Two posts in one day! I figured one big long one might be a bit much.

Easter. I realize that this is almost 2 weeks late, but things have been busy and I haven't been getting on the computer all that much.

Graham and Elise hanging out in their strollers on Easter morning.

A pretty sharp contrast to last Easter when they made their OneLife debut. Graham is in the middle and Elise is on the far right.(I'm bummed we couldn't include Asher in this year's picture, but seeing as his family moved to Chicago, that would have been pretty hard. I miss you, Johnsons!)

Matthew's first Easter egg hunt!

And his first tattoo =)

A few days later at Uncle Kelly's house watching the dog run around the back yard.

Playing with the toy kitchen she got for her birthday

Gilbert had a long week last week and by Sunday afternoon he was wiped. He fell asleep on the living room floor and when the kids woke up from their naps they used him as a jungle gym. Surprisingly, he slept through most of it.

Elise had her 1 year check up last week and she weighed in at 19lbs 10oz. I was pretty surprised to hear the doctor say that that puts her in the 25th percentile for weight considering her legs still look like this

That's also a good example of what I mean when I say she has tiny feet for her size.

My thumbsucker =)

Matthew is enjoying Elise's toy kitchen so much that he's constantly stealing my oven mitts to play with them. I finally got tired of trying to hunt down my mitts and decided to make him his own. Of course, I had to make it somewhat manly.

Next to mine just for scale

Matthew "making" (his way of saying that he's cooking)

Just because she's cute

Elise has recently taken to chewing on her crib rail while waiting for me to get her after her naps. Unfortunately this means she's ingested some of the finish. This makes me uneasy and I'm not thrilled about what it does to the crib aesthetically. I decided to dig through all of my scraps and ended up throwing this together yesterday. An easy, cheap solution that matches her room decor. Please excuse the ill fitting bumper wrapped around the bottom of the crib. I was just testing it out and have since decided to keep it there instead of the crib skirt I previously had on there and I haven't had a chance to adjust it yet.

Other than her weight, which wasn't a concern at all, Elise is doing well. According to her pediatrician, she has pretty much caught up for her age. She's not making much effort to walk yet, but she's cruising all over the place and trying to climb. I can't believe how big she's getting.

Viviana seems to be right on track, too. According to my doctor, I weigh the exact same amount I did at this point with Elise and my tummy is measuring the same. Seeing as I started out 10 lbs heavier this pregnancy, I'd say I'm not doing too bad. I also passed my glucose test. Woohoo! I will now be seeing my doctor every other week and I'll probably start going in once a week starting at 34 weeks.

I'd say my tummy has grown quite a bit in the last 3 weeks =)
