Lunch with the Easter Bunny!

My mom and I took the kids to this local event today. The luncheon was held at the armory and there were a variety of activities available for the children. The highlight was seeing the Easter Bunny! After talking about it all morning, Eva was a little shy when it came to seeing the Bunny face to face. She posed for a picture but only with mom and Grandma at her side. Will on the other hand, loved seeing the bunny and was all smiles.

Life as a Family of 4

The past seven weeks have been great ones at our house. We have quickly adjusted to being the parents of two and like our little family of four.

Our new "little man" couldn't be a sweeter baby. Will was quick to smile and shows us his grins and funny faces often. (I did my best to capture them on camera...see below). He is a very happy, content baby. He is a strong little guy and surprised us by rolling from front to back at 2 1/2 weeks. His continued growth has put this on hold recently. He weighed 12 pounds 12 ounces today at just a little over seven weeks! His favorite activities include eating, looking out the window, and "playing" with us.


Eva continues to blossom and is becoming a such a little socialite. We've noticed a big change in her recently. She is beginning to develop friendships with children and gives us detailed updates about her days at school. She likes being a big sister and is a great helper to me during my days at home with the two of them. Eva has a great imagination and can play independently for a long time with her dolls and farm animals. She is learning about peoples jobs and likes to play doctor and lifeguard. She's enjoyed the snow and winter, but like us all, is ready for warm weather. We recently took her to a waterpark for a day of swimming. It was nice to play in suits for a day.
