April 2010

April started with our community easter egg hunt on 4/3/2010. Teagan was not sure initially what the fuss was but once the kids got lined up and she realized the eggs were “balls” she was eager to collect as many as possible. The community rule was 10 eggs per child. She liked this so much as she put more and more in her basket we had to keep taking some out and re-hidding them.

Why are we still waiting…


Teagan and Craig planning out her course


She found and collected her first egg by herself…what an accomplishment


Surveying her collection so far…


She was followed by the paparatzzi



I can’t believe she can do this on her own. The difference between last year and this year is amazing. She looks so big.


After the egg hunt was done she took so time to play on the swings and the slide.




She even went down the big kid slide but this time had to relinquish her basket to daddy so she could have two hands.


At the end of the excitement she stopped to admire the Easter sign, and tried out her luck as Vana White.


Quick group photo


She has also really started to like helping water the flowers. Here she is in her favorite shoes – the frog boots that she would wear everyday if she could.


Nice technique


Puchi face for the camera


…Oh look a plane


She was exhausted after all that fun and closed her eyes for a little nap in the car.


On Sunday the 4th, the Easter bunny came and left some presents, primarily “potty candy” -her insentive to use the potty.


I think she has outgrown this sleeping outfit – the pants look a little short but the piggies are so cute.


Later on Easter we went out for brunch and a new local Italian restaurant. Teagan even let us put a bow in her hair. Here she is grabing a quick snack before lunch.

Eating with daddy. She loved the capers and was eating them by the spoonful. I guess the lemony flavor is what she liked.




Courtney and grandma joined us for the fantastic lunch.


We took advantage of some beautiful weather on Thursday and took her to the fantastic children’s park in Mclean.


Can you tell she is having a blast?


On the 18th we went to Elaine’s daughter -Maddie’s 1st year birthday celebration



Teagan’s birthday fall on a Thrusday this year so we got to spend the day together. Grandpa Max brought Teagan her own little outdoor couch and Teagan spent a lot of time finding the perfect spot on the new patio. She even supervised daddy working on the border.




While daddy was working on the patio. We went to the mall with the idea that she could play in the kid’s area. There were doing construction so it was closed but they had hired some people to come and paint faces, do characters and to do balloon animals. We had a blast and I was so happy to get some photos when we got home before her nap.




We had some nice weather in April and Teagan has been enjoying playing outside and anything that she can use as a pool she has ...bucket, blow-up raft, etc.
