Chill'n before the walk!

We participated in the Oklahoma City Heart walk to support our good friends Adam, Faith and their precious son, Gavin who was born with a heart defect. Besides being one of the cutest most adorable kids on the planet, he is a true fighter. He has been through so much in just the first 18 months of his life but God continues to find ways to bless him and his amazing parents.

We had a great time at the walk and then went to a park for lunch. It was a nice family day!

First T-Ball Game

Some things never change

A week later everyone wore their Easter duds to church. Silly me...I thought I could get a picture of my three children, happily TOGETHER. Looking back things just don't seem to go well for an Easter picture. Baylor is rarely interested in posing with the other two and Easter is no exception.

Easter 2008, 4 years old: I tried forcing Baylor into the picture but still "no go".

Easter 2007, Age 3: "Get them away from me!" ( I did get a studio picture this year.)
Easter 2006, Age 2: "These beads are pretty, I don't even notice my mommy is taking my picture."
Easter 2005, Age 18 months: Mommy learned her lesson and went for the studio picture!

Easter 2004, Age 7 months: The Easter Pic troubles begin. This actually makes me laugh now. The second shot turned out a little better.

I prayed Delaney would wake up fever free Sunday morning, but she had a very rough night. She was awake coughing every three hours and at 4:00 a.m., she had a fever of 102. At that point, I realized we would not get to go to church and to all of our Easter activities. Delaney was crushed when I told her we wouldn't go to church, Nana's, or Aunt Laura's. Actually, she threw quite the fit. After loading her system with Tylenol and Ibuprofen, her fever finally broke around 10 that morning, so we went to Nana's for a little egg hunt and tried to minimize her exposure to others.

Spring Break Continued

Thursday, Baylor was finally fever free for over 24 hours, and doing better so we met our good friends, Monica, Katie and Emily at the zoo. It was very crowded. We waited till the end to ride the train, which was a mistake because the line was extremely long. All of the kids opted to ride the carousel instead, which did not make Baylor happy. I have promised that I would let him ride the train first thing next time. Overall, it was a beautiful day for the zoo.

Friday, the boys went with Daddy for hair cuts, and Delaney went with mommy for a hair cut. She had been begging for months to get her hair cut again. I finally caved and said she could keep it short for the summer. She looks very grown up when it's left down.
Delaney & Jax finally caught Baylor's crud on Friday. So far, Jax is handling it pretty well. His asthma is bothering him so we had to break out the nebulizer for some breathing treatments. This is a little easier than when they were babies. Delaney has been running fever and has a cough. We are praying she gets well for Easter. Saturday, full of Ibuprofen, but as promised we ventured to see the Easter Bunny. On the way, the kids speculated as to how the Easter bunny got to Wal-mart (drove, landed on the roof etc.). Jax, "I think he hopped!"
Delaney, "I think that might be a costume!"

The only way I can get Baylor to get in a picture with the other two!
On the way home, we stopped by to see an Easter Gift from Nana, a swing set to play on at her house.
