Happy Easter!

We had a really nice Easter weekend! On Easter morning Josh got to see what the Easter bunny left him and find a few eggs that were hidden around the front room. Later on in the day he got to go on an Easter Egg hunt the Grammy Easter bunny sent. He was quite excited.
Josh was quite thrilled with his new Thomas the train he's wanted for several weeks. He's been playing with it non stop since he got it. Connor was content to play with Josh's tractor. I think he gets that from Grandpa Glen! Over the past month he mastered the art of rolling all over the place. He starts at one end of the room and continues to roll until he gets to the other end of the room. He's figured out how to move around to get anything he wants to get into. The past few days we've noticed he is starting to scootch and not just roll!
Josh had so much fun coloring Easter eggs. I thought it was pretty funny when he couldn't wash all the dye off his fingers since he hates having them dirty so much!
Our little preschool Easter bunnies. Preschool normally consists of Josh and his cousins Jordan and Carley and we take turns teaching. They have really enjoyed their little preschool. I've started babysitting two kids twice a week, so they got to join in the fun.
Gary made a cute Easter bunny too!
Over the weekend, Josh had fun cruising around with a friend.
Align CenterMeanwhile, Connor was inside being tortured. He does not want to eat cereal whether I mix it with water, formula, or my milk. He does not want to take a bottle whether it is formula or my milk. He was not interested in baby food either. I even tried feeding him some of my milk in a spoon to see what would happen and he didn't appreciate that either. He wants my milk straight from me and nothing else. I'm not sure how I'm going to convince him to eat something other than his fingers. At his six month check up he weighed in at a whopping 13.3 pounds and was 25.2 inches long. He's a light weight for his age, so I'm hoping to convince him sometime soon that he likes to eat something other than me!
Gary got the brakes on the car fixed this weekend and he had lots of help!
I finally got the walker out of the basement and Connor loves it, though you can't tell from the picture. Josh likes to push him around in it. He looks so grown up sitting up in it.
We woke up to snow outside Easter morning and it has been snowing off and on ever since. Josh and Sydney both love playing in the snow, but we're ready for warmer weather so Connor can play outside too!
