Easter 2014

Easter 2014

We had a wonderful Easter celebrating our RISEN savior with our family, church family and friends. Our church had a Thursday night, Friday night, and Sunday Easter service this year; which was amazing! It was a wonderful way to slow down in this busy world we live in and reflect upon what the CROSS really means and represents to me. 

Here is a little snapshot of some of our Easter fun!

 Thanks Aunt Jill for our cute Easter shirt for Party Day

 Goodies from Caleb's Easter Party at Mrs. Kay's House

 Caleb made cute Bunny Bait for his treat to take to his party!

Visiting the Easter Bunny at our church Egg Hunt...LOVED him from far away, but up close his feelings changed

 " I found an egg"

" and another one!"

 This Easter we tried to teach Caleb about Jesus dying on the cross and rising from the dead by reading the Easter story from his little Bible. Not sure how much he really understands, but I do know that he daily says " Jesus ALIVE" and wants to read the story from his Bible.

Health: He is still weighing a little more than 25 pounds. Caleb has a total of 12 teeth. Another great month of good health!

Nutrition: We are drinking about 5 ounces of milk in the morning and at night. We have found a new love of strawberries this month. He is also asking to eat at Chic Fil A all of the time. Whoops...don't know where he gets that request from??? ;)

Sleep: Wonderful Sleeper

Toys:  Sitting in Daddy's Boat has become one of our favorite things to do.  He drives us to the beach each night :)

Skills:   

Recognizing places such as Nanny's House, Chic Fil A, Big Ball Store ( Target) etc. and knowing specific things he wants from these places.

Clothing:   18 month  in pants and 24 months and 2T in shirts. We are in a size 6 or 6 1/2 shoe depending on the brand.  We are still using Pampers and he is still wearing a size 4 in those.

Each day with this wild man is an adventure, but I would not want it to be any other way!! We are having so much fun running wild with our little man, and it makes this teacher mommy look forward to summer even more. Thank you Lord for entrusting us with this precious child. I pray we honor you in all we do!
