Just trying to catch up on blog postings. Here is a quick recap of April. Hannah turned 4 months on April 1. She started rolling over from her back to tummy the day after she turned 4 months. I can't blame Mary Catherine anymore when I look up and Hannah is not where I left her. Excuse the scratch on her forehead. She started sucking her thumb and often misses her mouth and scratches herself.

We went to several Easter egg hunts this year. The pics you see here are from our neighborhood egg hunt. Mary Catherine and Hannah also attended an Easter egg hunt with my mom's group at church and with my other mom's group called No Drama Mamas. This doesn't include all the other egg hunts in our living room that Mary Catherine wanted to do. It was really funny. Everywhere that I hid eggs for Mary Catherine, she would turn around and hide the eggs in the same place for me to find. By Easter morning she was a pro at finding Easter eggs.

Mary Catherine takes her afternoon nap on our bed; however, she decided that she wanted to give Hannah's bassinet a try. I had left our bedroom to put Hannah to sleep and when I came back to lay Hannah down, Mary Catherine was sound asleep in the bassinet. So as you can see, I laid Hannah on our bed while Mary Catherine took her nap in the bassinet.

Easter Morning at Grammy's House
Andy, Hannah and I drove home Monday afternoon. Mary Catherine stayed in Oklahoma for a few days with Grammy and Auntie M. I was really excited to have some one-on-one time with Hannah and Mary Catherine was really excited to finally be the center-of-attention again. It worked out great!
Lucy and Hannah
These are some pics of Hannah and Lucy together. Every time I turn around Lucy is cuddled up next to Hannah while she is napping. At night, Lucy will sleep under Mary Catherine's bed until Andy and I go to sleep. She is very protective over the babies.

Before leaving for Oklahoma for Easter, we attempted to take pictures of the girls with blue bonnets. I never imagined that it would be so difficult. We were all ready to go but Hannah started getting fussy so I put her in the swing and she fell asleep. Then Mary Catherine was getting hungry because it was close to dinner time. So we took her dress off and let her have a snack. By that time it was getting late, but we packed up and went anyways. We didn't get any really good pics of the girls together but I guess we have next year.
This was our first year to go to Oklahoma for Easter since we've lived in Austin. Andy was able to take the Friday before and Monday after Easter off to make it a long weekend. Friday morning we went to the Omniplex with Auntie M and Grammy and then spent the evening with Andy's parents. Saturday, we celebrated Mary and Paul's engagment. Aunt Hailey (Joey's wife) made the cutest matching t-shirts for the girls so we had to take lots of pics. On Easter morning, Mary Catherine hunted for eggs with her cousins, Molly and Avery. We had a great time celebrating Easter with are families!
