Getting ready for Graham

Well, it has begun. We put off purchasing anything for the baby until we found out he was a he. Since then Hunter has been right in the middle of picking out stuff for the baby. He helped select the crib bedding and approved the paint color for the nursery. When I get in new boxes of clothes (which I largely purchase off Ebay) he helps me go through it all and tells me which outfits Graham will like the best. We have also installed the mobile on the crib, which came with a remote control. Hunter has decided that it will be his job to activate the mobile and make the baby stop crying. (Because you know that is all it takes to stop a baby from crying!) If you stop by the house, Hunter will be glad to show you how it works! :-)

Carter is excited about the baby too, but I think he has a better understanding about how this baby is going to impact his life. He keeps telling Hunter "It will be a LONG time before the baby gets here". I'm almost 24 weeks - Graham will be here before we know it!

Cookie Exchange

Easter 2009

The Easter Bunny was good to the boys this year...even though we dyed the eggs at 8PM the night before. All the "egg hunts" were with plastic eggs this year, which the kids prefer, due to the candy/prizes inside. We went to our new church on Easter morning and the kids made it through the "grown-up" service, so it has been a great day so far. Now, on to lunch at Grandma Jackie's house for Easter dinner!

Our special visitor....

Do I have a story to tell you! Last night Hunter ask if he could go out to the van and look for his Nintendo DS. I let him go and then made sure he locked the door as he came in. This morning, as I stepped outside to take some things to the car before we left for school/work, I noticed the sliding door on the van was wide open. I started griping to the boys "Good grief, now the battery is going to be dead....AAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!" They came running out the door to find an "American Bulldog" curled up in Carter's seat. After I got my wits about me, I sent them back in and tried to talk the dog out of the car. Then I tried to entice him out with a hot dog. He just stared at me. Then I got a stick, opened up all the doors and yelled at him to try to scare him out. He just ran behind the seat and hid in the back. When I got really agressive he started quivering his lip like he was going to growl at me. He was scared of me and I of him. All the while, I was documenting th...
