Just like Mommy

I love to braid hair. I love mine braided and I love to braid anyone's hair that is a willing participant. This week Rylee let me attempt to braid her hair. Her hair is so fine and still pretty short so it wasn't all that easy to do! Anyways afterwards I braided mine too so we would be twins.





Then last night my Aunt, Uncle and 2 cousins came to meet Makenzie. Here are a few pictures from that.

then Reynolds with Makenzie

Then a preview of the Easter pictures to come...

First Bath and New Toys

Now that Makenzie's umbilical cord has fallen off, she was able to have her first bath. Of course big sister Rylee wanted to help. Makenzie did really well and didn't hardly even fuss at all!









Then here are a few pictures of Rylee playing with her new toys from her birthday! We're gonna make her a softball player one day...she's already practicing now!








Lastly one of Rylee hanging out with Makenzie during "tummy time." (For whatever reason this picture won't turn the other way)

Birthday Party

Yesterday we had a little birthday party with a few of Rylee's friends. There were 6 kids here and we had a blast. Thanks for coming everyone!

Wagon Ride

Yesterday my mom kept both girls for me while I got a little rest break. It was really nice! When I went to pick them up she had promised them a wagon ride so we did that before going home. Here are a few pictures from that and a few that my sister took of Makenzie

The playground

Since the weather is finally getting nice again, we decided to take the girls to the playground today. Rylee had a blast! Makenzie decided it was more fun to sleep than play. Here are some pictures of the 2 of them. It's amazing to see how much of a difference a couple months brings in terms of how much Rylee can and will do on her own there.



how Makenzie spent the trip

Big Sister

Rylee is such a good big sister. She loves Makenzie and always wants to help. As soon as Makenzie starts crying Rylee runs off to find a passy for her. Here are a few pictures of them from the last couple of days.

Sisters

Here are a couple of pictures from yesterday when my sister was over. She got Rylee and Makenzie playing together and got some really good pictures of them. Rylee wanted to hold Makenzie's hand. It was too cute.
