Coloring Easter Eggs

Saturday before Easter we fished and then colored eggs after dinner. This was Jocelyn's first time coloring eggs (we forgot last year!) and they both loved it. Jocelyn didn't bother with the egg dipper spoon things - she just went in with both hands and moved the eggs from color to color - it actually worked and her eggs were beautiful somehow :) Noah was, of course, very precise and organized with her eggs. :) 

Above are Jocelyn's eggs....below are Noahs :)


After the eggs were all colored they went into the hot tub to try to get some of the dye off of their hands - it took off some thankfully - they love that hot tub :)

Fishing on Easter weekend...

they wasted NO time - it was off to the creek to fish.

I'm not sure.

awesome Moo


It was the one and only fish caught that day - but Noah would have sat there for hours waiting for another bite :) More pictures of Easter weekend to come...

27 weeks

It's been awhile, and I still need to take a belly pic to post with this, but I had to post our newest ultrasound shots from yesterday. I had a "low-lying placenta" that would have made a c-section necessary had it not moved, so we waited 7 weeks and they rechecked the placement and, thankfully, that placenta went above and beyond - 12 cm away of the required 1.3! It was SO fun to see the baby at this ultrasound - I've never had an ultrasound that far along and the baby looks so cute already! With more fat on him or her now, they have cute cheeks and Adam and I really think the baby already resembles Jocelyn :) We'll see!
Here are the pictures from yesterday -

I'll post a belly pic soon! I'm huge. There's your warning.
Sidenote: HAPPY BIRTHDAY, KARA! We're headed out to breakfast with Kara in a couple hours and then to the zoo for the day! I cannot believe my youngest sister is 20. What the freak.

Happy Easter

We had a great Easter - here's a family photo. I have more to come but I wanted to get this one posted while I could. How cute are these girls???

23 weeks

Time keeps ticking away - 23 weeks now and things are going well. Someone guessed that I was 4 or 5 months today so that made me feel like I must not be as huge as I feel. I think once we're into warmer weather I have more clothes that will fit, it won't be as big of a deal - it's just the darn jeans that make me want to boycott clothes.
Baby is still kicking a lot, sometimes feeling like they're doing flips in there. Nothing new to report!

22 weeks!

The weeks are going by pretty quickly - highlights for the baby this week:
-Baby is about 11 inches long
-weighs about a pound
-kicks a lot in the evening - and is kicking right now :)
