Yep, that is exactly what it has been around here. Busy but good. We have all been healthy and have spent our days working and playing hard, the best way in my opinion! Easter was lots of fun with several Easter Egg Hunts and time spent with great friends and family. We went to Pole Green Park's Easter Egg Hunt Extravaganza and Lucas really had a blast playing with Scarlett while the rest of us enjoyed watching their excitement. Easter was low key at home but nice to visit with Grandpa and Ne-Ne. Easter weekend was a blast celebrating Scarlett's 3rd birthday at the Jump Zone, a huge room full of GIANT inflatables to bounce and play on and big slides to go down, they showed no fear for the most part, especially after the daddy's showed them the way!So much fun for kids, wish they would have had those things when we were little :) Yet another egg hunt for the little man... and he caught on real quick that the candy inside the egg was the best part!...He hunted with chocolate running down his chin!
That week we got to have a mommy son day at the circus with great friends Shannon and Scarlett. Since these two are best buds and new big siblings we thought it was the perfect way to show them just how special they are to us. It was really the first fun thing just Lucas and I have got to do together since I went on bedrest back in October, very overdue. We had a ball..of course the added sugar of a sno cone slurried with popcorn (yummy?)helped with the missed nap time that afternoon ;) I myself love to watch the acrobats and all of the exciting circus performers, it was a great time capped off with some outside playtime while we waited for the ridiculous traffic jam- fine with us, it was beautiful outside! I think the rest of the month has been busy with cakes for mommy which has been a blessing. I am really enjoying it and finding ways to work it into the girls daily schedule. What doesn't get done during the day I do in the evenings once Lucas is asleep and they are napping. Being a full time momma is much harder than working a full time job but so rewarding, I wouldn't trade it for the world and I'm very thankful to get this opportunity. It is the one job I knew that I always wanted growing up, just like my momma!!! ;) The kids are all great, growing like weeds and keeping us on our toes. Lucas always has a comment that cracks us up..literally on a daily basis..like the other day when he told me he was gonna give me a kiss, he quickly followed that with "psych!!!" ;) Peyton and Kayleigh are so sweet. They give the biggest grins and giggles. Both are chatting up a storm and have very distinct little voices. Kayleigh is so soft and really sounds out her tones..Ahh, ohh, oohhh at all different pitches as she "practices talking" and smiling as she boosts her little confidence with each sound. Then there is Peyton who squeals with delight and smiles after she hears herself- we think it sounds reminiscent of a pterodactyl ;) They too are doing great! Here are a few pics. Not sure why some won't rotate correctly but I can't see to figure it out! I will be back with more soon :)
This is our way at trying to stay in touch with family and friends as we go about living our crazy, wonderful, ever changing, extremely blessed-life! We are loving every minute of being mommy and daddy to sweet 22 month old Lucas and looking forward to the new chapter God has in store for us- Twins!
