Easter at Bumpa and Nana's

My parent's had both sides of the family over on Sat. The girls had a lot of fun playing with everyone. Macy had to take a nap right in the middle of it, so I never got a nice picture of them together with their hair done and cute outfits, oh well! The video is of Madison dancing in the big mirror, of course the dancing before the video was more funny. Macy put her coat on all by herself (she's saying "cheese" as I take the picture)! I didn't take any pictures during the party, but it was so nice to see everyone again.

First day of break...golfing!

Our first say of break was spent cleaning, playing outside, and having lots of fun!!!! Our friend dropped of some toddler golf clubs for us to use with Madison. Jesse couldn't wait to let her try them out and show her how they work. Madison even took them out today on her own! Of course, we have to watch more carefully with these real clubs, versus her plastic ones...they can do much more damage!!! Macy even tried them out today, too!

Visiting friends

A couple of Saturdays ago, we visited our friends, the Schaaf's. The kids had so much fun playing together, especially in Braden's bed. I can't believe Joy got all 3 of them to smile and look at the camera all at once! We always say that Braden is Macy's boyfriend...don't they look cute together!!!!

Egg Hunt

Our friends had their annual Easter Egg Hunt on Sat. I was a couple minutes behind Jesse and the girls and was amazed to find 10 or more kids gathered around the table quietly making crafts. I didn't even think anyone was down there, it was so quiet! After the Easter bunny called the house to say he had left eggs for the kids to "hunt," the loudness began!

It was so fun to watch the girls this year...Madison especially. She was much more into it than last year. Plus, the weather was wonderful, so the Easter bunny left the eggs outside! Macy found just a couple (notice the piggy tails...she's been letting me put them in, and keeping them in). After finding a couple, Macy enjoyed the playground and other toys in the yard. Madison was amazed to open the egg and find candy! She started showing everyone! Of course, we've had to hear her ask for candy non-stop since. What a great day!

20 week pic

This is a picture at 20 weeks. I'll be 21 weeks on Sunday! This baby is still very active, kicking a lot, even Daddy has felt it a couple of times!

Baby #3

We are officially half way through our third pregnancy today! We had our 20 week ultrasound last Weds., and were in for a crazy ride. This baby would not stop moving the 45 minutes we were in there! The technician kept commenting on how active the baby was, and almost gave up getting the heartrate because the baby wouldn't slow down for 10 seconds. Finally at the very end, the baby stayed still long enough for the heartrate to be read: 158. A little lower than the 170's it has been. We go in for another appt. tomorrow, so we'll see what the heartrate comes out as then. We didn't find out what it is, but we're assuming it's another girl. I'm carrying the same and feeling the same as I did the last two pregnancies (plus we didn't notice anything "extra" in the pictures). We got some good pictures. I only posted two. One shows the baby, and the other one shows the baby sucking its thumb. Another finger is straight up and we were joking that it could be the middle finger...but we hope its just the pointer! One picture that I didn't post because you need to take a good look at it, shows the baby with its mouth open, like it's laughing! We keep thinking its trying to tell us that Macy is not the naughty one, that we need to wait until this one comes. Let's just say we already have our hands full, and we must open ours palms even wider :)

Funny pictures

These are some pictures that my friend Amy had taken with her son's digital camera while we were in the Dells. It's amazing how fun a kids digital camera can be! Notice the similarity between Daddy and Macy...uncanny!
