Happy Easter!









We all had a great Easter weekend. Well, I'm not sure about Jeremy--he spent it working. Only 9 more days until his defense--eeck! Sarah had so much fun at the Egg Hunt on Saturday, except during the group photo ;-) I finally wrote down one of our car conversations this morning:
Sarah: See birdie!
Me: Do you see a bird?
Sarah: See bunny!
Me: Oh, you saw a bunny?
Sarah: Brought treats!
Me: The Easter Bunny brought you treats?
Sarah: Put in mouth.
Me: He brought you treats for your mouth?
Sarah: Eat it?

Enjoy the pics and video! As you will be able to tell, Sarah gets very excited when she sees Play Dough :-)

Spring Break!



I think I could get used to a permanent Spring Break :-) Sarah, like I seem to say in all of my recent entries, is so much fun these days (and so funny!). I keep meaning to write down some of our conversations and post them, but I keep forgetting them by the time I get to a piece of paper. Her new favorite thing is to read books all by herself. She used to want someone to read to her, but now she wants to do it by herself. She usually will go get a book for herself, start reading it, then realize that I need a book too, go get me a book, and make sure that I sit right by her and read my book. She's a very particular little girl. Everything has to be just in it's place, and you don't want to hear her scream when she gets food stuck to her finger and can't wipe it off! I guess she's just beginning to realize that she can tell people what to do and they just might do it. Sarah spent the first half of her Spring Break week at school--I decided that I would get a "break" the first half of the week to catch up on chores around the house and maybe some LMU work, and Sarah will get her "break" the second half of the week. Today was her last day at school and I went to eat lunch with her there and took her home early, something I never get to do when I'm at work :-)

Jeremy and I dropped Sarah off at Mimi and Pawpaw's house on Saturday morning, and we went to Columbia, SC, for his best friend's wedding. We had a great "date" evening and enjoyed visiting with some old friends. If Jeremy agrees, I'll post the video later of him performing the chicken dance for Sarah! The chicken dance is one of her new favorite songs...

We're looking forward to our family Easter Egg Hunt this Saturday, and I'm sure I'll have some cute pictures to post afterwards!
