In the month since Kinsley turned 2 back on March 11th, we have had a lot going on: doctors appointments to track the progress of Kinsley's little brother or sister (we hit the 14 week mark yesterday!); multiple birthday parties for Kinsley's friends (who are also turning 2); lots of new vocabulary coming from our little 2 year old as she is now stringing together words to form sentences and calling everyone she knows by name; having fun doing any of the following activities outside: swinging on her pink swing...going to the park...playing with bubbles or play-doh...riding on her tricycle or her "rah-rah"...and her new favorite: hunting for Easter Eggs (more on that below).
Tuesday's at the park (it's becoming a weekly tradition): Kinsley, Kendall, and Eloise!

I absolutely love this photo. Daddy's girl for sure.
Baby #2 at almost 13 weeks!
But...perhaps the biggest milestone from this past month: the move to a BIG GIRL BED! Seriously, we did it. Her new Queen-Sized mattress set came in last weekend. We are using an existing Queen bed from our guest room, which is soon becoming the new nursery for baby #2! Kinsley's big girl room is still in transition, and the Pottery Barn bedding is being washed as we speak, but here's how I found her and her daddy on her first official night in her new bed. Adorable.
Spring Break also brought a trip down South from Aunt Jenn, Uncle Chris, and cousins Julian (8), Alex & Lilly (3). The kiddos had SO much fun together - wish we all lived closer, but it was great to see these cousins play together so well and they had a blast! We went to PDK to watch the planes, went to the Yellow River Game Ranch, had a cookout and pre-Easter Egg Hunt on Saturday, and just played-played-played!

Checking out the Yellow River!
Mama, I love this place!
Aww, sweet cousins holding hands!
Feeding the chickens.
She wouldn't give up her carrot - after losing a few to some hungry animals at the beginning of the zoo, she decided to hold onto this one. :)
Cousins in the tub! This is one of those photos we will have to pull out to embarrass them when they are all teenagers.
This is one tech-savvy generation...all 3 of them (2-3 years old) know how to use iPhones, iPads, and computers. Here, they are all intrigued by Mickey Mouse videos on You Tube.
We watched Angela and Danny's dog Pal for a few days while they were at the beach...here, Pal is rather interested in whatever Kinsley is eating.
Swinging by the runway at PDK, watching the planes and jets take off and land before heading inside to get some lunch at Downwind - what a fabulous place for kids! She loved the combination of playground + airplanes!
Checking out the "shee-shee's" in Pop's pond!
Kinsley was ready for her pre-Easter Egg Hunt!
Hunter helping out Kelly and Lilly with finding eggs.
Kinsley: I found one in the swing!
Lilly: Where!? I don't see any eggs in here!
Kinsley wasn't afraid to get her hands dirty when it came to finding Easter eggs.
Mommy and Kinsley searching for eggs - and if you look hard, you can see the first glimpse of Baby #2 in this photo in the form of a "baby bump!"
What a fun time!
But someone was not happy that the egg hunt was over. :(
Mae-Mae with Julian and Alex.
Final photo of the cousins! What a fun week!
And last but certainly not least...in fact, it is the reason that we all CELEBRATE this time of year...Easter. What a beautiful Easter Sunday to celebrate our Risen Savior! After a lovely church service with Tommy, Mary, Kelly, and David, we took one very tired toddler home for a long nap and awoke to a surprise from the Easter Bunny.
