You are now almost 15 months old. You are 16lbs, and love to crawl all over the place. You prefer to not be confined. You like to stand up in the shopping cart. You have just this week decided you need to taste everything anyone is eating. You squawk and yell something that sounds like "Dat iwan Dat!" until someone gives you a bite. You just started to swallow a little bit of your food. You love smoothies, and water. You can sign "more" You have started to tantrum. You will swat at someone when they are bothering you. You shake your head no when you don't want something.

You hate hats, and hair clips, and headbands. You have 10 teeth 8 are already out and two almost all of the way out.

Easter Baird Style

Easter morning outside of church
Easter this year was really fun! The girls attended 3 great hunts, and loved every second of the candy, and play.

Our adopted Grandma Joanie set up the most adorable Easter hunt for a few of the girls in Chloe's class, and envited us to join. She had everything set up so perfectly. We first ate lunch and then played with playdough, and then went out for the hunt. The girls loved every minute of it.

I just love this picture of the three of them. It's getting a bit easier to take pictures of all of the, becasue Piper is cooperating better now.. for pictures that is.

I was really very proud of Piper at the Hunt. She behaved so well, and was super excited to be hunting for eggs. She didn't even stop to find out what was in the eggs. She just kept hunting, and when she found out that there were prizes in her eggs.. she was so serious about keeping this fun going for as long as possible.

Penelope was really great too. It was her nap time, but she wasn't grumpy at all. She enjoyed checking out all of the gorgeous gardens, and flowers while the older girls hunted.

Whatever plant this is I NEED it. It is so pretty, and Joanie told me what it was and I of course forgot. Aren't they beautiful?!

My mom set up an easter egg hunt with dyed eggs for the girls in our back yard. They loved that they could actually eat the eggs, and wanted them all cracked for an egg feast right away..
