Eggsn' Things

Decorating eggs with cousins to help!
Cleaning up afterwards.
Discovering a very well hidden egg.

Loving his Easter finds!

So we have had a tough week. Chase has been a champ but he just doesn't feel good so we have been trying to get him as comfortable and happy as possible. We are going to have some bad habits to break him of. We have let him sleep in our bed all week which has been our number one no no since day one-- our sleep is just too important but this week we made an acception and it is going to be really interesting to see how we get him to go back to his lonely bed. We also have been putting up with every whine and request which is understandable but I have a feeling he may be getting used to it. Nonetheless-- life goes on and so we were lucky enough to have Chase start to be feeling somewhat better yesterday. We gave him motrin instead of the stronger prescription pain meds and it seemed to cut out the tiredness and whineyness-- so we followed through with the decorating of the eggs (with the help of Griffin and Caleb) and this morning we saw that the Easter Bunny had hidden the eggs for him. He found his basket filled with a few chocolate easter eggs and a Buzz Lightyear kite-- I am sure the Easter bunny would have left more candy such as the classic jelly beans but he remembered Chase still needed to eat softer things.



I hope you all have a happy easter. Things seem to be looking up over here-- slowly but surely we are getting through. I am just grateful for Chase's health and that all is well. I am known for quoting things I see on Oprah and the other day she had a fanily on that had just discovered their daughter had cancer and their whole lives were changed. It was so sad but it mad me realize how lucky I am that tonsils are the worst of it. We are really blessed and I thank my Heavenly Father every day! I am grateful for his life and for his sacrifice in death for me and my family. This is a great time to remember that sacrifice. Happy Easter everyone.
