Spring Break & Easter

Last week was Spring Break so we didn't have dance class, music class or playgroup. I thought we might get bored, but we managed to fill time by playing at the park, going to the zoo, having a playdate with Alexa and Niki, going to "Maya's school" aka Basha's daycare, helping teach a black hair care class to adoptive and foster parents, going to Peter Piper Pizza, and swimming and spending time with my brother's family who is in town.

Easter festivities consisted of a breakfast and egg hunt on Saturday morning at the park. Kenyon had a fever on Friday night so we hesitated about going, but it was gone Saturday morning. By the time we got done though, it was back. So we spent all day Saturday keeping him drugged so it wouldn't spike again. Sunday morning he still had it so we didn't even get to go to church on Easter - that was strange! The kids found their Easter baskets here and then later on we went to my moms for an egg hunt and yummy ham dinner. Sunday night we decided to take Kenyon in to the clinic thinking he might have an ear infection. He didn't - just a virus! My mom kept Maya overnight at her house and let me tell you, our house is SO quiet with just one kid. Kind of nice, but kind of lonely too.

Here are some recent pics!

Not the best Easter Bunny picture, but I planned on going back in their Easter clothes and didn't make it

When I help teach the black hair care class, my friend Kiara brings her daughter Destany so we can demonstrate on her and Maya. They wanted to dress as twins! :)

I didn't plan on dunking Kenyon under quite yet, but he was diving down and loved it!
And when he came back up - look at that mop!

Peter Piper Pizza - he didn't love this ride

We left Keegan and Kenyon in here playing for a while
"Look what I won!"

Kenyon was happy with just one egg

Very excited about his new lawnmower
"Hi!"
Forget the eggs - just give him rocks!
