Happy Easter!
I hope you had a wonderful Easter celebration! We went to an Easter egg hunt on Saturday afternoon and colored eggs that evening. The 3 amigos were kind enough to wake us up way before the alarm went off on Sunday to tell us that the Easter Bunny had been there! After finding all the hidden eggs, we headed to church to celebrate the ressurection of Jesus :) Later, we spent the afternoon with friends. It was a really nice weekend!
I managed to get no good pictures of the kids together this weekend, but that's ok... you can still check them out here. We don't need to talk about how my girlie is wearing Halloween pj's Easter morning or how skinny Jake looks with no shirt on (eek!).
Sadly, the EB is no longer a mystery for McKenna. We decided to put a girlie Bible in her basket this year and without thinking I wrote that it was from "Mom & Dad". She kind of looked at it weird, but said nothing. Apparantly, she asked a few questions too many for Jay so he spilled the beans to her. It made me sad in a way because she did not believe him when he told her that the EB was us and I know that we'll need to explain Santa and the Tooth Fairy soon as well. On one hand, it's nice not to have to perpetuate "the lie" any more, but on the other it means that my little girl is growing up and the magic of childhood is starting to fade. She has been sworn to secrecy so hopefully she won't spoil it for the boys. Oh, and this morning she asked about Santa. Josh was right there (and told her 'Uh, yeah!' in his best "duh" voice) so I told her we'd talk about it later. *sigh* I really thought I'd have more than 24 hours to prepare ME for this!!
In other news, my sewing machine saw some action this weekend! It's been a while, but I have big plans for Rosie over the next few weeks. Today I finished up some sweet baby girl clothes for a shower I'm going to tonight and I've got plans to make a few things for my kids next. I've decided I need to either cut into some of this fabric I've got or sell it off. Sweet Baby Girl Things may be viewed here!
