Easter

Carter was so excited to see the Easter Bunny but freaked out when the time came.  Lets face it this is a pretty freaky bunny.  Almost as freaky as my hair in this picture.  I got it cut two days later.... oh well.  Carter totally dug Easter this year.  I was telling him the story of Jesus and why we really have Easter one night last week and he fell asleep... I guess I need pictures or a book or somthing to help me out :)  Pete and Carter dyed eggs and we had Amanda and Robyn for dinner... should have taken a picture of that but spaced it with preparing for dinner.... All in all it was a good day besides the quick hospital trip to see if Carter broke his leg when he fell of the tramp and wouldn't walk on it.  It probably is not broken they told us after XRays....

Carter... My best friend.

I tell Carter every day that he is my best friend... it's true.  So the other day I had to put him in time out and afterwards he came up to me all upset and said "But I thought I was your best friend Mom."  Oh that tugged on my heart a bit.  Carter has been busy helping Pete and I finish his play room . Here he is "helping" Pete sand the mud off the drywall.  He helped me paint today.  He is also potty training and so far we haven't had any poop accidents which I am greatful for.  I can handle pee just not poop.  He also has a VERY active imagination and loves to be a pirate.  We will make a pirate ship and I make a treasure chest with treats for him to find somewhere in the house.  Man I love him. 

Livy AKA "Little Watkins"

I like to call Olivia "Little Watkins" because she looks so much like her Grandma Watkins and Pete.  She is just like her daddy in temperment too... very calm and happy.  She has been "talking for weeks and loves to be sitting up at all times if possible.  She is always trying to sit up on her own and is really close to being able to get up there on her own but staying upright is not possible by herself yet.  She is seriously my pride and joy.  I have heard people call other people sweet before but I personally have never thought anyone was sweet before until I had Livy.  She is the best baby ever.
