Easter Fun

Dirty-faced little boy playing in the tire swing....SERIOUS POTTY TRAINING BEGINS TODAY, PRAY FOR ME!!!

We had a wonderful Easter this year! Here's a picture of the kids at Jonah's Easter party at school! Silly kids! We did Resurrection Eggs, played a rousing game of "He's Alive" and had an Easter Egg Hunt too! What a day!

We went to my mom and Dad's for the day on Good Friday. We had an Easter Egg hunt with cousins, ate lots of yummy food, and rode on the new Go-cart. Could it get any better than that?
Caleb has the whole Easter Egg Hunt figured out! He liked to snack along the way too.
Hannah enjoyed watching the action and chewing on things that she got from her brothers.

Here's the famous Go-cart. All the boys had so much fun with it. Including the big boys (I mean adults). I rode on it for a little while - did go-carts always shake you to death? I really don't remember that as a kid, but I think perspective has changed.

This is Jonah's first baseball game. He is #10 on the Pirates this year. Here he is in outfield. He gets a little bored in the outfield, because the balls don't really come out there too much at this age. He finds ways to occupy himself by drawing pictures in the sand with his feet and dancing around. Jonah is like his Daddy, he likes a little quicker moving things. I think it will be good for him to learn patience though. He did a great job and even got the last ball of the game and threw it in to the pitcher. Way to go Jonah!

Here he is batting. They do 3 coach pitches and then do 2 off of the tee if they haven't hit it. Jonah actually got a triple and a double both times he went up to bat! I think that's pretty good for a four year old. He even got 2 runs! We were proud that he had fun! When he first went up to bat I yelled out "Go Jonah"! He turned around and said, "Thanks Mom - when's the real game start!"

Here he is running home from 3rd base. Once when he was on 2nd base waiting for a hitter, he got a little distracted and starting chasing a little piece of paper that was blowing around...Then he got back on track. It's a little hard to stay focused at this age!
Here's Hannah in her cute little Easter dress given to me by my friend Brooke when she was first born. It was so beautiful on her! She looks a little awkward in this picture, but that's what you get when she can't sit up by herself yet! What a big girl - she's now 6 months old today! She just started eating baby food (sweet potatoes) and she goes a mile a minute when you hold her. It won't be long before she's getting into everything!

HAPPY EASTER!
