Lots of cleaning and organizing for the move done yesterday, DH is on shift today so I won't see him. Pretty boring  Its really exciting to know that these are our last boring holidays though, as next year will be lots of fun with baby Ava!

Mine is boring too. Chris is working and we have no where to go. Watching cartoons and eating Easter candy.

Yesterday we dyed eggs and Troy's family dinner, today we did an egg hunt, but had to miss Church because of a snowstorm. Still not sure if we'll be able to make it to my family dinner tonight.

Yesterday we just spent the day with Kennedy. Took her to the park, played around the house, went out for a walk, etc. Last night my mom babysat and DH and I went out to a fancy steakhouse for dinner. We've had a gift card for almost 2 years since we got married, and were just now getting around to using it! My mom stayed over, and MIL (ugh) is coming over today. We're going to grill hamburgers, chicken, etc. and take Kennedy to the pool. She loved her Easter Basket this morning. She got lots of bubble stuff (her current favorite toy) and some other things. I also let her have some Marshmallow Peeps this morning. She wasn't a fan of them, but they were fun to play with. I also got her a little chocolate bunny. We'll see what she thinks of that later~

Well, yesterday I worked a 1/2 day and then spent the rest of the day in bed still trying to get over my little stomach upset. Today I slept in and have remembered to eat twice and later will go see American Reunion with DH.

It was great! We woke up and the kids played with the stuff they got in their Easter baskets, then we went to church which was awesome and now we are driving to my in laws house for an Easter egg hunt!

We had a turkey dinner at my grandparents' summer home yesterday. I was dreading doing that much driving in one day but it went pretty good. One of my sisters and I hid chocolate eggs for DS. He had a blast finding 'ball' and was delighted with the magic furniture that produced more 'ball' when his back was turned. Then we decorated cookies. He stuck his finger in his aunt's decorating job and claimed her cookie...then proceded to lick all the icing off (from where it sat on the table rather than holding it) and ask for more. Needless to say he was good and wired for most of the day.
Today we had a big breakfast and then DH decided to clean the interior of the car while I tilled up the vegetable beds. I threw a pork roast in the oven and we've just ralaxed for the rest of the day.
I just had to share some pics

We went to church this morning but had to leave early because DD was still tired and VERY cranky. I cooked a turkey dinner which we're digesting now and we pretty much just hung out at home together today. It was nice!

Spring cleaning and whatnot earlier this weekend, and then lunch with DH's dad's family (at 2:30pm) and then dinner at my parents (at 5pm). I'm relaxing in front of the tv since I ate wayyyyyy too much!

Yesterday was just a laid back day - I napped with DD and then we ran to Target. I spent the evening getting some cleaning done.
Today DH let me sleep until 11. Then we let DD dig into her Easter goodies, and we did a little egg hunt out front for her. Her first one & she LOVED it and did so good. I came in & started dinner prep, took some things to my friends and then just relaxed while DH played video games & DD watched her Easter movie. We'll be going over to our friends for dinner in a few hours.

W was up puking most of the night Friday and we spent Saturday with him recovering. Today we played with the puzzles from the Easter bunny, and eventually went to the in-laws which was exhausting and I am just glad to be home!
We also spent a fair amount of time trying to name Baby Girl

Good. I am exhausted though. We hosted Easter brunch, but we ended up going to an Easter dinner too since my sis and bil couldn't make brunch. I think it was a bit too much though in one day, so I am really feeling it now!

We went to his Aunts bbq at her house. It was fun until SIL arrived and decided to spew her venom on everyone. By 8PM I, and my girls, were ready to leave. We couldn't take anymore of her poison.

I was sick for most of it, but thankfully I was able to go Easter egg hunting with LO before it got too bad on Saturday morning.

Easter was... ugh. Church was awesome. My family was nice, but my mother was a different story. And I just had a rough night last night all together. Still in lots of pain from the accident I was in, and had to deal with contractions all night from doing too much.

My entire family ended up at the minor med on Good Friday. My husband and daughter both have strep throat. George's case is so severe that he actually needs surgery. My son has a severe case of allergies. I had a bout of low blood sugar and almost passed out. My daughter had mandatory cheer practice. If she missed, she would get kicked off the squad because they have a tournament next month. She wanted to go even though she was weak- bad idea. My husband runs his own business, and he still took service calls. (He services plotters, industrial printers, copiers, etc.)
Saturday was pretty funny. We don't have a sitter in our area, but we needed to shop for Easter baskets. I would point and do sign language to let George know what to get. Then I would hide in another part of the store until he paid and put the stuff in the SUV.
We were well enough in time for Easter, though. We went to our church and then drove an hour to my parents' house. We spent the entire day there, eating and playing at the park.
