we're ready for spring




Here are a few quick pictures of Noah this past Easter. The Easter bunny made just a quick visit here, in fact... Noah had more fun being the Easter bunny for Ben than anything else. I got him a new tricycle, which doesn't come in the mail for another week or so, and Ben came home with a new hat and a few treats. Noah and I created an Easter egg hunt for Ben that night about 9pm... Noah loved to hide the Easter eggs and then find them again. We did do the traditional Easter egg hunt at the supermarket and at grandma's house, so he had plenty of candy. I was impressed that he would even go up and shake the easter bunny's hand.

not much else to write about. Ben is finishing up his last weekend in Chicago, then starting next week will be working out of Salt Lake. We continue to be dissapointed every morning that we wake up and there is snow on the ground.. will it ever stop. Our newest thing we like to do as a family is go to the neighborhood park and have a picnic. Noah is all about packing a peanut butter and jam sandwich, ants on a log, chips, and grapes. Last Monday we all went while Ben was home, and we had lots of fun kicking his soccer ball around, playing on the playground and just enjoying the sunshine and good weather. We're really looking forward to spring.

Tonight I picked up a few things for the baby. I'm getting really excited to finish up this last month of being pregnant, but also am not looking forward to the recovery of delivery. ..but you can't be pregnant forever, that would be horrible... just getting bigger and bigger. May is a good time to have a baby and I'm glad that we'll be able to get out and play outside with the kids..

sorry no pictures of Ben's trip to Florida.. Ben didn't take the camera with him to Florida, so now I have to get them from my parents who snapped all the photos.. they'll be coming shortly. He had a fabulous time, though. The space shuttle launch is a really cool thing to be apart of.

We are ready for spring too! I'm sorry about the snow... that part I don't miss about Logan. Your picnic sounds so fun! Also, is anyone giving you a shower (or already has)? If not, LET ME KNOW and I'll do it. You need some cute girly clothes!

Hey! I'm so excited I found your blog!! I can't believe you are due in May! I don't think I have even seen you since you have been pregnant! That's so sad! Noah is getting so big! Him and Simon for sure need to play sometime! They would have a blast!

I'm down for a cousins lunch! I just need advance notice to get work off. As for Bre I used to play Bunco with her. She is really good friends with my sister in law Hayley. She is one of the nicest people I know!
