Happy Easter Bunny!

Easter day was a lot of fun. The Easter Bunny made it to our house and left Boston an Easter basket with clothes, puzzles, coloring book, and the Memory game. He also hid Easter Eggs in our living room. When Boston woke up he was so excited to see if the Easter Bunny came. He ran into the living room and was so shocked and excited to see his basket. He then began the hunt. He loved looking for the eggs. After he was done he opened all of them to see what was inside. Lately Boston has had the fascination with money. To Boston money is coins not bills. Luckily for him the Easter Bunny put some money in some of the eggs and some candy. He had to count all of his money and of course line them up. He also had a separate pile for his candy.
We had church to go to so we got cleaned up and went with Diane. It was a great testimony meeting. We kept reminding Boston what Easter was all about. Right now he's just interested in the eggs. After church we went to Grandma and Grandpa Valdez' for dinner. Boston was so happy to know that the Easter Bunny had gone there too and left more eggs for Boston to find. Of course, he enjoyed the whole thing! Even after all the eggs were found Boston would keep looking to find more. It took him a while to realize that was it. The Easter bunny left him more money and candy and a new red wagon and soccer ball. Boston was in heaven today. He liked telling everyone "Happy Easter Bunny". We all sure had fun watching Boston get excited every time he found an egg. We hope you all had a wonderful Easter.

The hunt is on

We all sure had fun this Easter. This year has been great with all the holidays because Boston is to that age where he is starting to understand and gets excited. He wasn't quite sure who the Easter Bunny was for a while but he kept singing "Here comes Peter Cottontail", especially when he was at Grandpa and Grandma Valdez'. They have a bouncing rabbit that sings it and of course he loves that toy. On Saturday morning we took Boston and his aunt Lauren to Deseret Peak for the Easter Egg Hunt. It was complete craziness. We got there 30 minutes early because we were told you need to get there early and mark your spot. I could not believe how many people were already there. Well going early for a 2 year old is not good. Boston was not too happy he had to wait to go get all the toys. We finally got him calmed down and then the mad dash began. I swear it started at 11:00 and ended at 11:01. Everything was gone! You had to be quick! Boston did get some good toys though. He passed up all the candy and went for the big stuff. He got a soccer ball, nerf football, a fire engine, and some other toys. Once we were done Boston was ready to go play on the big fire engine and slide down the big blow-up slide so Grandpa Rich and Cody took the kids while Diane and I waited for the drawing to see if Boston would win a bike or wagon. In the end I think Boston was feeling a bit overwhelmed so we got him and Lauren home.

The funny things they do

One day I was at home with Boston and he was being very quiet. You know what that means... they are usually doing something bad. I called Boston's name and he yelled "what". I heard him in his room so I went in to check on him. He had taken his pajamas off and put his belt on his head was just playing with his toys. I could not quit laughing. I just had to share this picture with everyone.
On other news, my pregnancy is going great. I feel like with this one I am popping out a lot earlier though. Has any of you felt that way with the second baby? Clothes don't fit and I just feel huge already and I'm only 10 weeks. Oh well, we are still so excited that soon we'll have a new baby in the house. Boston still seems excited. He loves to wear his big brother shirt and tell everyone he's going to be a big brother. Hopefully that excitement will last when the baby is here and it doesn't leave. I haven't been sick at all and I'm not as tired as I was in the beginning. I'm starting to get my energy back so that is good. My sister keeps telling me that we are going to have a girl. I don't feel any different from when I was pregnant with Boston so we'll see in about 8 weeks or so. We're really not caring what it is, we just want them healthy.
