Easter

We had a great Easter weekend. On Friday afternoon my friend Annie and I put on egg coloring and cookie decorating party for the neighborhood kids. It was a lot fun.

 

 

 

On Saturday we had a neighborhood Easter egg hunt.

 

 

 

She was really good at it. I didn't have to help her.

 

Jac, Brooks and Ava

 

The stash (not sure why shes making a grumpy face)

 

Sienna wanted to help :)

 

 

After the hunt we walked about 30 feet to the next yard for our friend Daxton's first birthday party (didn't take any pics).

 

Later we went to the stake center for a musical production of The Lamb of God. It was really good. It really put me in the Easter spirit. The singers were very talented.

 

Sunday morning came and the Easter bunny left fun things for the girls.

Matching dresses, new shoes, and a basket full of goodies for Ava. (Next year Sienna)

 

 

 

It was tough getting a good picture of them together.

I love them.

 

With the weekend full of fun activity's we didn't forget to remember the real meaning of Easter. After church Tanner and I watch Elder Hollands talk from General Conference "None were with him". It made me feel so wonderful and grateful for our Savior and what the atonement means to me. When you get that wonderful feeling there is nothing else you can do than to get on your knees and thank your Heavenly Father for giving up his perfect son for me and my family.

 

I hope you all had a wonderful Easter! 

 

 

Hard time

I'm not gonna lie, I do not like the way things are going right now. Its tough. Sienna is a very difficult baby. She cries...a lot. It seems like the only time shes not crying is when she is taking a nap but even then its so hard to get her to fall asleep. I'm very emotional...crying a lot. Lucky Tanner. I'm so sick. This pregnancy has been really tough. I thought I was over the "morning sickness" but it just comes back all the time. Its an all day event. I had great pregnancy's with Ava and Sienna so this is all new to me. I'm tired...all time. I don't remember being this tired with the other two. I have no energy which puts me in a depression funk. Tanner has been staying at the school a lot later because he has big tests coming up that he has to study for. He's bummed because he doesn't think he will do well on an Anatomy test on Wednesday. I was a nanny for 3 children but I told the mom I can't do it anymore. Not proud that I did that. We will see when I start feeling better if I'm able to watch them again. Some days are fine, other days I wish I was the little kid. It seemed so easy for my mom. Its weird to me that I am the mom. Do my kids get that same feeling about me as I did about my mom? That "everything is great because I have my mom, the safety net" feeling? I don't know if they do. I miss that feeling. Blah sorry this is so depressing. I know we chose to have 3 kids, 2 years into school and I wouldn't change it but it does come with its hard times.
