Easter

Easter was crazy! Bella got her Easter basket on Friday since Justin had the day off and she saw it early anyway. Friday and Saturday we had Easter services as well so we knew time would be hard to find. Bella and I colored eggs this year and she had a lot of fun! She wanted to keep putting more eggs in the dye cups. She did get to hunt eggs though at her friend Kaitlyn's grandma's house. She had a lot of fun! She loves to eat the marshmellow peeps, just like mom and grandmas! Caleb will be two months old officially on Friday and we are going to take family photos and his two month pics then as well! Caleb wore a tie for Easter and it was super cute! I think I might have to go get him another one for Mother's Day and for his dedication. We got a picture (in unplanned matching outfits) with his friend Corbin who is a month older and is Bella's friend Kailtyn's brother. Bella is growing and talking and singing like crazy! And she definatly has her opinions about what she wants to do! Which of course are not always what we want her to do! We were talking to friends of ours and they use Tabasco sauce to help with the back talk with there daughter and they said it works. So last night was our 1st try with it! Since "no" is her favorite word, she HATED it! She cried and said her mouth was itchy and hot! But hopefully a few days of that and she will learn! (at least a little) :)

Update pics

Caleb is now six weeks old. I would like to say that time has flown by and I can't believe it, but the truth is it's actually been a LONG six weeks! He is a little colicky and has an insane amount of gas that seems to hit him around 2 or 3:00 in the morning and keeps us awake for at least an hour and half while he gets it out. Bella was so easy as a baby. Slept alot, ate every four hours and would go about 6-8 hours at night. She was rarely fussy, unlike Caleb. But we love him and he is cute! I love little boy clothes, although I feel less confident in dressing him in cute clothes than I did with Bella.I guess you can't get lucky twice! :) Oh well! It helps that I don't work but since we have Bella who is a very busy, stubborn 2 1/2 year old who doesn't always take a nap, the days are long and can be a struggle. I have researched so much on his gas and grunting and tried all kinds of things. He actually sleeps in his car seat in out bed! I think though we will put it in his crib since the last two nights he did better in it. Justin bought Caleb a Duke jersey and himself one so they could watch the NCAA tournement together! It was very cute!Easter is around the corner, and I can't beleive it! Once Easter is over we are going to start potty training Bella! Am I crazy to do this with a newborn! We tried once a couple of months ago but I was impaitent being 9 months pregnant and she just wasn't interested, I was tired of cleaning poo and pee up off the carpet and she ran out of underwear in about 3 days. Pull ups were no use what so ever. She didn't think they were any different that diapers. I am going to get her those plastic covers though this time for her underwear so I don't have to clean up as much pee. We shall see! Anyway, we are going to get Calebs 8 week pics done this month and some family pics as well, I will post those ans soon as we do. Well here are some pics of Caleb and Bella and some random other pics!
