Easter Sunday

We all had a lovely Easter this year except perhaps Sadie. She decided the day before to get sick.

We did manage to color eggs the night before.





What Sadie was sick with we aren't sure but she did have a fever that at times was at 103.5 degrees. Which of course made Mommy and Daddy scared.

We eventually got it down to 101 degrees but were still nervous and tried to have her sleep in our room so we could keep an eye on her which meant no one slept.

Then of course the Easter bunny had to get up early to hide eggs for the kids (thank goodness I'm not the Easter bunny). Church is at 9am so we woke up the kids just before 7am.

It was so AWESOME to be the ones waking them up instead of the other way around. Mwahahaha! They both requested that we turn out their lights and let them sleep until we repeated several times that it was Easter and they should go see what the bunny brought them. :)

The kids all got a few fun things from the Easter bunny.







Then we had breakfast. Which I planned everything else out for the day but totally forgot about breakfast. While filming our Easter morning I turn the camera to Wesley who happened to ask, "Did you have something special planned for breakfast." Oops! And that is where the filming stops because I was just thinking cereal. :)

But I made some french toast and eggs. Everyone ate and while I was upstairs getting ready, I heard Wesley tell Sadie it was okay. So I went downstairs to investigate. Sadie had thrown up her breakfast and before Wesley could get a chance to do more than move her plate she fell asleep. Poor thing.



Well that pretty much made it clear that she wasn't fit for church. I was pretty sure I would be spending another Easter in the ER (two years ago Jared sliced his thumb on a can and had to get stitches). But I had already agreed to sub for Relief Society that day and didn't think I should back out at the last minute. So Wes and I did a switch halfway through church so I could stay home with Sadie during the first little bit and then go teach. During which time Sadie's temperature went down again to the low 100s.

After church we went up to my dad's house.

This is him.

He really wanted a picture with his pregnant daughter.

I never really feel huge until I see pictures...or look in a mirror...or hear ladies at the park trying to decide how close I am to having the baby and giggling to themselves about how funny I look. :)

Anyways back to Easter. Here are some more photos.







And for the grand finale! I grew something from a seed and it survived! I'm not a green thumb. I haven't really had much practice but I do recall killing all my cacti growing up AND I bought a lot! I mean what does that say about someone when they can't keep a cactus alive. :)

But look at this!


It bloomed on Easter, which of course makes the entire story A LOT cooler. ;)

Yay Me!

Oh and I should add that Sadie is doing much better.
