Happy Easter!!

I wish I could post cute pictures of all my kiddos dressed in their Sunday best...BUT, Anna had an eye infection!!!!!!!!!! So, instead of getting Anna all snazzed up for church yesterday morning, me and the boys went to church and Rodney stayed home with our little pink eyed princess.

It all started Saturday with a runny eye. Thankfully I already had some drops to get her started and it is all but completely better today. It is just a tiny bit red. She still has a pretty nasty nose, so I don't know if it was actually "pink eye" or just got infected from the eye rubbing after her rubbing her yucky nose....toddlers, they are nasty little creatures.

Since Anna doesn't have any inhibitions about wiping her nose wherever, we decided that it might be best to not have her around all the kids at church just in case it was pink eye. So she missed out on the church egg hunt, grandma's hunt and nanny's hunt :-( Since my kids are the only kids hunting at Rodney's parents (Asa just isn't ready for that yet), the hunt has been postponed until Anna can participate. So I will have some pics later.

The boys had a great time yesterday and the sugar is flowing freely!! Last night at 9:30 I was still prying candy from their sticky little fingers. Parker and Anna have begged for candy since they got out of bed this morning. How do you tell a 4 year old that he should eat Coc@ Peebles or a P*p Tart instead of bunny shaped marshmallows or jellybeans? I bet the sugar content isn't that much different.

Nothing new to report on the TA wait...we are just waiting. I don't expect anything for a few more weeks anyway. It will all work out as it should even if I freak out just a little during the meantime ;-)

Sending love & hugs to Elli,
Rodney, Marcy, Carter, Jacob, Parker & Anna Mei
