Good News

The mouse trap worked. We set it out that night and the next morning it was caught. Poor Savannah thought that it was in some kind of cage so we could let it go outside. I had to carefully explain that the mouse was not alive anymore and that I am not opening the trap to see the mouse. I am glad to have it gone. We do have another trap set just in case, but so far no mouse.


We had such a great Easter weekend. The weather her in NY was beautiful. Friday and Saturday it was in the 80's so we spent a lot of time outside. The Easter bunny came on Saturday morning and brought the girls some fun tools for the garden. They are excited to help mom.

Conference was wonderful as usual. Luckily this year we were even able to watch it on our tv. The cable company here decided to carry it. We usually watch it on the computer. Savannah was very excited and even stopped to listen to quite a bit of Sat. morning session. With all the warm weather and the fun of Easter, conference, and way too many sweets, I think we wore out the kids. During the Sat. afternoon session Savannah climbed on Seth's lap and promptly fell asleep. She NEVER does this. Even when she was little she would rarely fall asleep in our arms. Then during Sun. morning session she fell asleep on my lap and slept for an hour. Of course Bella decided not to take a nap on Sunday so about 15 min before the end of conference which is about 5:45 pm our time, she had a melt down and then fell asleep in Seth's arms. We didn't let her sleep long, but Seth still enjoyed it for a little while. Here is a picture of Seth and Savannah during Sat. afternoon session.

That's awesome your cable company carried it! It's SO much better being able to watch it on tv. We've started just bringing the computer box out and hooking it up to the tv - so like the tv is the monitor. So it's still on the internet but much better than all 5 of us crowding in our bedroom!

Gardening tools - what a cute idea! (If I had a garden, of course.)

Hooray for catching the mouse!! Holy cow--Bella is such a big girl all of the sudden!!!! I think she grew three people's worth of hair since the last picture you posted! So, so cute! We have done Easter baskets on Saturday for a few years and I love it. We didn't this year because we weren't home for 2 seconds on Saturday, but I love it so much more. I also love the gardening tools. That will be so much fun! So cute that Savannah AND Bella fell asleep on Seth this weekend. I'm sure he loved it!! WAY TO POST, JENI!!!

Your girls are so grown up... especially "baby Bella". They are so cute. It sounds like you had a wonderful Conference/Easter weekend. We miss your family like crazy. Hope things are going well! xoxo!
