Easter weekend

This weekend was busy and hectic for me, I had a friend go to the hospital on Friday because she was having complications with her pregnancy, and she ended up spending the entire Easter weekend in the hospital-but she delivered her baby on Easter Sunday! So that was really exciting, and now they have a fun story to tell every Easter about what the Easter bunny brought them (a baby boy!). But up until Sunday we were on edge, getting hourly updates from her boyfriend about her health status and progression of the pregnancy. On Saturday, my boyfriend and I dyed Easter eggs with the kids I babysit for, and they got overly enthusiastic about dying the eggs. The older child, Heather, got so excited about the colors that she dropped her egg inside a cup of the dye and held it down with her fingers instead of the egg holder, so of course she ended up with dark purple stained fingers for the next 3 days. The only other funny story that happened to me over the weekend was my mom made us get up early for church, but my sister and I hate waking up early for boring church so we pretend to be asleep til she comes in &forces us to get up. This year, she tricked us &told us church was earlier than it really was, so we got up and got ready and ended up being there almost on time haha. I didn't get to take alot of pictures over the weekend, but here is a picture of the easter eggs my boyfriend and I dyed, and a picture of the baby. Photobucket Photobucket

I enjoyed reading your blog it sounds like you had a lot going on Easter weekend!!! I love babies!! It is so exciting and wonderful that your friend had a baby on Easter! I am not really good with small children so I find it admirable that you were able to help them dye their Easter Eggs. I liked the pictures you put up mostly because that baby is precious and I love the sharks!! Who made the teal egg that said go sharks??? I am a huge fan and I am desperately trying to go to some play off games:)

To Kimberly-I made the sharks egg, and my boyfriend dyed the egg next to it, in another shade of teal. I am a HUGE Sharks fan and I want to go to playoff games too! Haha. We went to a few regular season games but I can't afford the playoff games, I wish I could. Hopefully we match up well against Detroit in round 2..
