Easter 2018

This was the first year for William to "get" Easter egg hunting. He wanted to stop and open each one of the eggs as he found them instead of gathering as many as possible. Not scared of his buddy the Easter Bunny either (did NOT get that from his mama!).

Annual IVF Celebration

Happy Embryo Implanting Day!! 

Birthday Donations

We delivered the donations received at William's birthday party to the Great Plains SPCA. William was excited to see the doggies (and maybe even the cats?) that the donations would be going to help. It was awesome to see how happy the staff was with the donations we delivered. So wonderful to spread kindness!

Christmas 2017

We had a couple of Christmas's this year! We got back from California just in time to celebrate Christmas at home. William understood what Christmas is a little more this year. He knew there were things in the boxes and bags under the tree and "helped" Bret and I open all of our presents along with ours. We were able to wake up on Christmas Day and have a family Christmas before heading to Topeka to see Bret's extended family. 

So thankful to get to see what Christmas is like through a child's eyes! Everything is so magical to William (not just at Christmas, but maybe more so right now). He makes us so happy!

2nd Birthday!

Our lil' babe is now 2! He's changed so much in the last year and I can't wait to see what the future will bring us! He had a construction-themed party as he loves his trucks and is starting to attempt to say their names when we see them in books or out the car window.

Silly Faces of William Brown

This kid has so much personality! I never know which William I am going to capture on camera. He is the sweetest thing in the world until something doesn't go his way. But he can he talked out of or distracted into not throwing a fit pretty quickly. Bret and I are so lucky to have him in our lives. Here's just a taste of his little (and getting bigger by the day!) personality:

mad because he put the shorts on his head, but they got stuck

Dinkel Family Picnic

We traveled to Topeka today for the Annual Dinkel Family Picnic! It is lovely to get together with Susie's side of the family. There are so many cousins & aunts and uncles to talk to and for Will to play with. He has three second cousins who are close to his age and two of them were there to play with.

best giggles!

second cousins!
