Geema gave Derek a book of Elmo songs and a little piano to play them on. He loves it. He loves to sing along and play along with the little lights that show you what button to push. The book is a big hit!
Auntie Alli the horsey is getting lots of exercise. She is going to be very tired when she goes home after Derek wears her out.
We had a great Easter egg hunt. We were all in our jammies which was fun. The boys still can't go to church so it was nice to just have a relaxing morning. Derek loved finding the candy. He tried eating a malted milk egg but he wasn't so sure of the taste. We had a great Easter lunch of ham, sweet potatos, and squash- all made by Mike. Even Alex the dog had her own easter egg hunt- to find milkbones. It was a great family day.
Will and Nate were the cheering section for a great game of Settlers. (Do you see the gorgeous blankets Auntie Alli made them)? Daddy won by one turn over Mommy (not that I am bitter or anything). We are loving having Auntie Alli here. I am not sure who is more tired Auntie Alli or Derek. Auntie Alli has already been a horsy, played tag, and read lots and lots of books. She has also been a great help with the babies. We have had a great first day with her.
Will and Nate are just sitting on the couch waiting... for Auntie Alli to come. Auntie Alli is coming tonight to spend a week with us. We are very excited to see her. As Derek says (several times a day)... Auntie Alli coming soon!
