candy= an amazing egg hunt. Beware of the picture overload that follows.

And so it begins.

Tristan is all business.



Okay, maybe not quite ALL business.




Sweet success!




Tristan's talent for finding shiny objects on the ground proves to be useful.




Rylann's chocolate radar pays off, yet again.








A sad Tristan, after the candy has all been found.




Rylann checking out her loot.




Um, sugar high, anyone?











Both smiling, if not looking at the camera.




Rylann practices her twirls.




Yes. He is a rascal.




See what I mean?

The End.

Yet Another Disney Trip

Yes, we went again. Yes, I have more pictures. And yes, we had a ton of fun, as always! Rylann and Tristan are not the only Disney freaks in this family.

A teething Tristan and Daddy ride Dumbo...

again...

and again. This is obviously Tristan's favorite ride.

Snow Rylann

Finally, someone else is taking the pictures!

Snow Rylann in line. Yes, even princesses need to wait their turn.




Snow Rylann + Scurvy Pirate

Tristan taking a break by the Rivers of America.

What a cutie!

Rylann samples Goofy's cooking.

Happy Valentine's Day

Just pretend that these aren't late, okay? For me?

Hope your day was great!

Randomness

The title says it all. Random pictures of random moments.

Christmas Morning

Christmas morning was a blur of happy faces, laughter, and flying wrapping paper. Both kids got tons of presents, including a drum for Tristan and the Cinderella baby doll that Rylann begged Santa for. The mall Santa had told her that such a thing did not exist when she asked for it. He has no idea the damage control I had to do after that comment. Silly Santa.

Rylann with her "imaginary" doll.

Finding the beat.

Little Drummer Boy

Rylann with her latest fave Disney princess, Sleeping Beauty.

Tristan certainly enjoys the way the box looks.



Rylann got ANOTHER doll in her stocking.

Tristan got the hang of unwrapping quickly.

Beware of a baby on a Christmas present high.

Tis the Season

The following is a collection of Christmas themed shots of Rylann and Tristan, taken over a series of days. Although taking a picture of two kids together and happy is a daunting task, it wasn't a problem this year. Such a change from last year, when I had to photoshop a smiley Tristan head over a sad Tristan head to make a decent Christmas card. Indeed.
