I am taking us all back in time by a couple of weeks to catch you up on my updates :)

Easter

For Easter we actually did not go to church. Maybe we made up for all the people who only go on Christmas and Easter? hehe ;) Anyway, it was the day before my c-section and the baby was on my sciatic nerve and there was no way I could sit somewhere that long. Plus with all the colds and stuff going around I was not up for it.

Aidan went to church with Nick’s parents that day and got jelly beans and did other fun stuff at their church.

We did go to Nick’s parents’ house for “dinner” (why must holiday “dinners” be at 3 pm? Who eats dinner at 3?!). Anyway it was delicious! We ate outside in the back yard since the weather was so nice.

It was great hanging out with Don’s family (Nick’s step-dad has the COOLEST family!).

We were going to do an Easter egg hunt but it was kind of hot and Aidan had been running around a ton and we just thought that plus no nap spelled disaster. He got his eggs later though. Grandma also colored eggs with Aidan the night before.

One of the neatest things was that Anthony (Don’s son-in-law / Nick’s step-brother-in-law hehe) brought a cool kite and got it flying SUPER high. Aidan was very thrilled with the whole thing. Too bad I forgot my camera and got no pics of anything from the day. Aidan loves Anthony sooo much and would just follow him anywhere. I think the feeling is mutual though as Anthony is always so happy to see Aidan and he always shows him something new or does something to just make Aidan’s face light up.

It was a little weird because Aidan spent the night at Don and Sharon’s on Saturday and Sunday… so when we went over there on Easter Sunday and were leaving for the night, Aidan thought he was going with us. We kept telling him what was going on, but everytime we said bye to him he said, “bye grandma” hehe. Of course he did ok when we left (he only screams when OTHER people leave, sheesh!! :P )… but we were sad to leave him there again. We missed our buddy.

Oh yah, and Easter dinner was the last time I had to give myself an insulin shot! :)

I am hoping I don’t end up on it again after my follow-up with the endocrinologist in May. I am not sure how my sugars are actually doing because I am sick right now, so they will run a bit higher until I am better. It’s only been 2 weeks, so time will tell. I am trying to get back on my good eating track though.
