Just one picture, boys!

I will admit I can be pretty demanding when it comes to pictures, especially on holidays. But I have come a long way! I have conceded to let Camden wear sunglasses due his sensitive eyes and if Jaden is looking at the camera, I am happy. So when I discovered that Todd has kept snapping pictures when I was trying to get a booger out of Jaden's nose, I had a good laugh. These are priceless. I love how Camden's face changes from a big smile to a worried look by the last picture.

My Little Yadi in training


Everyone can't get over how good Camden is at catching for never having done it before. I'm so proud of this little man and his love for sports. He is one tough cookie! (And Mommy is getting faster faster at putting all the catcher gear on each inning!)

Easter Morning

We did not see the Easter bunny or do any egg hunts this year. I wasn't trying to be a fuddy-duddy, but sometimes, it bothers me how commercialized holidays have become. I want our boys to know why we celebrate Easter and that is has nothing to do with eggs or Easter baskets. We talked to Camden about Good Friday being the day Jesus was crucified and why he had to die and also that we celebrate Easter Sunday because that is the day Jesus rose from the grave.
We still hid eggs for them around the house and the Easter Bunny delivered baskets, but I am glad that was not our main focus. Among the eggs were two resurrection eggs that I plan to hide every year. Once the boys opened their eggs, they each got a resurrection egg and Camden told Jaden what each item stood for. He did a great job! Then, we were off to Victory to celebrate our risen Savior!
