Lots of Easter Fun!

What a fun Easter weekend! On top of all of our activities, everyone is starting to get sick...again. Yuck! Sophie had her 4 month check-up on Friday, and she is as healthy as ever. Here are her stats:
Height: 24 1/2" (55%)
Weight: 13 lbs 1 oz (32%)
Head: 16 1/4" (50-75%)
Chad played in an alumni basketball tourney on Saturday. They had two games on Saturday morning and one in the afternoon. He was only able to make it to the two morning games due to the Easter egg hunt that afternoon.

After nap, we headed out to Madden's for the huge Easter egg hunt that they host every year. There were probably 500 kids out there between the two fields, and Brock and Ella had a BLAST! It was so much fun to see them get excited for all of the eggs. This year, Brock was able to really take off and grab some eggs; he got a whole bucket full! It was a lot of fun running around with him. Daddy took Ella and Sophie around, and they were able to snatch a few eggs. After the hunt, they had cupcakes, juice, and pop for all the kids. Tons and tons of fun for the kids and Mama and Daddy. I know we will be looking forward to that every year.
When we got home, we still needed to dye our eggs. Maddux was able to get her paws on a fallen egg and kept hovering around the table in search of another.
Today the kids were excited to see that the Easter Bunny had come. Their tummies were full of candy within the first half hour of waking up. For lunch we went to Great Grandpa and Grandma's. There was another egg hunt for the kids, and they raked in some more candy. When we got home, everyone was pooped! The kids took a 4-hour nap, and Mommy and Daddy were able to catch some z's as well.
