Yup..... this is it! He got into my stamp pads, ans decided that they looked good enough to eat! I wish I had a separate room (with a lock!!) to keep my scrapbooking stuff in.... maybe someday... ha ha.

12 Weeks

Another 4 weeks have passed and I am finally over the morning sickness! So far there are slight differences with this pregnancy than when I was pregnant with Gavin and Dylan, so I'm thinking that it just might be a girl. :) But then again I thought Dylan was going to be a girl too, because that pregnancy was so different from Gavin's. I'm not very good at guessing, and I have no instinct when it comes the the gender. I'll just have to be patient and wait another few months before I can really know.

He's growing up!


Dylan has decided that he needs to go potty in the big boy toilet! He's been telling for a while when he's stinky, so I knew it wasn't going to be too much longer before he would decide to do this. The funny part is that I've been putting him on it when he tells me, but he has never actually gone. Well, the other night he told Chris that he needed to potty, and the little stinker did it! He was so happy... I think he just wanted to impress daddy, so he waited! But yesterday he told me, and he pooped! I am so excited!! It's hard to see my little guy growing up, but not having to mess with diapers for a little while will be soooo nice! Of course we still have a lot of work to do before the diapers are completely gone, but they will definitely last longer now.

Our Easter

Easter was really fun this year. It's so neat to see he boys get so excited about the little things. Gavin has also been asking a lot of questions about Jesus, so we've been able to talk about the real meaning of Easter.

We got up, ate cinnamon rolls (mmm....), gave the boys their baskets,

finished getting ready for church. Then we decided to take some pictures before leaving for church. We usually do this out side, but since the weather decided to get all cold on us, we took them inside.

Of course they cooperated in the picture with dad, but not me... oh well, it depicts real life!

After church we went to Chris Grandma Greiving's house and ate lunch and watched the kiddo's hunt eggs. Then it was home to take naps and get things ready to go for my parent's house.

We ate dinner over there and they got to hunt more eggs! We have candy coming out of our ears
Before we hunted the eggs we tried to do a little photo shoot with the kids.. that was a joke! Try getting four kids 3 and under to all sit still next to each other and smile all at the same time! Not easy.. but the pics turned out cute, even though they were far from perfect. Here's a few...




So that was our busy Easter Sunday. It was really tiring, but there were a lot of memories good memories made.

It is APRIL right???

Then how come it's snowing? A week before easter, and it's at most 40* out and snowing. It's not supposed to stick, but I think it's nuts that we can go from 65/70 out to 40 and snowing in just a week!
I must have jinxed us with my last post... I'm no longer posting about this insane weather...

I love Spring

But not when it's only going to be 40 degrees out! So last week we get stuck with rainy, stormy, and down right nasty weather, and now we're going back to cold?! I just put all of our sweaters away! Now I'm probably going to freeze... I guess I'll be fine as long as it doesn't decide to snow. But it is Kansas, so you never do really know.
