Catching Up

Despite the unseasonably cool weather, we had a lovely Easter weekend. Saturday was sunny, but a tad on the chilly side. Still, it didn't stop the kids from having fun at the church egg hunt. Easter Sunday was rainy (all day) and very cold. I felt like a bad mom for making Sarah wear her sandals with her dress, but any other shoe would have looked really silly. So, yes, I let fashion trump warmth. Despite the gross weather, it was an awesome morning worshiping at church. Even though I much prefer contemporary worship, I couldn't help but grin from ear to ear when we sang the traditional "Jesus Christ is Risen Today" with the trumpets blaring at the contemporary service.



April 17th was Andrew's 2nd birthday. We met my parents for breakfast and play at McDonald's and we ate out as a family for dinner. On Saturday we had a very low-key gathering at our house to celebrate. On his birthday I wanted to see how cute he would look in his new underwear. I caught him at just the right time and he did a number 2 on the potty. He is showing some good signs that he is getting close to the right time to potty train. I need to let him mature just a little bit more and I need to mentally gear up to take the diapers away.
