Easter

This Easter was a lot of fun for Britton. The babies didn't know what was going on this year so they didn't get to partake in some of the events. We started out dying eggs after the babies went to bed so we could get some good uninterrupted time in.

Mycayla had fun coloring eggs even if she wouldn't admit it


Britton had a blast coloring eggs. 36 eggs wasn't enough for him



Saturday we went to the Lauritzen Botanical Gardens for the Easter Egg hunt and I was able to get a lot of really cute pictures of all the boys.



Everett really liked the pretty flowers


Everett was really excited to get his picture taken and he was bouncing all over the place

Then he saw the camera and wanted to play with it

Emmett is a big ham and always has a big smile when the camera comes out




Emerson wasn't sure at first if he wanted his picture taken so he talked to Dad about it first

Then he didn't want to smile

Finally he decided he better smile if he wanted Mom to stop taking pictures

I then attempted to take pictures with all my boys. It was really hard to get a good one, with three squirmy babies and a crazy 3 year old

It was a little easier without Britton

Britton did not want to try and get a picture with Dad, so we only got the babies with Dad


They have a cute Koi pond there and Britton loved watching the fish

And he wanted a picture with the orange fish

Look at that one mom

And this is the fish he was talking about

And then he was done taking pictures


I'm happy it was a beautiful day that we could enjoy.

Britton had no problem getting eggs this year. He was all about seeing how many he could get



Emmett even got to get in on the fun


Unfortunately, Everett and Emerson were sleeping so they didn't get to enjoy the hunt


Britton then had to check to see what he got


Easter morning we took the kids to brunch. Mathew and Krista came with us as well.
The babies got to sit in high chairs at the restaraunt like big boys and enjoy some of the food. They really liked to be able to sit up there and eat with us. It seems like we'll have to do that a lot more. It's hard for Chris and I to even eat when we're trying to feed three babies and make sure that Britton is eating too. Oh well we didn't want to eat anyways

The Easter bunny brought all the kids Easter baskets. Chris and I were bad parents and didn't get pictures of Britton or Mycayla with their Easter basket. Britton got a baseball glove and ball, a Spiderman puzzle, a book and some candy. Mycayla got a scary movie, bubbles, a bouncy ball and a few treats. We better do a better job with the pictures next year

The babies each got an Easter basket with a sippy cup, book and puffs. They had fun tearing it apart

Emerson


Emerson saw that sippy cup and knew exactly what to do with it

Everett just threw it around and attempted to put it in his mouth

and Emmett didn't want to have anything to do with it. I didn't get a picture of him being mad when it was on his tray

We then headed outside where the Easter bunny had hidden more eggs


We hung out in the front yard playing and enjoying the day



I'm pretty sure Emerson and Emmett are up to something

And they're trying to get Everett in on it too


Since it was such a nice day we decided to get the Choo choo wagon out and see if the babies are big enough for it yet.

They still lean a bit and slide down and we have to go really slow. It won't be too much longer, especially with some more practice.


I made sure to get pictures of the boys and their cute sweaters made by Grandma Linda. They look so cute on them!

Britton wanted to get a picture too, which is sooo surprising
