Baking for Easter!

I couldn't just stop at dying Easter eggs, I had to bake cookies and cupcakes! David loves to bake with me and Justin was never one for holiday spirit, but he is coming around! David and Justin rolled out the dough and cut the shapes. While I prepared the dough and batter!



David decorated the cookies and cupcakes while I did the icing. For some reason the sprinkles would not stick to the icing. I had to press the sprinkles into the icing to make them stay on. They aren't perfect looking which bothers me, but you can't be Martha Stewart with a three year old helping! I am getting better at being more relaxed when David helps!

Dying Easter Eggs

Easter egg dying was fun. David was a big help and amazingly he didn't stain his clothes. I bought a kit for like $1.00 and we only had about three colors to work with. No orange and the pink and purple were pretty much the same color. I guess you get what you pay for. The kit was a glitter kit, but it didn't turn out so well! The glitter just clumped on parts of the egg and the stick'ems that you dip the egg in first took the color off. Too much trouble, too much of a bother!

Hunting for eggs around town!

David and I went to an Easter Egg Hunt With my friend Rachel and her boys. We started in the Town Square and had a map that gave us clues to what stores the Easter eggs were hidden. There were a few bars that had Easter eggs hidden, is this a pub crawl? David had fun getting candy, seeing the Easter Bunny and hanging with "The Boys!"

I had to get a new license plate and was so excited when I saw what it had on it!

20 weeks!

Had my 20 week ultrasound today. Everything checked out well, according to the perinatologist! He is growing well and tomorrow I will have 19 weeks until he is due. Yes I said HE! It is official that it is a boy! So glad that I read my ultrasounds right when I scanned myself at work! David has been calling the baby Patrick for a month now and if this baby was a girl, she might have been named Patrick! Now we are on the countdown!

Happy St. Patty's Day! Justin and I took the boys to the park and enjoyed the beautiful weather. The boys loved the slide and the swings. Can hardly get them off the swings! After we got home my dad came over and brought the boys green cupcakes. I don't think they enjoy them though!

The weather in Kansas!

On Wednesday the weather was beautiful about 70 degrees. We played outside and enjoyed the weather, but by Saturday morning we got 2-4 inches of powdered snow! I am so ready for spring to get here to stay! I hope this will be our last snow until next winter.
