We had a GREAT Easter weekend! Okay, okay, yes the kids were green nosed and Ben was sick for most of Saturday but...it was a great weekend. "WHY?" You might ask in the midst of all the sickness and tired children? Because we did nothing! Absolutely Nothing!!! Nothing but stay home and enjoy being a family. The kids are more cuddly when they are not feeling well so I got lots of "on the couch watching a movie" time with a boy on either side (Joelle does not buy in to the whole couch potato movie thing yet).
And quite truthfully even though we went through a box or two of tissues and a couple rolls of toilet paper trying to stem the tide - the kids were in wonderful moods. They played and played and played and when they napped they REALLY napped so we did not have any upset kids in the evenings. So it was the best possible situation with sick kids.
The weekend started on Thursday afternoon (Carter's gives a half day before a holiday) and ended on Monday night (I took Monday off for Ben's 3rd birthday - pictures to come later).
I even found some time to work on Ben's "first steps" video (featured below). He started walking at 14 months and Janice captured some GREAT video. I hope you enjoy it as much as we do (Janice laughs every time I play it). Make sure to let us know what you think.
