Adventures in baby growing!: 48 weeks: Spring Break, Easter, and Miles turns 11 months

We had a busy week! But a fun one too. We finished up our trip to Grenada, then had the rest of Spring Break at home with Easter thrown in there too. :)

Miles didn't like crawling on the wood floor at my parents' so he kept doing this cute froggy thing.

Gorgeous sunrise with Harley the horse and Mt. Shasta in the background.

On our way home Tuesday morning, we stopped at Tractor Supply in Yreka to see their baby chicks, but they were sold out too! So sad. The kids did have fun on the utility carts though.

A necessary stop for lunch. We all shared a milkshake (with three straws).

Ruby has been into dressing fancy (like the Fancy Nancy books), so she separated out all of her fancy clothes. She is so cute.

I got this Easter bunting idea from an art blog and gave the kids a mission of making pretty papers while I took a quick shower. They did so great!

It turned out so pretty.

Apparently Miles cries a lot? Hahahahaha

He has been pushing this scooter toy! Getting ready to walk soon-ish.

We made donuts from scratch. It was way fun.

And they were so delicious.

He has been liking to drink water from his sippy cup.

Thursday night Ruby and I went on a date to Target to try on clothes. She LOVED it.

Little girl wedges! She picked out a skirt and some sandals.

Sleeping little guy.

Donuts for breakfast. Reid didn't want to get his fingers sticky.

On Friday we went to the zoo! We were waiting for our friends the Clines, so we played with the snakes in the gift shop.

And then this happened.... oh Reid...

I can't believe I got a good picture with them all looking! We had lots of fun. Aiden and Ruby are both in Kindergarten, and Addison just turned 3.

Riding the lion.

Miles had lots of fun.

Reid wanted me to take a picture of him in front of this sign for some reason. Haha

Ruby and Aiden have always been best buds!

Dyeing easter eggs! I actually broke the most eggs out of everyone, followed by Ruby. Reid didn't break any.

Can you guess which ones are his?

Miles loves reading his little board books.

Pretty girl at church Good Friday.

We went to Village Baptist Easter Egg hunt on Saturday.

Reid waiting for the preschool egg hunt.

We got into the area at the back, so there wasn't much left.

He had fun though!

Ruby found her friend Kalie from preschool last year.

Right before the hunt some adults were joking that there was a diamond ring in a golden egg somewhere out there, so Ruby spent the whole time looking for it! Hahaha. Poor girl. So we got way less candy than last year, which was okay with me.

We've been loving crackers with brie and fig jam lately. So good! Ruby was taste testing them to see which one she liked best.

Bath time!

They got up bright and early on Easter morning and hunted for their baskets.

Reid was so excited about his Lightning McQueen legos.

Super hot!!!

There it is. She really wanted this shamrock purse from Target.

And Miles found his basked under a chair!

They hunted for the rest of their eggs containing bunny grahams and Resurrection Eggs. They really liked those, hearing the Easter story with the different objects.

Then I made some delicious desserts for later, lemon meringue pie and fallen chocolate cake. Miles wanted some.

They love their chocolate bunnies.

At church they had all these fun bouncy house things! That's Reid coming down backward. The kids loved it.

They had class for Miles and Reid, and Ruby joined us in church.

Then we went to Del and Patty's for the afternoon. Reid and Andy had fun building his new Lego set.

Family photo! It's so hard to get one of everyone looking.

I love these three SO much.

They love their baby brother.

And on Easter Miles turned 11 months old! I can't believe it's one month until his birthday already. We are going to start sleep training him soon, he has been sleeping in our bed since before Christmas, he wakes up so much when he's not. So it's time for us to do something drastic. We have a whole plan, so hopefully it will work fine.

We did a little egg hunt for the kids.

So fun.

And Miles gets into all of the cupboards, kind of like Ruby did at his age.

We had such a busy day on Easter. After the Pullens' house, we rode the Max to the Moda Center to watch the Blazers. Ruby won a free ticket and cheap ones for us.
