Happy Easter!

Happy Easter, everyone!!  Zane enjoyed his second Easter today.  The Bunny brought him 3 different sized bouncy balls, big fat crayons (to chew on??), and some bubbles.  He was very excited when he saw his basket this morning and said, "Ball!!"  He even got to see the Easter bunny at brunch today, and we're pretty sure he said "bunny" a few times.  Zane was pretty excited about seeing a giant walking stuffed animal :) 

Some of his other new words include "wow" and "blocks."  He also associates "daddy" and "mama" with us now for sure - I think he has been for a while, but I wasn't completely sure until he pointed to our pictures in the hall the other day.  We're working on saying "Molly" too, but it sounds like "mama" most of the time. 

Then after his nap, he continued the day with a potluck at some friends' house.  Zane got to inspect the garden, meet a puppy, watch the bigger kids play, and follow around the chickens in the backyard.  It was a busy day!  I did a bad job of taking pictures today, but I did catch the quick shot of him in his grown up button down shirt above :)

Yesterday the weather was gorgeous, and Zane got to play outside in the afternoon without a jacket on for the first time in what feels like forever!  We played at a playground in the morning too - after he decided to climb on top of an activity table a few times, I figured it might help to get some of the climbing out of his system.  Silly me.  I'm pretty sure his new found love of climbing isn't going anywhere!  That was the overall theme to his week... climbing :)

Climbing on a big drum at school,  the activity table, the rocking ottoman in his room, a big container of clothes, us, stairs, slides...
