April 2011

Almost caught up . . .

April was a crazy but fun month! Life with three kids is everything that you hear. It has its moments of complete craziness, you are constantly tired, you often feel overwhelmed but it also has its moments of pure joy. Having a baby in the house again is such a different feeling- we are all completely in love with him and cannot help but smile when we see him.


April was a lot of this- just snuggling and loving are little guy Ryan got his first bath. He hated the sponge bath but now he loves taking baths and it completely relaxes him.







Life with three kids who love their daddy :)


Our friend had an Easter Egg Dyeing Party and it was a lot of fun. It was kind of hard to hold Ryan while helping two kids dye eggs but we loved it and the treats were delicious.



Just a sweet picture of sleeping Ryan

Another cute picture

Abigale loves holding Ryan and is very comfortable and confident. She is going to be such a great mommy!




We went to another Easter Egg Hunt at the church with some friends. This is the girls getting ready to leave with their cute baskets from Grandma Tanner.


Sisters!

It was cute because they had an egg hunt for two year olds and younger in the primary room and then one for the rest of the kids throughout the church. Everyone brought 10 eggs per child and were allowed to find 10 eggs so it was perfect. This is Lydia finding eggs.



The older kids playing "Easter Bunny Says" while patiently waiting their turn


The girls with their eggs. I think Lydia snuck all of her candy before the day was over and Abigale still has some in her room :)

So precious! My parents came in town for Easter weekend and my mom brought a cotton candy cupcake mix which were not the greatest tasting but Abigale sure had fun making them!






Dyeing Easter Eggs We went to dinner at the Brick Oven and they had a man making balloon characters. Abigale got a unicorn and Lydis wanted a bunny. So fun



Easter morning! Lydia was so excited! Here she is showing off her new dress thanks to my sister (she would wear this dress everyday if she could but I have to hide it from her) and some presents from the Easter bunny
Playing catch with her new ball!
I love this picture. She is modeling her new sunglasses and wearing them like Nana
She ate her whole box of peeps in about 10 minutes!

Ryan turned 1 month old at the end of April! He is so sweet and easy going. He still sleeps most of the day and gets up once at night to eat. He loves his sisters and whenever he gets fussy we put on music or just stick a binky in his mouth and he calms right down. He still doesnt really know how to suck it but he loves it in his mouth. Cute guy!

I basically love your kids. There are no ifs, ands or buts about it.
