Home Sweet Home

We made it home on Monday, and the flight home wasn't terrible, but it didn't go as smoothly as the flight down there. It was completely full so I had to hold Cameron, and Brayden was tired and cranky. Oh, and I got to experience changing a poopy diaper in an airplane bathroom...interesting. This is Brayden on the ride home from the airport.

Easter weekend we were at my grandma's house, who lives on a farm, and Brayden had a blast. He got to ride 2 tractors, a 4 wheeler, and took a trailer ride down to the creek. He dyed Easter eggs, played trucks with my cousin's 2 and 1/2 year old son, and opened Christmas presents (first time we've been down since then) - and this was all just on Saturday! The weather was beautiful and he had a very full and busy day.

Easter Sunday was cold and pouring down rain. We planned to get a picture of the boys and Bailee (my 8 month old niece) all dressed up in their Easter outfits, but we were rushed getting out the door for church (about 12 ppl sharing one shower) and then by the time we got home we were all soaking wet. We spent the afternoon at my aunt's and Brayden played with all of my "little" cousins. I remember them all being his age, but they are all 7-16 now. Crazy. He actually enjoys playing with older kids, and they were all really good with him. He played so hard that day that he just walked in the living room around 5:00, didn't say a word, laid down on the floor and passed out within seconds.

Oh, and while we were gone, my wonderful husband had our entire downstairs painted, the basement stairs carpeted, our bathroom countertop refinished, and had laminate wood floors installed in the kitchen/family room. The house looks amazing, but now I have a TON of work to do to put everything back where it belongs. Oh, and I plan to paint the kitchen cabinets and table, so if anyone enjoys that kind of stuff feel free to come hang out for a day or 2!!
