Whew, what a crazy busy life we are living! My baby girl turned 4 months old this week. I know, I can't believe it either! I wish she'd stop growing so darn fast!

Yesterday we had our first appointment with the manipulative massage. She did very well and he thinks it will help with some of the drainage problems she's having and the resistance she has to turn her head to the left. She massaged her for about 45 minutes...mommy's jealous; I'd love a good massage!
After the manipulation, we stopped by the nursing home for the Easter egg hunt that they have for the kids and grandkids of the employees. Grandma Cindy did a good job organizing it and Natalee got lots of goodies. She had her first taste of a sucker...just a couple licks, though, before her mean old mom made her throw it away.

We went home for awhile & Natalee took a nap & then we ran out to Andrea & Vance's for supper. Natalee got Easter goodies from Grandma, Papa & the Aunties/Uncle & cousins. She's such a lucky girl. She got 2 fun board books (a taggies Pat-a-Cake that she thought was pretty funny & a Big & Little book with doggies on the front), a shirt about cute aunties from Nannie, and an awesome barn with 6 animals that make sounds from Grandma & Papa. I'm pretty in love with the barn, myself!

Today, we went back to Nannie & Vance's to visit with cousins of mine who are back for Easter. It was a nice relaxing morning and we had a great time...Natalee just chilled & was in a pretty good mood and I had a good time visiting with family. Then we booked it out for a baby shower for a friend of mine who is due in May.
Finally Natalee and I got home and were ready to kick back and rest and Mike decided we should all take a walk. So we geared up and walked over to his grandma's and visited with his aunt & uncle.
Natalee snuggled with Uncle Denny & Aunts Penny & Boots & Great-Grandma Betty. She was in a great mood while we were there. When we left we headed over to the church to set up tables for Sonrise breakfast & to get the nursery ready for a busy day tomorrow. Natalee started wearing down while we were there so we hussled and got her home for a nap.
After Natalee's bath and supper Aunt Kea & Grandma Sara came by to steal some kisses and bring some Easter presents. Natalee got a hoppy, dancing, singing bunny that's so cute he might drive you bananas, a soft Taggies books & a giggling hippo. What a loved lady!

Mike & I played "Easter Bunny" tonight & I can't wait to see what Natalee thinks of her goodies. She's getting such a personality...I've been picking up things here and there for 2 months that I know she'll enjoy. A training sippy cup, a couple of pop-up board books, a soft bear Bible, Praise Baby DVD, Stack & Roll cups, and a Buddy Bear (lavendar scented bear that you can warm in the microwave to soothe). I also got her a Teethifier teether the other day but I already gave it to her & couldn't locate it to put in her Easter basket. Oh, and the sunglasses she wore earlier!
Right now Natalee is crashed, Mike's shaving & I'm decompressing. I had to sit and take a break because standing in the shower sounded like a lot of work. I'm excited for tomorrow and the Sonlight kids' performance at Sonrise. It's going to be another long but love filled day of family.
I pray this Easter is finding you all as blessed, loved and awe filled of the reason we celebrate as we are at our house. God's love to each and every one of you!

whoa that was a lot of news and info...loved all the pictures, especially the first 2 and the ones with the sunglasses! glad i got to see her so much this weekend!
LOVE all the pictures, she really is growing! And BTW, Tucker loves those stackable cups. He has had them since he was 2 months old and keeps finding new ways to play with them!
great pictures! i love the one of her in her sunglasses and the last one with the easter chicks. i love the expression on her face and i LOVE the touch of color you did to the picture. you are becoming quite the photographer! great job on the sonlight performance yesterday, they did a great job!
Wow, that was a long post,let me see if I can remember what I wanted to say. I love the pictures of measuring her. She looks so big and proud. That picture at the nursing home made me realise how alike you two look. Where is Mike going? Man she really cleaned up on Easter presents. Boo to no pictures with the cousins. Love the sunglasses pics. Levi has been getting really into his sunglasses lately. I just love baby's in sunglasses so funny for some reason. Great picture with the chicks. I love how intently she's watching them. I'm glad you had off Monday so you could recover from what sounded like a very hectic weekend.
