Early Easter Fun

This past weekend our neighborhood park had an Easter Egg hunt for the kids. Overall it was lots of fun, and Owen was really excited.

There are a few things that the organization freak in me would have done differently, so maybe if we are still here next year I'll volunteer to help...

I found one mommy
I'm pretty sure Owen was more excited about the pinwheels on the side then the egg hunt.


Afterward there was an opportunity to take pictures with the Easter Bunny. Owen did really well waiting in line and was super excited to see the bunny. Until it came time to take the photo. I think this picture really says it all.

I think being able to play in the park again may have been the highlight of the whole morning. Owen is now able to climb up the steps and go down the slide all by himself without any help. Different than before winter set in. I'm excited and sad all at the same time.




Running around on the playset. He looks SO old to me here.

Last weekend was a blur as we are hurriedly trying to get ready for Baby G #2. But, we still managed to squeeze in some fun building blocks amongst other things.
Owen taking an afternoon snooze in front of the TV while basketball was on. Typical guy.
Owen likes to "instruct" us as to how to do things these days. Here he is giving Daddy a lesson on where leaves come from and where to stand.



Getting closer to my due date, only 6 weeks away. Yikes!!!!

Little bit of this, little bit of that

We had a busy time last weekend beginning to get things organized for baby #2 to come. So, not much fun to report but at least we got some things done.

Owen got a haircut and actually did decently well. I wouldn't expect a repeat performance but I'll take it.

Some recent artwork...

Blowing bubbles for Penny.


One of the things we did was bring up some of the 3T clothes from the basement. Owen still fits in 2T clothes just fine, but I over estimated what size he'd be in this winter and rather than buying a bunch of 2T clothes, I bought 3T. Oh well, at least he'll have some for next winter (hopefully.)

This morning Owen went to get his breakfast and his pants weren't tight enough so they fell right to the floor. Brett and I were both upstairs getting dressed and just heard him saying "Mommy, my pants fell down." When I came down to see what was going on, this is what the scene looked like. It was so funny and cute I just had to get a picture.
This weekend we'll be running more baby errands so I wouldn't expect anything to great in the way of updates but we'll try to come up with something.
