so much to blog

It feels like I haven't blogged in months, especially when I look at that snowy scene on my blog. And so, I'm finally going to update.  You might want to go grab a snack while you read this--it's going to be a long one.  
First of all, there's Campbell's preschool Easter party and Spring Program.  The Easter party was so cute--they had a little egg hunt and then cupcakes, cookies, etc. for the party.  The little blond girl you see in these pictures is Campbell's preschool girlfriend, Reagan.  I say his
 preschool girlfriend because he has different girlfriends in different settings--such a ladies' man!  Anyway, these 2 are so thick that Campbell has a pet name for her, Reagy.  Well, apparently she likes this name because her mom told David that Reagan told her brother to call her that since, "that's what Campbell calls me!"  Can you believe that?  Too cute. 

 As for the Spring Program, this was the second one they'd had this year (1st was Christmas), and at Christmas, pretty much all the kids just stood there and cried for their  parents.  Well, this time went much better, there was still no singing actually coming from anyone in
 Campbell's class, but most of them held in their tears.  We had very high hopes of Campbell actually singing because he'd been seranading us for weeks with "Fuzzy Caterpillar" and other cute songs, but alas, he did not sing.  He did, however, love being up there, especially w
hen he found Papa and Mommy in the crowd.  It is so fun to see him doing stuff like this.  I can't believe how fast he is growing up.

Then we went to Kentucky to celebrate with David's mom's family.  Campbell LOVES going to the farm and seeing the cows with Uncle Jeff.  He even says that he's going to be a cow farmer when he grows up.  Not sure if he's ever actually been brave enough to pet one yet, but he sure does love to see them.  But this trip was all about the Easter egg hunt.  Campbell was really excited about it, but as soon as he picked up his first egg, he opened it up to discover the candy inside.  Well, that was it.  The rest of the hunt was spent with Campbell opening each and every egg he found while David and I told him to just wait and find more eggs.  Oh well, whatever makes him happy, I guess.
Poor Andrew didn't really get to enjoy the Easter egg hunt--it was too cold for him.  He stayed inside and cuddled with MeMe, which of course, was just fine by MeMe.  This is as close as he got to hunting eggs.
Then we went back home to set out our baskets for the Easter Bunny (or Super Bunny, as Campbell likes to call him!)  But I think this got Campbell a little too excited because by 9:00 that night, we'd already been up there 3 times trying to get him to calm down and go to sleep. Then he was up by 6:30 the next morning.  But he and Andrew loved seeing what Super Bunny had brought them.  Super Bunny was extra generous to Campbell this year, springing for a
kitchen.  I think he was rewarding Campbell for making the transition to being a big brother so well.  Andrew got a Bumbo seat, and he likes it OK, but someone else thinks it is for him.  Have you ever seen a 2 year old in one?  Well, mine is actually still small enough to fit in it pretty easily and any time we put Andrew in it he says, "now it's my turn!"  But here are some great pictures of sweet Andrew's big cheese and Campbell looking for the eggs from Super Bunny.  There are so many pictures I want to post, but blogger just takes so long to do it that I don't have the patience.  Maybe later, but probably not.

Then it was off to church for the extra crowded service and then down to Lewisburg to celebrate with my family.  We had lunch and another egg hunt at my grandmother's house. Campbell is seriously a  professional egg hunter by now.  
And then back to Gigi's house (my mom's) to hang out for a little while.  We actually did take some family pictures at my mom's house but they are on her camera, so look for those later. But don't hold your breath, I'm pretty bad about remembering to add photos later.  Lastly MeMe and Papa came over Easter night to hang out and have a little more Easter fun with the boys.  They enjoyed watching a Tom and Jerry video together.
And so this long post draws to a close.  Though looking back on it, I don't think it's actually my longest.  But it is probably my most boring, so thanks to those of you who made it through.

  • Santa brought William that exact kitchen this year. He loves it! I hope Campbell has as much fun with it as William does.
