This little guy was all smiles. I think I snapped about 100 pics and he was smiling in ALL of them. I should have been taking a video instead because the toothless smile doesn't do justice to the giggle fest that was happening! Man, I do love this stage! The one when they're sleeping through the night, on a good napping schedule, eating well and just plain happy. Ah, mommy bliss!
Now enter my "threenager"
(I got that word from a friend and it's GENIUS)
But the good news is she sure does that her little brother!
We kicked off this Spring season with an Easter Egg hunt at Daniel's work. I thought it was really neat that they do this for the employee's and their families! They had the hunt split up into age groups so Norah was with other kids 0-3 years old and she had a blast! She came away with a lot of candy that may or may not have disappeared over night (oops).
Each Holiday every year get more and more fun as we plan for the kids. As we were prepping Norah this year about Easter she didn't seem to get it but I think this year was pretty memorable so she should know what's coming for next year! Here are the kiddo's baskets...
Norah got some little activities to kick off Spring...sidewalk chalk, bubbles, fun little trinkets and of course candy. And again, I ate most of it.
Hamilton got some new onesies since he's busting out of his old ones, soft chewy books, and other little teething toys.
We did something new this year Easter morning. I thought it would be fun to have a trail of eggs from Norah's room to where her Easter basket was. We might just have to keep this tradition going. It was pretty darn cute. Take a look...
She had such a fun time opening each egg and seeing what was inside!!!
H wasn't as thrilled. But you get the idea:)
Only a few hours later Rachel, Scott and the girls came over to watch General Conference. My niece Maddy was there too from BYU! General Conference is a worldwide broadcast of messages from our church leaders. It's always a fun time as we lay around and eat ourselves silly while being fed spiritually as well. After the first session we had an Easter egg hunt for the kiddos and they thought it was so cool getting eggs filled with candies and rings and necklaces. Next year I need to figure out a way to fit a hot wheel in an egg for Hamilton lol.
