Easter and the gift that kept giving....


This was a fun Easter. It was the first one that Little Miss "got". She now knows the deal. We had an Easter egg hunt at Grandpa Bobby's house outside with one of her cousins. They were all over the place! They had so many eggs that they kept falling out of their baskets.

Saturday we did a craft at a local store, while Branch and Mr. Man relaxed at home. Then we spent the rest of the day as a family at home. It was nice. Later that night we dyed eggs. So much fun!



Sunday, Branch took Little Miss to church while I stayed home with the boy. (There is a bad case of Measles going around, and his pediatrician recommends we not take him anywhere public for the first two months.) While they were gone the Easter Bunny showed up at our house!
Easter Bunny lefts some gifts*

Coming home and being amazed that the Easter Bunny HAD come!
If that egg had been a snake it would have bitten her.
She kept looking right past it.

This picture is funny, not just because of
her expression but because she is making
that face after we told her to smile, trying
to look around for more eggs at the same time!

We then went back to Grandpa Bobby's house for Easter dinner. All in all it was a great Easter weekend!

*We have given LIttle Miss this box of play-doh
3 times now.
First was Christmas 2 years ago, then Christmas this year
...and then Easter!

She is now playing with it as I write this!*

Who's who?


And now for a game of Who's Who?

The players are: Branch, Little Miss, and Mister Man.

Who is this? A...


I bet you can't guess who this is! B...

This is a hard one! C......
TRIVIA TIDBITS:
Branch was born 3 weeks late! THREE WEEKS! That is why his skin is so red in the picture. One of the doctors at the hospital said his skin was starting to fall off.

Little Miss was Breech and had oligohydramnios (low amniotic fluid). Version was performed at 38.5 weeks and induced then.

Mr. Man was born at 7lbs 11 oz, a full 1lb 10 oz bigger than his sister! Both Grandmas were present at the birth.

Happy Birthday Little Miss

ARGH! I thought I made this to automatically post on Little Miss's Birthday...

So...for Little Miss's birthday post I am going to be posting the lyrics to a love song, so I changed some of the lyrics, because if I didn't that would be weird...but here you go!

"Just The Way You Are"


Her eyes, her eyes
make the stars look like they're not shining
Her hair, her hair
falls perfectly without her trying

She's so beautiful
And I tell her everyday (yeahh)


When I see your face
There's not a thing that I would change

'Cause you're amazing
Just the way you are

And when you smile
The whole world stops and stares for a while

'Cause girl you're amazing
Just the way you are
*
She's so beautiful
And I tell her everyday

Oh you know, you know, you know
I'd never ask you to change

If perfect's what you're searching for
Then just stay the same


When I see your face
There's not a thing that I would change

'Cause you're amazing
Just the way you are
*
And when you smile
The whole world stops and stares for a while

'Cause girl you're amazing
Just the way you are


The way you are
*
The way you are
*
WE LOVE YOU LITTLE MISS! HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!

Today is the day...

We got the call this morning at 7. So here we are.

I cried when I gave Little Miss a kiss and a hug. She just wanted to play with her new birthday trains. Silly girl. I love her so much.

Now I am having contractions and writing on my blog, and checking facebook. The hard stuff hasn't hit me yet.

EEK!!
