April 2012

April was a super busy month! Rowan celebrated her 1st Easter with a trip to Nana & Papa's house! It was a fun weekend...coloring eggs, egg hunt and Easter dinner with papa Lee's family.

The weekend after Easter, we took a trip to the Cities to take in a few Twins games!  On Friday night, daddy and mommy went alone.  Then on Saturday, Raegan went along.  Rowan stayed with her auntie Sharon.  We also celebrated Daddy's 30th Birthday!  On the way home we stopped to visit Great-Grandpa & Grandma Henslin.  They were excited to meet Rowan for the1st time!

                                                                   Happy 30th Dwight!

Welcome Home Rowan!


On Friday March 30th, we arrived home from the hospital with Rowan! Nana and Raegan were waiting for our arrival. We were so excited to get home, too! The first few days were pretty crazy around the Brandt household! It was so much fun watching Reagan give Rowan lots of hugs and kisses. Both of the girls would generally nap at the same time, so mommy was able to catch a few naps, too.



 This was the 1st morning after we got home, Raegan had to check on her baby sister. She does this every morning :)

                                                                      1st day home!
 We were so happy Nana could stay for a few days.  We were so thankful she was able to come and stay with Raegan while we were at the hospital!
                                                     Uncle Ryan and Auntie Jen came to visit!
