I found these pictures I never posted, but definitely feel they are worth sharing! These are from the mall when the Easter Bunny came to visit. He didn't quite take to him like he did Santa Claus, but he did okay. As you can see, once Rachel Kate left, he wasn't too sure about him!
Anderson and Rachel Kate will be good friends!
One day while I was getting ready, Anderson was kind of crawling around being fussy. Nothing I did seemed to help, so I just let him go. About five minutes later, this is what I found:
Asleep in Daddy's closet!!
We said he must be missing Adam! Spring football will be over soon, Anderson!
Anderson's first Easter Sunday!
I love this picture! Can you see his teeth?!
We had an Easter egg hunt at Nana and Pa's (that is Adam's mom and stepdad)
Adam and Jeff hid the Easter eggs (they really got into it!)
Anderson needed lots of coaching to even pick up the Easter eggs. Maybe next year...
He found other things he preferred doing.
These are just a few of the shots trying to get five children ages four and under to take a picture!
It seems like this picture was taken so long ago...this was what we used after Anderson got too big for the Tummy Tub! He really didn't like taking baths for a while after we stopped using it. He loved that thing so much, but we just couldn't get him clean because he completely filled it up!
We are now using the regular tub and he LOVES bathtime! As you can see, Adam tried dumping every toy he had in that little blowup tub!
Some of you all might know my Grandma Reed has had a bad bout of being in and out of the hospital. This is quite a change for someone who has never been sick! Hopefully she is out for good now, but still has to take it easy. She did break her ankle, so she uses a rolling walker sometimes. I thought it was boost her morale to bring Anderson up for a visit. I mean, how can you not smile just by looking at him?!
Playing with her new chihuaha, Cookie. He loves dogs!
And of course, when Anderson goes to see Grandma Reed, Grandma Hays automatically gets a visit too! Here he is reading his favorite book ever; it's called "Eat!" Dr. Lu gives him books at all his appointments. He loves this one so much, it is all chewed up on the edges from Anderson!
Can you see his big belly hanging over his diaper while reading the "Eat!" book?!
Something else we've been doing with Anderson is putting him on the toilet when he is doing the deed. I mean, it's so obvious! Why not go ahead and let him feel what he's supposed to do? It actually works a lot of the time if we're home and can catch him grunting. :)
Here is a picture with me and two of my best friends from OT school. Amanda lives in Denver now, but we are still close! She came to Arkansas, so we had to get together. We don't always get our routine Starbucks trip in now that Anderson is here, but we do what we can!
Anderson, Jennifer, Amanda, Julie after a late night visit :)
Okay, this is what I get for waiting so long between posting! I've got so many pictures and events to post about and I have to go "backwards" and put them in order! So hang out, there are about to be several more posts to bring us up to speed!
