4 weeks already???

I started last week with great intentions of updating the blog with up-to-date photos of Gretchen and our growing boy Jackson. On Tuesday I even specifically took 3 week old pictures of Gretchen to document her wide-awake-ness and growth. I finally uploaded these pictures one week later! She is still just as cute, I promise! During last week a tummy bug whalloped our family and I think (fingers crossed) it has passed. This is the type of wild card that will keep life interesting.



Gretchen telling me that the photo session is boring, she has better things to do!

Before he got sick, Jackson got a quick haircut. You can see how shaggy it was getting in the back and sides. we didn't take too much off -- he has started wearing baseball caps when he leaves the house and it is so cute when a tuft of blonde hair peeks out. But his hair is cleaned up now and less mullet-like.

We also braved an egg hunt on Saturday. Chris had to work so it was just me with the kids. Jackson got 1 egg, they sent all the children 4 and under at once so there was a lot of competition and we had a pumpkin seat handicap!

It was also a little chilly so I didn't bother putting Gretchen on the bunny's lap. This was the best picture I got of Jackson with all the confusion, but he loved the day, he really didn't want to go to the car and leave the bunny. I think he is really going to enjoy the Easter Bunny and receiving a basket Easter morning this year. Our plan is to plant some flowers and work on the yard -- let's hope the weather cooperates!
