Spring is here!

We are so excited that Spring is finally here! Our sinuses are not so happy about all the pollen but it is a small price to pay for the beautiful weather. We have been enjoying lots of outdoor time.

Easter weekend Nana and Pop came to stay with Ella Catherine and Carter while Matt and I had our first adult weekend since Carter was born. We went to Louisville, KY for my best friend, Jennifer's wedding. It was so nice to be able to sleep in and actually get a full night of uninterrupted sleep. The wedding was BEAUTIFUL and we had a BLAST! We have decided that we need to go back and actually get out and enjoy the city as this trip we only enjoyed sleeping in the hotel room. :) We got home just in time for the Easter bunny's arrival. We can't thank my parents enough for taking care of the kids.

A little update on the kids:
Carter is now 10 1/2 months old. He gave us a scare about 1 month ago. He had pneumonia and almost ended up in the hospital. Luckily the antibiotics worked and in 24 hours you would never have known he was sick. He is standing up by himself now and will walk holding 1 finger. It is only a matter of time before we have a cruiser. He is just as happy as he can be and his chuckle is one of the highlights of my day. One of the other highpoints is his bear hugs. He LOVES to give big hugs.
Ella Catherine is a delight and a handful all in one cute little package. Matt and I are well aware that she is no longer a toddler but a little girl. It really is amazing how muh she has changed in 3 years. Much to her dad's delight she is really starting to become interested in sports. She has started wanting to play baseball with Matt in the yard. She can throw the ball pretty well, has a pretty good arm on her but we are still working on the catching. I have a feeling that she will have her own little glove and teeball set here before too long. :)
