Easter was lots of fun. The sunday before, we colored eggs at grandma and papa's. Kaydee didn't like using spoons or the egg dippers, so she just kept sticking her hand in the dye. Her entire hand was colored for days. Ha ha. Then on saturday we went to an Easter egg hunt at Makenzie's school. It's a drive for us, but we've been doing it since I had kids and it is so fun that we all get to do it together and my kids love going with their cousins. I would post pictures of the hunt, but unfortunately, we didn't have any spackle that day. (Don't ask!) They have games and activities inside and then you can pay $1 for raffle tickets and they draw names for baskets of goodies at the end. Maycee was the first name called! She was such a good girl, and even though she didn't get a nap she stayed happy the whole time. Afterwards, me and grandma Becky took the kids to Mcdonalds to play and eat lunch. Maycee was trying to go to sleep at the table! Silly girl. After we got home we finished up some Easter crafts we were doing, and then made some bunny sugar cookies. On Easter morning Sydnee and Kaydee were so excited to wake up and see that the Easter bunny had been here. They giggled at the silly places the bunny hid the eggs. Then they found their baskets. Later we went to grandma and papa's and they did another hunt that was super fun and we had a delicious Easter dinner and then they each got a huge bucket full of toys and goodies. They are such lucky kids! It was a wonderful Easter!
I just love this picture! Sister love. Although, you can see that Maycee's skin is still pretty orange even though she doesn't eat as much orange food anymore. 
We've been loving the nice spring weather and hope there is much more to come! Sydnee and Kaydee love taking Maycee for rides in all their different kinds of cars, and Maycee loves it too. 
We were so happy that Grandma Betty was in town for her birthday and we got to spend it with her. I think she loved having so many great grandkids in one place playing together. It made us sad to say goodbye but hopefully we will be seeing her again in June!
We bought bunk beds for Sydnee and Kaydee when we moved them into the same room, but we had them separate. We finally decided they were ready to bunk and of course Kaydee wanted to be on top. They are loving it. They even like to "play bunkbeds" during the day. They were doing that yesterday and then went down to the toy room to play with their Easter stuff. Suddenly the door opened, and Sydnee is grinning ear to ear with blue stamps covering her face and arms. Kaydee was right behind her with the same thing. I was shocked! I said "What are you doing?" And I think they thought I was mad because Kaydee started to cry. But then I couldn't stop laughing. So then they were laughing and wanted to do more. I had to try and be serious enough to tell them not to do it again. I think I failed. Lol.
It's so fun being a mom to my girls. Sometimes they are very dramatic, moody and hard to handle. But other times we just laugh and laugh together and I forget all that. People always tell me they feel sorry for me having 3 girls. To that I say "You should be jealous!!" They are amazing :)
