Spring has sprung and we’re all loving the pretty weather!
Lots and lots of time for tennis for all!
Easter
Sunday morning we were happy to see the Easter Bunny had brought some goodies! He also hid some eggs inside the house. Fun for all.
We then put on our Easter best and started the process of trying to get a good photo! ha! The kids love this part of Easter.
Family timer selfie!
This one never has an issue posing for photos!
We got to church plenty early – just more time for more photos!
Maxwell acolyted during the very busy and long 9:00 service and did a great job!
We put flowers on the cross…
and then made the drive to Montgomery for more pictures!
To me this was the winning family photo of the day!
We didn’t just take pictures in Montgomery, we also saw Lulu and Granddaddy and all of the cousins! But we took pictures with them too!
We then had a nice visit and the kids learned to play Old Maid.
A very happy Easter all around!
Egg hunt
We didn’t all make it up to the egg hunt at the club but Samantha did! Robert and I were at Spencer’s basketball tournament and Maxwell was with some friends, so Samantha went up to the club with her buddies to see the bunny! Unfortunately the rain kept them from being able to hunt eggs but they still had fun together.
Hippity hoppity!
checkup
Last week I took Samantha in for her 8 year checkup and got a great report all around! She is 49 inches and 56 lbs. That is 25th % for height and 50th % for weight. She’s grown 1.75 inches and gained 6 lbs since her 7 year old visit. Dr. Crum said her BMI is perfect and she’s a healthy, growing girl!
Spencer at 8 was 51 inches tall (50th %) and 58.2 lbs (55th %). Maxwell at age 8 was 50 inches tall and 52.4 lbs.
She did have to get her finger pricked which she REALLY doesn’t like but she handled it so got some C is for Cookie ice cream after!
Unfortunately, my healthy girl didn’t stay healthy long! As soon as we got into the car after her appointment she said, “my throat kinda hurts!” Not sure why she didn’t mention that while we were actually in the doctor’s office but we got to go back up there the next day to get a positive strep test. No fun at all. She was pretty miserable for a day but then the antibiotics did her job and she was back to her normal, healthy self!
Thankful for antibiotics and good doctor reports!
photog
Who’s the better photog? Samantha…
or Spencer?
I’d say it a tie! Gotta love a good upward angle shot!
