I realize this is several days later, but I must say I loved Easter weekend. Took the boys to the zoo and my parents came along. We even rode the boat there. It was fabulous weather. I must also mention that it was a four day weekend for me, which yes even though not long after spring break, I truly needed it. Spring break is so much show stuff for me and trying to get caught up that it's not usually very relaxing. Friday I got out my camera and went to take maternity and family pictures for my friend. I haven't really taken pics for awhile and I really enjoyed it. Then Saturday the zoo and Sunday our family gathering.
I'm not sure either boy understood what Easter was, but by the end they had a lot of fun. R played with my cousin's girl and they had a lot of fun. We hid eggs and looked for them. I really like family gatherings and enjoy seeing all my family. It was nice to hear my family say how much both boys have changed. Sometimes I don't see it since I'm see them daily. R can still be extremely bipolar going from extreme mood to the other very quickly. He has done that the last two days and it seems like there is nothing causing it, though I'm sure there is.
Today is visit with mom. I'm not sure how I feel about this except it's annoying because she always sends things back with them. Last week it was baskets of candy....lots of candy. G isn't even eating regular food and hot tamales for a 3yr old. Really....Those caused a huge fight also. And all she feeds them is McDonald's and sweets. Very difficult when I'm trying to get R to eat better and G to eat period. G is starting to eat finally non baby food. He ate half of a grilled cheese at a restaurant the other day. I was amazed. Unfortunately he is picky and won't even try most foods. I'm finding though if he gets to hungry he won't eat anything and just throws fits. Both boys are improving though and I'm happy about that. G started yesterday with his first appointment with the Infant Child Development (IFD) in town and we are going to get that started. I'm very worried that his legs aren't straight. I'm looking forward to a weekend where we don't have anything planned. Maybe I'll get some laundry done. :-)
