It was a beautiful day to be outside! You don't get TOO many of those here in Iowa, so you have to make the most of them. :) Kylie's friend, Elie, has this swing in her backyard. It was Kylie's first time in a "big" swing! :) She liked it for a couple minutes...
Then wanted to swing with me instead...
We're introducing new foods this week...
O, the joy of pears!
I wonder what she's dreaming about?

Showing off mad skills on her new piano!

Kylie & Grandpa Rietema...where did his head go?
Kylie loves her Daddy!
what cute cousins they are!
Sierra loved to help bounce Kylie in her bouncer seat...her legs are so tiny that she fit into Kylie's Bumbo seat...it worked out nice! :)
Kylie & Grandma Rietema...
Sierra's favorite place to be was in Kylie's face, giving her kisses and tickles! :)
Sierra petting the goats...
Kylie seemed to like the goats from a distance...
Sierra was more interested in getting a little closer! She ended up taking a tumble off that platform...ouch! The goat came over to lick her face while she was down...so, that helped...
Sierra is going to make a great "big sister" in August!
Sierra didn't even realize she could make the fish face...it was pretty exciting for her to see this picture after she did it...
Kylie has found that if she bends far enough she can stick almost all of her toes in her mouth at once! I've even caught her sticking BOTH big toes in at once! OK, kind of gross, I'm not gonna lie!
Love those boots!
Sierra helping Kate feed the goats...
On one of the days there we went to downtown Holland to shop around. Kylie was trying on a cute skirt at one of the kid shops...
Sierra had to get in on the action...
Then we went outside to play in the fountains...
Kylie thought Sierra was so funny running through the water...actually, she though EVERYTHING that Sierra did was funny! :)
The Rietema girls
Kate, Angela & I got matching headbands from Nepal at a store that supports people in third world countries...
