Visit with Jim and Pilar

Our friends Jim and Pilar recently moved to Tampa. We enjoyed a long weekend with them.

Easter Sunday 2009

It was raining today, so the church wasn't able to have their Easter egg hunt. They provided bags of eggs and candy for the kids. Adele has never had so much sugar in her life. She has been so hyper today!

We were flying solo. Adam had to work at the fire station. We went with Dave and Bethany to church, and then had a nice Mediterranean meal with Dave's parents. Adele was good for the first 30-40 minutes of the service, then starting crying over a bag of animal crackers. Normally this wouldn't bother me, but it was during a prayer and I felt really bad for the people around us. So ... we took a break and went to the refreshment section of the church. It was pretty impressive. Adele especially like the poppy seed muffins. In this picture she's working on her second muffin.

Easter Egg Hunt 2009

Adele attended her first ever Easter egg hunt. Thanks Kat and Alan for hosting the party. We had a great time!

Eye-et's Visit

Adele's favorite word lately is Eye-et (Violet). We babysat Violet while Bethany hosted a baby shower. The girls were playing so well together until they started fighting over a yellow flower headband. They both wanted it saying, "Mine, mine, mine" (yeah ... not loving this stage). We only have one of those, so of course it was the hot item. We have three bunny ears headbands, but that's not nearly as fun. I quickly put the yellow one away and all was well. Next was curtain hide and seek.

OH NO!

We were at the zoo recently and Adele fell out of her stroller. It was terrible. The worst thing ever. I was pushing the stroller and she wasn't buckled in. We were playing a game with Adam where Adele would lean out of her stroller to try and touch him on the legs (kind of like got you last type thing). What a bad idea! Why didn't I have her buckled in? Well ... I was sick to my stomach for about 3 hours after her accident. I kept looking at her swollen lips and nose and feeling very sad. Luckily, she's healing well.
