Easter Weekend


This weekend was really busy but we had such a great time. We celebrated Easter and Tim's birthday.










Friday night we spent with Tim's family at the Cheesecake factory. That place is so good. I always have to get there chicken salad sandwich. Then it was the start of the Easter celebrations. Saturday we had Easter with my parents and then went to Carlos Obriens for mexican food for Tim's dinner with my family. It is definetly one of our favorites but the closest one is in Scottsdale so when ever we get the chance we go there. My mom had an easter egg hunt for Ben and gifts for Claire. At the end of the night both kids got to wear there Easter jammies home.
















Sunday we had the chance to go to church with my parents and see a lot of our old friends. Claire did really well playing with Grandma. After we headed to Tim's family celebration it was at my sister in laws Dads house they all a ton of games to play and Tim played a bean bag game with his brother. Of course I only took one picture of Tim and Claire with Grandpa Anderson.

Last Night

Last night I was playing with Claire on her toy mat. She was on her stomach and all of the sudden she was on her back. I couldn't believe it she rolled over for the first time and I actually was right there. I hurried and called Tim over and she did it again for him but that was it we grabbed the video camera and she wouldn't do it again. She is changing so quickly. Here are some pics from the last few weeks.

New Toys

This week has been very exciting. We went to Babies R Us to get a high chair we figured we would need one eventually and Claire likes to sit with us during dinner so it makes it a little easier when she has somewhere to sit instead of us holding her. While we were there we also got her a play mat she has been having so much fun with it.

D- backs

My Mom had the opportunity to get suite tickets for all of us to go to the D-backs pre season game. It was a lot of fun. I barely watched any of the game but it was fun going with the family and taking Claire to the stadium for the first time. I was so excited bfore she was born I had anticipated cold weather and a bigger baby so we have a few outfits that are long sleeved and jeans I have been dying to put her in and they finally fit. Friday night was really windy so she got all dressed up.
My sister had a chance to hold her while my nephew Ben was playing trucks with my Mom. He isn't quite sure about his Mom holding some one else yet.

The Worst Day For Mom


Last week was Claire's 8 week appointment I was dreading it ever since I found out she had to have shots. Even though I am a nurse and learned to give them I have never been a big fan. When I have to get shots or blood drawn I never look and my hands get super sweaty. So when Claire had to have shots I didn't look and stayed by her face for comfort. She did pretty well but cried when the 3rd shot came I think she thought she was done. Here are a few pics from that day we just stayed home and spent time relaxing on the couch. The pics were hard to get, she kept covering her bandaids right as the flash went off.
