Easter

Sorry for my absence lately. I am currently on the take it easy and rest instructions from the doctor. I have been having contractions and it might be from overdoing it a little. This last weekend was no different, but now I am done with overdoing it. I am trying to lay in bed and relax.

This weekend, Mason had several Easter Egg hunts. He had one at school, we had a neighborhood one, the Easter bunny came Sunday and then he did one with family. Too many eggs in my opinion. Next year, we may cut out one or two of them. Mason loves candy and now he knows he has some in the house (hidden).

I was curious if Mason would understand Easter egg hunting this year. Last year, he thought we were going to take the eggs from him so he grabbed a hand full and wouldn’t put them down. This year, he totally got it. It was fun to watch his excitement during each hunt.

Look Mom! Eggs!! He would shake each one before putting them into his basket. Our neighborhood hosted an egg hunt on Saturday. My parents were up, which was wonderful, and they took pictures while I enjoyed really watching Mason hunt the eggs. Our neighbor, who Mason loves, helped him find the proper number and ran with him so I didn’t have to chase after him. Our neighbor is such a sweet girl. I cannot wait until she is a little older. I will totally let her babysit Mason and Addison. In fact, we have a great selection of future babysitters in our neighborhood. All the neighbors were shocked to see I was pregnant, but they made my day when they thought I was only 5 months pregnant. Sweet people! Nana, Papaw look at the eggs I got. He just thought this was so fun. I should add that Mason is wearing his rain boots because Daddy and our friend were placing new mulch on this day and Mason wants to be the biggest helper. Normally I would put him in a super adorable Easter outfit for hunting, but not when we want to play in the dirt.
