Man those couches look super dirty ha ha. Gotta love kids and microfiber couches. 

The Easter Bunny left the kids each a basket with some outside toys and crafts as well as a few hidden eggs throughout the apartment.

Connor loved finding all the Orange eggs (his fav. color)

Kaylee found all the yellow eggs

Ashlynn/Dad found the pink eggs ;D

Painting Easter Eggs!!!!

We participated in A LOT of Easter activities. But we also talked a lot about Christ and his Resurrection. The kids each knew the importance of Easter and how it represents Christ being resurrected. It was a busy but a Happy Easter!

Meeting one of the nurses at work (Britt) dressed up in an Easter Bunny outfit.

The kids then went and did yet another Easter Egg Hunt! They had sooo many eggs that the kids filled up their buckets and then stopped looking. But they of course had a blast!

Checking out the prizes (stamps, stickers, jump rope) the kids collected off the grass and in the eggs.

Ashlynn eying the colorful eggs.

 

April 1st the kids got some Easter mail from Grandma Tenney. The love getting mail!

We then went to Kangaroo Zoo with Brinlee, Everette, and Beckham.

 For dinner we had an April Fool's dinner. I set up their dinner in little plates with little cups and tiny pieces of food. BJ added food coloring to their water. We got a funny video of Kaylee drinking her "juice" ha ha. Connor was as happy as could be eating his dinner. He was so excited that he had finished his meal that he even asked for more! He didn't seem to notice it was all supposed to be a joke. 

After a few tears when she first drank her "juice" she started what we call "Craughing" (Crying/laughing). She caught on that it was a joke and ran in the bathroom to pull her own prank. She spilled some water and told me that she peed on the floor. She was laughing soo hard she couldn't even get the words out. :D

Many people ask me how the transition from 2 to 3 kids has been....and the answer is HORRIBLE.. Ha ha jk, but seriously it has been quite the transition for me. I remember thinking while I was pregnant with Ashlynn "My kids are older, and it is just one more kid". I seriously thought it was going to be no big deal. 

Connor and Kaylee were sitting next to each other and kept fighting, so Connor got put in the back of the car for half the day. It was pure torture lol

We borrowed this swing from my good friend Ashley. Ashlynn loves it!! In those times that I need more hands- this is where Ashlynn goes. :D

Usually by the end of the night BJ and I watch a little tv and then crash. But one night I convinced BJ to play a game with me. We then ended up playing this game "takeneko" a few more times at night...until BJ kept beating me ha ha He is just too good to play with ;)

The first time I took all three kids grocery shopping

I am learning that the more easy going I am, the kinder and easier it is to do things with all the kids. Hence, Kaylee and Connor measuring goldfish in the picture below. They ended up measuring everything they could get their hands on. I let them push the mini cart while I pushed the stroller. I probably said "Don't run into me with that cart" a million times ha ha. Man those things hurt when they run into the back of your legs. I know, because despite telling them not to do it- it happens several times a trip.

The trip went ok. I forgot many things on the list and almost lost Connor during the trip, but the worst part was trying to carry it upstairs to our apartment. You sometimes don't realize what an amazing blessing it is to have a house for simple things like grocery shopping...until you don't have a house.

We went to a movie as a family and I ran into one of my BEST friends growing up (Brittney Wall) at the theater. As I was putting the kids in the car, I saw my crazy hair in the car window. How embarrassing

Ashlynn making a mess while I was breastfeeding in the car. The other kids went with dad to look in Shopko. Ever since we moved into the apartment and have had Ashlynn, I find myself nursing a lot more in the car than I did with the other kids.

We LOVE going to the Castle Park in Kaysville. The kids favorite is when I chase them and put them in "jail". They have to stay there until someone else touches them so they can get out. Its definitely a lot more difficult to play this with Ashlynn, but once she is a little older I am sure she will love it just as much as Kaylee and Connor.

Kaylee showing off one of her food allergies. We think we know all of her allergies and then she has another reaction that throws us off. Darn allergies.

The kids LOVE to hold Ashlynn's hand or play with her, and they can get her to laugh more than anyone. Sibling love is the best!

LOVE being a mom to these cute little munchkins
