What have we been doing?

Well the answer as Jeannette so nicely pointed out is - Not Blogging! That's right, feeling overworked and stressed out means that any free time I have at home is not in front of the computer! Sorry to all who have missed the updates and pics. Just how I am. So to recap since the beginning of April - Here goes:

At the beginning of April, Caden & I treked over to Seattle for my friend Emily's baby shower. Wanted to adventure over to support my lady and now fellow mama. (since we went, Emily has had her baby now and she is about 3 weeks old....) Caden & I went to the Pike place market and got our picture with the pig (Rosie I think her name is) You need to touch it for good luck. We also saw my Aunt Sue & Uncle Greg. Caden really dazzled them with his wiggles moves.
While visiting Emily, Caden liked to say hi baby to Emily's belly. It was pretty cute. Caden taught Emily and Derek about Hot Potato, and thankfully for me, they get the Disney chanel, so when Caden woke up really early (6am) we could stay quiet so everyone else could sleep. Life with a 2 year old, not dull at all!
Okay, move ahead to Easter... We stayed the night at my sister's house so the cousin's could have an easter egg hunt together in the morning. We were worried all the kids would wake up early. We were worried for nothing. Charlie, my nephew, who was the most excited about Easter and the Easter Bunny, was the hardest one to wake up! Once they figured out they had presents and there were eggs to find, there was no stopping them. Even little Annie got into it. Notice their awesome pants! That's right, they hunt in their jammies!


One of the things Caden loves to do when we are at my sister's is dress up and put various hats on his head and boots too! Anything that is a hat, makes him a cowboy. More often than not he wears the spiderman easter basket when that is available. Here he is in one of Charlie's cowboy hats, and rain boots.



Okay, now we are up to date... Kind of. Our camera battery is unpredictable, so we haven't been taking many pictures. This weekend we went to the Park with my sister's family. We had a picnic and enjoyed the sun. Don't worry, we were wearing sunscreen!



On a side note, Justin, Jeannette and I all did bloomsday this year. That could be a post in itself, but if I don't get there... I finished 1:36, Justin was 1:22 and Jeannette was 1:28 I think. We all did awesome. We trained for 7 weeks, so you would hope so, but never can tell.
We are headed to Orcas this weekend so I plan to take pictures and post them. Let's hope that works out. :)
