A Trip to Visit the Bunny and Dyeing Easter Eggs

Today Auntie Ang came to join us for a visit to the bunny. Anna didn't like him very much. :)

Then we dyed some Easter eggs! 

Anna did a great job!  They were supposed to be glittery, but that didn't work out very well.  Oh well... she had fun. :)

Playgroup Easter Party & Egg Hunt

Today we had much fun at the playgroup Easter party!  We started out by dyeing eggs.  Anna is very proud of her pretty green egg!

Then we had some yummy lunch... Anna ate a good lunch then had a cupcake!

Then it was time for the Easter egg hunt.  It was a gorgeous day... and she had to climb up and slide a couple times before she could hunt eggs.

Time to hunt eggs!

Found some!

Playtime amidst the egg hunting...

And an attempt at  a group shot... ha!  Anna was very uncooperative... she kept saying no picture and running away... that's her on the far right.

We had so much fun!  Thanks for having us, Kim!

A Pretty Day to Relax

I had my 34 week appt today and Luke is doing great.  He is a bit low, but I wasn't surprised by that!  I'm not on bedrest, but supposed to be doing 'limited activity.'  Hope Anna is on board with that!  ha!  She did good this afternoon... we mostly played around on the back porch... well, I sat in the chair and Anna played in the sandbox and did everything else she could in the backyard :)  It was a lovely afternoon!

Sunday School Shower

The sweet ladies from my Sunday school gave Luke a diaper & wipe shower today.  It was lovely!  There was an ice cream sundae bar!!

Anna cleaned up the strawberries!

All the girls!

First Egg Hunt of the Season!

Today was our neighborhood egg hunt eggstravaganza!  Here Anna is ready to get some eggs!

Anna in action... and yes, she is barefoot... she refused to put on her shoes!

Stopping to check out what was inside an egg...

Cheese!

Please disregard the first 20 seconds of this, as Mark didn't know it was on and I couldn't figure out how to cut the beginning...

The train is cool!

Potty Training Wrap-Up and Girls' Night!

So, the potty training didn't happen in 3 days and I kept it up for another day and a half but Anna just wasn't quite ready... we are going to keep trying not so intensely and see what happens, but I'm not going to stress about it!  She'll figure it out someday ... maybe when she helps me change Luke's diaper.  heehee!  Tonight, I went to the Cheesecake Factory (YUM!) with some friends for Girls' Night out and had a wonderful time.  Mark got to go to watch the Baylor game on tv with a friend (they won by a landslide, so he was happy, even though it wasn't a very exciting game) and we had the babysitters come over to watch Anna... so I think we all had a great night!  Anna had the undivided attention of twin 15-yr-olds, so I know she had fun :)

Potty Training - Day 2

Yesterday was day 2 of potty training and we had a lot more trips to the bathroom... mostly we didn't make it in the potty, but she would at least tell me and head that way!  It was a fabulous weather day, so we had to go out and play in the sandbox a little bit after nap!!  Notice our fine sandbox attire on potty training day :)
