Dying eggs and Stetson says

Today we dyed easter eggs. I bought the stuff last Saturday when Stetson and I had a mom/son date to Cody. I should mention while I'm thinking about it that we had a great time. It was fun to be with just him and it was interesting how different/better he behaved w/ just me. I first had a hair appt and Stetson seriously sat like at angel the whole time. After that I went to Albertson's and he was great for that, and then Wal-mart which was the most fun. He's good about staying close to me and me telling him no when he asks to get something. I told him he could pick out a treat for being so good and I later realized I should have narrowed it down becaue he wanted to choose EVERYTHING! :) We ended up getting an egg coloring kit which he hung onto until we got home and has been asking about it almost every day. When I told him today was the day he was so excited!

Kandace was equally excited (note expression on her face)

















Right before Stetson's egg plumetted to the ground.























The other day I told Stetson that I would go outside and play with him. He was sitting by the door waiting for me when I told him "I'm gonna go put my shoes on ok?" Stetson: Well just do it! I don't have all day for you!"


Among other things, I'm so excited that its April 19th and that we're done with winter. I'm anxious for "sunshiny" days, trips to the whale pool, picnics in the park and the smell of sunscreen.

I'm almost 30 weeks prego and getting maybe a tad nervous that it is approaching so quickly. Michael has a friend whose working to get her radiology tech license and needed some practice, so we got another peek at the babe for free and it was fun. The tech knows what we're having and it doesn't bother me a bit. She said she could tell as plain as day, which makes me think its another boy, but we won't know for sure 'til the baby arrives! I love feeling the baby move every day and I've been exporing alternative pain management methods since my epidural with Kandace was such a disappointment last time. I'm only going to do this so many times and I want to experience it to the fullest. We'll see what I say about this later..ha ha. We're excited for a quicky getaway to SLC for Joel's wedding in a couple weeks.


Kandace's favorite thing to say is "Toodah!" (ta-dah) and it makes me so happy every time she says it. She says this every time she gets dressed or does something else by herself that she thinks is worth praise.
