Some Firsts

Last Friday night, Shane took Chase to his first Hornets game. As most of our family knows, Chase is not too fond of loud noises or big crowds, so this was probably not the best idea. Shane said he freaked out when the players came running out to fireworks and was pretty quiet the entire game. They left at halftime, but Chase continues to talk about how much fun he had at the game and how he saw Hugo. Check out Chase's intense look while watching the game:


Yesterday I took the boys to meet Carrie and Conner at the zoo. This was Ethan's first trip to the zoo. All the kids were so well behaved and had a really good time. We stayed for 3 1/2 hours without anyone having any meltdowns. It was the perfect day!

Easter Break

Chase had over a week off from school for his Spring Break/Easter vacation. Eleven straight days at home with mommy and Ethan and I was really looking forward to him going back to school today!

We did get to do lots of fun activities over his break. We went to Global Wildlife Center and fed the animals, hosted a play date at our house, went to the pool at the gym and had lots of fun outside play time with our neighbors. Fortunately the weather was great for most of his vacation.

Easter was a lot of fun because Chase was really into this year. He loved doing Easter egg hunts and talking about the Easter bunny. But I think I might have said too much, because he was too scared to go to sleep by himself the night before Easter Sunday. He said that the Easter bunny closed his bedroom door, ha! Once I laid with him to fall asleep, he was fine and very excited to find all the Easter eggs we dyed the night before hidden all over the house. This year the Easter bunny stayed away from most candy and went with gifts. It might have been tougher on the wallet, but better on the Easter bunny's waist (since we end up eating most of the candy)!

Happy Easter to everyone!
