Here are some pictures mostly from April, that I either forgot to post or didn't fit elsewhere.
 |
| I don't think I included any pictures of Ruth with her Easter basket, but here it is...her first ever! |
 |
| This is Brian's Aunt Ruth with baby Ruth. |
 |
| While we were in Utah, Uncle Craig and (a pregnant) Aunt Sara took Wes and Sydney on a backyard campout. |
 |
| Wes with my mom holding Ruth the weekend of the blessing. |
 |
| I played Triominos with Sydney one morning while Wes was at school. |
 |
| Random picture of Ruth one morning. |
 |
| Sleeping sister in her mommy's arms. |
 |
| Ruth's first attempt at the Bumbo! |
 |
| Brian and I went on a date night to the Boise temple. |
 |
| My sister, Jennie, had a beautiful set-up for the baby shower she threw for her sister-in-law who was having twin girls! |
 |
| The "sweet pea" favors...animals cookie pops dipped in green candy coating. |
 |
| Ruthie having some tummy time. |
 |
| Sydney's "earrings" (aka: temple stickers). |
 |
| I cleaned off my night stand and these are all of the books I had...not all read, unfortunately. |
 |
| Baby girl smiles! |
 |
| Ruth had her 2-month appointment (90th% for height) and Wes had his 6-year check up. It's nice to have healthy kiddos! |
 |
| During one quiet time, Sydney fell asleep in this bed she made in a giant plastic bin in the closet. It's kind of hard to spot her head! |
 |
| Happy Ruth outside! |
 |
| Sisters... |
 |
| One evening I let Sydney do my hair - and take a picture - while the boys were gone. |
 |
| The three Hanks girls in our family. |
 |
| Action shots of the kids jumping off the trampoline into Dad's arms. |
 |
| Sydney's turn! I love the facial expressions. |
 |
| Ruth getting stronger at tummy time! |
 |
| I took this picture of Ruth to send to Brian one morning when he was out of town. |
 |
| We had some beautiful days so the one morning while Wes was actually school, Sydney's friend from across the street, Courtney, came over and the girls had a snack outside. |
 |
| That same beautiful day, the kids played a bit at Wes' school after we picked him up from Kindergarten. |
 |
| Again, same day, the kids had a picnic outside. The first of the season! |
 |
| The weather was so nice, we busted out the kiddie pool and the kids got to test out their swimsuits they got for Easter. |
 |
| A picture we sent to Dad, since he was out of town, of the kids playing in the water. I hung outside and cleaned out some weeds in the yard. It was a very productive day! |
 |
| This is a note Wes wrote for Ruth. It says: "I love to kiss you Ruth. That means I {heart] you." He sure loves his baby sister! |
 |
| A random "baby in a mug" picture. I saw one of my friends do it with her baby (some blogger lady originated the idea) and I thought it'd be funny. Late night entertainment with a baby and without a husband! |
