What a Week!

We had a pretty fun week. There were deliveries from the UPS man and mail man with Easter goodies for the whole family.
Zachary opening up his bag from Papi and Grandma Karen!


The weather was somewhat decent so we had playgroup egg hunt. I think Zachary was the oldest kid but only by a little. They all had a blast. We "hid" the eggs in the grass for the under 2 bunch. For the3+ kids we actually hid the eggs on the play structure and behind the big rocks! It was very windy and cold that day so everyone had a runny nose. Ryleigh kept licking her lip trying to catch the boogers!
After the hunt I tried to get a picture but Ryleigh was too excited about her eggs and wouldn't look at the camera.

Also, Brynley has found her hands! Well she found them a while ago, and as you can see in the picture she favors her thumb if it gets anywhere near her mouth! She was napping on our bed one morning and she started fussing so I went in to give her her pacifier and she had already found her thumb! She went back to sleep and woke up 2 hours later!!

Brynn got a puppy and clothes from her Great Grandma Vickie.

Now the big news for the week. Shannon (sister in law and Ryleigh's mom) went into labor here at the house after her doctors appointment last Wednesday. I was timing contractions from 5 mins apart down to 1 minute apart in the 45 minutes that she was here. She barely made to the hospital (30 min away) and delivered little Bailey Dakota 4lb 13oz 4.5 weeks early! She is sooooo cute and tiny!
I just noticed that she is wearing the shirt that she wore to work that day! She didn't have time to change!! I just talked to Shannon and she said that Bailey gained a load of weight over night and is doing well! I got to hold her last night and she felt like holding a ball of blankets! Sooooo tiny!

Also this weekend we had really good weather, and Travis and the kids were playing baseball out back and Travis ask me to take a video of Zach. Enjoy!

Wow! What excitement... I looked at the first pics of Rileigh (sp), and thought, "wow, she is getting sooo big!" Then I read about Baby#2 arriving. How neat for you to get to be a part of it all! So tiny, huh?

Oh, and the Easter loot looks like fun... gotta love the candy overload, eh?!
