HAPPY EASTER!!


This was quite the week! I dealt with one of the most irritating allergic reactions a person can have-HIVES. I have never had allergies before and I still am not sure what caused them but I had them for an entire week and I am still not sure that they are totally gone. Poor Jaxson had to listen to me complain about them non stop! They were horrible and they spread to my arms, legs, back, stomach and my head! I ended up going to the doctor and he put me on some medication, but it took forever to really start working! The more I would itch them the bigger they would get and then they would start to spread more! Why do I get these weird things?! Last week was really a huge blur after dealing with the hives. However, we did head to Rochester this weekend for Easter and had a great time! Saturday we took Jaxson to "Horton hears a Who." It was really cute. Jaxson had a good time playing Thomas the Train with grandpa and dying Easter eggs with grandma and Katie. Vada was a turkey when it came to bed time--until we finally brought her in bed with us! Then of course she fell right to sleep~what a stinker! Easter morning Jaxson woke up and found out that the Easter bunny hid eggs for him to find all over the house. With monies in them! We went to church and then ate brunch at church. Every Easter the youth from the church do a fundraiser and provide an all you can eat brunch-it is delicious! After brunch we packed up the crew and drove back up to the cities to Grandma Vicky and Grandpa Steve's house. We got there just in time to see Uncle Jim and Auntie Amber, Becky, Great grandma and grandpa and Uncle TJ. Vada slept the whole car ride up so she was all smiles for everyone! Jaxson has been loving all the CANDY! I think we are going to have to hide it :) We were excited to see Uncle Jim and Auntie Amber~she is due in 4 weeks with a little girl! We can't wait to meet little Ella Ann! Vada is starting to be a lot more curious. She wants to grab everything and wants to be aware of what is going on around her. She is starting to eat a lot more during the day so we may try a little more cereal this week. Presten gave it to her over the weekend and she was not to sure about it:) It so fun to watch her grow!

Happy Easter Everyone!! We are looking forward to the warmer weather this week!

Here is a little video of Jaxson playing with Vada last week. I had tried to put Vada to bed earlier, but he told me that I could not put her to bed because he was playing with her! As you can tell she was a little fussy so he finally agreed that it was time to put her to bed! :)

My co-worker said you are like Martha Stewart with 2 children! I told her I could never have kids cause I would never measure up! Hives and everything! I am amazed!
