happy easter 2014/mri results
i just said to andrew, "and that closes another holiday season..." i always feel like after easter/the boys' birthdays we are holidayed out. i am done buying presents/candy/eggs/etc. the next set of holidays are my favorite, memorial day/fourth of july/labor day. these are pool holidays. bring on the summer! (ha! i just sounded like olaf from frozen, we love that movie over here)! i couldn't be more ready for some lazy summer days.
we did get back carson's mri results and everything looks great. nothing of concern. i did about have a small heart attack when the neurologist's office called the next day. i immediately thought the only reason they would call so quickly would be to deliver bad news. thankfully, not the case. he's all good, thank God. so now i will start to question him being on a daily medicine for seizures. that'll come at his next appointment next week. pray that i can effectively get my concerns across without sounding crazy. we just don't see the need for a daily medicine that has side effects (nothing major, but still) when there is a chance the seizure was a fluke. we'll see what they say.
as far as shelby's first easter i'd say it was a hit. she debuted two super cute easter outfits and even made it out to church. she did her usual squeal like a piglet right in the middle of a prayer but it's ok. as one of the sweet users told me as i was quickly taking her out, she is just making joyful noises and every one loves that.
brooks was very inquisitive this year about easter and what it all means. how did jesus die on the cross, why would they nail him to it, what is a sin, why did he have to carry the cross? yikes! thankfully, we have a wonderful pre-K teacher, sunday school class and several books to help explain it all in a way that he was satisfied with. what a sweet boy he is. and a mess. he's also a mess sometimes.
and then there's carson. sweet, oblivious carson. this is his 7th easter. he was born the day after easter 7 years ago. my how time is flying. i have a hard time with this time of year. i know it's getting closer and closer to a day that i dread. and every year it just gets further and further away but boy do those feeling never fade. but that's another post for another day.
for now, here are my 3 little loves on easter. at least all that i could get them to sit for. it's not easy getting all 3 to cooperate.

putting flowers on the cross outside
after church
yes, she does this all the time. no, it will never stop. i don't know who ever gave her a camera. just keep smiling.
she at least can't escape when i'm taking pictures!

Those three little children could not be cuter or sweeter. I sure wish we all lived closer.
