Happy Easter! Happy two month old!


HAPPY EASTER!

We had a great Easter weekend in the sunshine!  Troy had the weekend off of work so we took advantage of our family time together.  Friday we spent the day cleaning up our driveway and yard!  There sure was a lot of dirt and gravel from the winter roads.  The next project is to put all the winter stuff away until next year!  Saturday we went up to the ski hill to get our last ski runs in for the year.  Sunday we had two easter egg hunts for the girls (they have way too many treats) and went to church.  And on Monday we decided last minute to drive to Revelstoke to go swimming at the aquatic center (an 1 1/2 hr drive away) with our new veggie-oil run van!  It was a great weekend!

Praise the Lord for what he has done for us!  Making us clean through his blood.  We are holy and blameless because of him!  All glory to God for his plan of redemption put in place before the foundation of the world!

I decided to try to have a little photoshoot with the girls all in their Easter dresses from Gramma Judy in Thailand.  The pink umbrellas are Grampa Rob's idea! 

It's pretty hard to get three little girls to all smile at the same time!  So whatever they do is what the pictures turn out to be!

Life this past month has been fun and definately has gone by too fast.  Maeve is now two months old and is already well into the 12 pound weight category already.  She's out growing her baby friends the same age as her!  Here are some highlights of the past month:

Rub-a-dub-dub three girls in a tub!  Mommy has to supervise when baby is in the tub and constantly tell Keziah not to wash Maeve's face over and over again!  It's just so fun having a live doll!

Troy's 32nd birthday on March 26 was fun.. especially because he let Makenna and Keziah blow out his candles!

Maeve has been becoming more and more alert and smiley this past month.  She loves smiling at the girls!  Now she's starting to squeal and coo!

This is Maeve at just over a month, still so small.  She is clinging to my shirt with her little fists-- for some reason she thinks she's going to fall when she's naked!

Keziah has been refusing to take her naps in the afternoons and around supper time she gets really irritable because she's so tired.  This is what ends up happening. She falls asleep while playing!  Like on the floor!

This is Makenna making easter eggs for us to decorate the house with!  She loves to make crafts!

We took a blitz trip down to Abbotsford a couple weekends ago to buy our van.  We stayed with Gramma Lil and Papa Stan.  The girls love their great-gramma and papa!

Finally Keziah gives me a great picture!  She adores her little sister and is always trying to pet her head or shove Maeve's soother in her mouth!

I'm enjoying my litte baby!  She's such an easy baby now that she's past her second month!

This picture was taken on Maeve's two month birthday!  Such a cutie!


Last weekend we skipped church and went for a ski day with the family!
Amanda got a free ski pass from our friends and learned how to ski all day long! I got a run with her and took some pictures.. it was tons of fun! Keziah loves the gondola... Maeve sept through her first ride with Sandy.

Here's Makenna racing down the mountain!  "Bye mom!"

And here's Amanda landing a ski jump on her first day!  She'll try anything!

We found a cheap tramp for the girls.. this is before the net was set up.. and this is now their favourite thing to do together.  They can jump for over an hour!  Troy loves to play with them too!

Life is busy and fun... oh and crazy!
