This is for Daddy all the way in China……

Easter Sunday

 

There is a song by Casting Crowns that I love this year and I feel that it sums up Easter very well.

Living, He loved me
Dying, He saved me
Buried, He carried my sins far away
Rising, He justified freely forever
One day He’s coming
Oh glorious day, oh glorious day

We are really trying to get the girls to understand the true meaning of the day and it was so sweet to hear Emma explain to me this year that her drawing from Sunday showed an empty tomb and that Jesus is alive and he lives in your heart!  Amen Emma. 

After church we had a busy day with family and celebrated Papi’s 60th birthday. 

Easter Baskets

 

I am the first to admit that I can go a little overboard with the girls baskets but I just love how they turn out…..

Saturday Egg Hunt

 

We did an egg hunt with the neighbors on Saturday.   Even though it was chilly the kids had fun.  

April Showers…

 

I guess with April being a typically rainy month one can never be too careful…..

P.S if you look in the bottom right corner you can get a peek at baby #3.   The belly is getting bigger and the girls are so excited for July. 

Somebody is a big girl!!!!!

 

Check out Norah in undies!   Norah decided last weekend that she had enough of diapers and has been doing great on the potty.    She is getting to be so big and Mommy is thrilled that she will have a short amount of time without a kiddo in diapers. 

Swimming and Gymnastics

 

We have started a few springtime activities again.   The girls are swimming on Mondays and Emma has gymnastics on Thursdays.   It is so much fun to watch these girls learning new things each week.

Norah likes that she can wear Emma’s suit

Fast forward to Thursday………

Norah watching her sister.  She is so excited to be 4 and do this too! 

I love this smile.
