Easter

























We had a wonderful Easter! Brody and I dyed eggs on Friday, which he wanted to hide right then! It is hard for a little boy to wait. On Saturday night when I got off work we made cupcakes with Easter sprinkles (of course!). Brody and Sawyer both enjoyed their Easter baskets on Sunday morning. It was difficult to keep Brody from eating all the candy at once!! After church and a great message about living the "Resurrection" life, we spent time with family and hid eggs. Brody had difficulty understanding why he could not hide and find the eggs! My niece Karis really enjoyed hunting eggs. We are so blessed! and what better day than Easter to be reminded of our blessings and what our Lord and Savior did for us! I hope everyone had a great Easter!

Sawyer 10 months old!






Another month has flown by! Our girl now has her 2 top teeth for a total of 4 teeth! She has taken about 1 1/2 steps on her own but she is not brave enough to let go and try to walk longer than that yet. She is such a sweet girl. If Brody is laying on the floor she crawls over to him as fast as she can and lays on him and giggles like its the best thing ever! She has a plugged tear duct in her left eye and we saw the pediatric eye doctor this week. She will be on steroid eye drops and oral antibiotics for about 4 weeks, hopefully that will clear it up if not she will have the tear duct probed while under anesthesia. Brody is doing well. We have started back to mothers day out and he is doing well with that. We are still working on the potty training! He is the most entertaining child! He was laying with Joel and I the other night and said "we are best friends aren't we?" How precious is that?! I hope everyone has a wonderful Easter weekend! It has been interesting trying to explain the resurrection to a 2 1/2 yr old but we are getting there! I hope everyone remembers the sacrifice that Jesus made for our sins!
