Time to Paint

One of the girls at Jon's restaurant gave me the idea of having Jasper paint on a onesie to make something special for his baby sister.

Using logic only an almost-4-year-old can come up with, he had to use 3 paintbrushes at once.

The finished product

Outside Adventures

Poor Jasper is stuck inside a lot these days because I'm too nauseous and exhausted to go outside so it's nice when Daddy is home and we can go out and play. Jasper loves to go to the park and to the river and find rocks to throw.

Father's/Mother's Day Presents

We got our presents early this year.

"Steak-enstein" for Daddy

A gorgeous booth from the restaurant for me. I love it.

Knights in Shining Armor

Uncle Jerm is a good sport.

Easter

One nice thing about Jon's work schedule is that often the only place open when he gets off work is the grocery store meaning my Easter baskets are usually full of food, which is great for me especially this year.

Everyone got punching balloons in their baskets which caused a punching balloon war that was absolutely hilarious.

Daddy and Jerm were nice enough to get up when Jasper got up so we could color eggs. They aren't quite awake yet :)

This was our first year coloring eggs with Jasper and he seemed to really enjoy it. He wore his paint shirt to minimize mess and only cracked about half the eggs when dropping them into the cups.

Playing computer games is really hard work.

Easter Bunny

Today we had Easter craft time. We made this Easter bunny with a 2-liter bottle for the body, a 4-inch styrofoam ball for the head, and probably 300 cotton balls. I think Jasper's favorite part was getting fuzzy fingers from the glue and cotton balls. I'm pretty impressed with this, actually, since I just made it up in my head while I was doing dishes this morning. We haven't had craft time for a long time and this was a good step back in the craft time mode.
