Easter Weekend 2010

Parker doesn't really get to participate in activities just yet, but there are a few photos of her. If I were to title the photo above it would be "Perspective". Look how huge Grant looks compared to Parker, it just shows how brief infancy truly is. Also, for all those who still like to harass me about my red head children, please take notes of the obvious color differences between these two, thanks!

Awake and waiting for the Easter Egg Hunt at Grandma Mitchell's to begin, she napped through the whole thing.

Grandma Mitchell, Ella and Grant watching the older children hunt eggs.

Grant showing us his blue egg, although don't ask him what color it is, we're still mastering that skill!

Ella, Grant and Parker coloring eggs. Jake was at the Priesthood session of conference with his Dad and brother Mike. Parker observed from the bouncy seat.

Easter egg hide and seek at our home. The Easter Bunny did an excellent job hiding eggs this year, throughout the day the kids kept finding ones they had missed.

Dinner with Jake's family!

Parker's Blessing

Three kids who can't get enough of their baby sister.

Jake blessed Parker at church today with a lot of our family and friends in attendance. In fact all of our siblings were able to attend. Jake's brother Bret had flown into Boise to surprise their Dad for his birthday. His sister Angie and her kids are visiting from Oregon for the week. Mike is here for his medical rotations and my brothers both live in Meridian. It's the first of our children's blessings that all siblings were here, it meant a lot to us to have them all here.

Our second family photo of 6. We love our beautiful children.

The proud parents who are, admittedly slightly sleep deprived, but in love with their new baby girl.

At three weeks and two days old she's awake a lot more and we were able to get some photos with her eyes open.

Time For Privacy

Jake and I have talked about this off and on for quite some time and I feel it's time that our blog was a private one, if you'd like to be able to read our blog please email me and I will add you to the list jakeandbritanie@msn.com.

Thanks!
