Easter 2012

This Easter it was so fun to see Hunter begin to put the pieces together of Christ and the Gospel Story. We purchased "Resurrection Eggs" from our church and Hunter loved opening them up and finding what was inside. We told him the story of Jesus Christ as he opened the eggs each time. I hope it began to lay some foundation for Hunter to think about Christ.

We participated in the campus Easter Egg Hunt-- Hunter did MUCH better this year as he searched for eggs! ;) He found his 12 in about 2 minutes! So fun! Then he colored a little bit and enjoyed some candy.





Easter Sunday we went to church and then went out to brunch with a young family we met at a local playground. Then we went home and rested for a little bit before heading to Courtney's annual Easter celebration. There were more kids there this year which was fun for Hunter. Plus the weather was absolutely gorgeous and we were able to be outside the whole time. It was great fun.

Verdict: gas

Today was rough.

Hunter slept well last night, but woke up so fussy. He was crying so hard all morning. Every time I tried to put him down he would cry soooo hard. Usually, he is very pleasant and okay with being set in his swing or on his boppy to watch me, but today, the second I put him down he would scream.

I thought he was just fussy. Nothing I did helped! I learned something from my wise cousin today.

Yes, we had an extra special treat tonight! Time with family! My dad's cousin, Margaret, and her husband, Adam, and their children, Lily and Wyatt, came over for dinner! They live in DC and came to the Beach for vacation. It was sooo fun to see them. I loved introducing Hunter to more family!

Hunter was asleep when they got here. When he woke up, he very quickly became fussy again. Margaret to the rescue! :) She knew how to hold him to help his little tummy. Turns out he had a TON of gas. Poor guy. She held him with pressure on his belly and walked around with him. He didn't cry and he was able to get rid of a lot of gas. He has felt so much better ever since then!

I am so thankful for Margaret's help and advice. And it was so wonderful to be around family. Once again, I have no photos. But Margaret took some, so I will add them when I get them! :)
