Sarah is 4 months old

Above you can see Sarah in a cute cloth diaper. I put her in cloth for a few days last week, and may try to do it a few days a week this summer. Anyway, it's the most recent picture of her that I have!

Today Sarah is 4 months old, and at the pediatrician visit this morning we found that she weighs 13 pounds 13 ounces (50th percentile) and is 25.5 inches long (90th percentile).

Who Made You?

Here is a video of Jack answering the first three questions of the children's catechism (coached by Hannah).

Happy Easter!

Today was Sarah's first Easter. She didn't get any candy so she had to resort to sucking her fist.

Jack decided to pop a piece of candy in his mouth right before I took this picture, but it's a good one of Hannah!

Being goofballs

On a quest

Have I mentioned how difficult it is to get a good picture of all of us? We tried to take a family picture of the five of us, but they didn't come out. This is the best one of the kids and me, if you can believe it.

After church, the kids had another egg hunt at Grammy and Papa's house.

Egg Hunt

This morning we went to an Easter egg hunt at church. The kids enjoyed making a stained glass window craft, singing some songs, and hearing a short message, and then went outside to hunt eggs. Sadly the "feels like" temperature this morning was in the 20s (!!!) so the cute spring outfits I had picked out had to give way to warmer clothes. Jack hadn't done an egg hunt before, but immediately grasped the point and shouted "AY-GGS" while filling his basket with an astonishing number before the big kids even knew what hit them. That is the bonus to being so close to the ground, I suppose.
Hannah also found quite a stash. As you can see, she has officially grown out of her winter coat! Yikes!

Littlest

I love that Sarah can wear a bow in her hair already!!!

Usually a very happy baby!

In the above picture, Sarah looks bummed because she won't be able to hold an Easter basket to hunt for eggs. Maybe next year.

Seriously!?!?!? You don't have a basket for ME???

Easter Art

My mom was appalled that we hadn't colored Easter eggs (I was out of food coloring), so I decided we would paint eggs on paper instead. Hannah and Jack each have their own set of watercolor paints, and had a ball making pretty designs. Jack insisted his mug of water, which was intended for dipping his brush, was "mah TEA" and sure enough when he declared he was "ah done" he proceeded to gulp it down, paint residue and all! Gag me! That is why I use non-toxic art supplies around here!

He's after us

I think it's kind of funny that one of Jack's first sentences was, "I 'na get yoo!" (I'm gonna get you) Usually that's accompanied by roaring. Yeah, he's all boy.
