Alabama and Easter Fun

Sorry for the long delay in blogging. 2 weeks ago, the boys & I went home to Alabama to help my sister and we just decided to stay until Easter! It was great being home for a while, but living out of a suitcase for 3 people got old pretty fast. The boys loved playing with their cousins and staying with the family. Will's parents were so kind to let us stay with them majority of the time. We did spend a few days at my sister's house and a few with my Dad though. We were very excited to see Will last Thursday night. We missed him very much!!

While we were in Alabama, Will and I celebrated our 6 yr. Wedding Anniversary!! It doesn't seem like we have been married that long!! I look forward to many more!!

Max will be 8 months old in just a few days, and he is definitely growing up. He has been trying to crawl for about 6 weeks now. He would throw himself down and draw up his knees and then barrel roll wherever he wanted to go. Well, while in Alabama he started CRAWLING!!! He has been crawling for about a week now, and he is EVERYWHERE!! He loves going after Jack's toys. His favorite thing is Jack's cup. If Jack leaves it on the floor and leaves the room, Max is off. He goes as fast as he can to grab it before Jack realizes it!! ha ha His 2 bottom teeth have also broken through. I love his new toothy smile!! He has been running a fever the past 2 days and his top gums are swollen, so it looks like his toothy smile will be growing soon.

Easter was really great! It was nice to spend the day with family! Living away for a while makes you appreciate the time with your loved ones! We had a great day! Here are a few pics from Easter!
