Hiccup - 24.5 weeks

I was a few days late getting my 24 week belly picture so here is the 24.5 week picture.

Two days later I had my glucose test and a checkup.  Hiccup's heartbeat was 150 bpm.  Everything seems to be going well.

Dinosaurs at the Museum

Aunt Nini had the day off so we took the boys to see the dinosaurs at the museum.

YIKES!

  Thanks for sharing your day off with us Nini!

Cute Cousins

Baby Claire and Nash

Nash absolutely adores his cousin Claire.  Today he said to me, "Mom, I will never have a tea party with a girl."  I said to him, "What about Baby Claire?  What if she asked you pretty please to have a tea party with her?"  He sighed and said, "I would because she is so adorable.  But then I would want her to play transformers and monster trucks with me."  I sent this in an email to Uncle Will and Aunt Daniele.  Daniele responded saying that Claire would invite Optimus Prime and Bumblebee if Nash would have a tea party with her.  I told this to Nash and he got a big smile on his face.  He said, "OK, send her a yes card that I will have a tea party with her."  So cute!

Felices Pascuas!

We celebrated Easter on Saturday with my family.  My sister decided we should have a taco bar for dinner which eventually turned the whole celebration into a Mexican Easter, complete with sombreros and margaritas!

We started the day off at the Park Board Easter Egg Hunt.

First Zoo Visit of the Season

The boys and I decided to sneak over to the zoo since Nolan woke up early from his nap.  It was fun but I realized that morning trips to the zoo are a little better than afternoon trips.  All of the animal food was gone so we didn't get to feed any animals which is normally a highlight for the boys.  We still had fun though.

All Aboard!

Gone Fishin'

We met our friends the Diercks at their family pond on a beautiful Sunday afternoon to soak up the sun and try to catch a few fish.  I accomplished the first part by getting a pretty ridiculous looking sunburn but I didn't catch a single fish.  Neither did Jason.  The boys helped the others reel in a couple so they got in on some action.  Mostly they enjoyed riding laps around the pond on the four wheeler and gators.  It was so much fun!
