So Thursday was the begining of the Easter Egg hunts and glorious but very busy Easter weekend. That being said, I woke up around 1 am Thursday morning and just did not feel well, I took a shower and some tylenol and went back to bed. Well, by the time I woke up around 7 to take the boys to school I had a 102 temp and could barely get out of bed. I got the boys off to school and Harper and I headed to Erik's clinic to see what was wrong, I decided to nurse her there and I discovered the problem, Mastitis! So I dosed myself on tylenol and motrin and got my antibiotic and headed home. Let me say I am so thankful for Erik. He made room in his schedule to go pick up Cooper from preschool that morning around 11:15 and then took him back to the clinic to feed him lunch and later brought him home that afternoon, with my antibiotics and lunch. Cooper was so excited that his daddy picked him up from school and that he got to go have lunch with him. Cooper also had a whole bag full of candy filled eggs from their egg exchange at school. I allowed him to sit in the floor while laid on the couch and eat every piece, as long as he did not bother me, I felt so horrible. I am mom of the year or what?
So later that evening I remembered that Hagen's party was tomorrow and I had signed up to bring cookies, so I pulled myself off the couch and went to work, taking intermitent brakes of course. I made cookies.
I think they turned out pretty cute for my condition. I used sugar cookies and placed a peep in the middle with icing, then filled in the grass using green icing and a star tip. Finally adding jelly beans as eggs. A very fast easy treat. The kids loved them.
Friday morning, I was still not feeling well however I had promised Hagen I would be at his pre-school party, so Cooper and I headed to the school to attend. Thankfully Erik's mom was off to keep Harper. The kids had lots of great treats tons of eggs and a great party.
Hagen's preschool class singin the hymn "He Lives". They knew all the words! I was so proud of them. As you can see the girls like to dance.
Hagen and Ryland going after the eggs.
Hagen helping Kaylan with the eggs. All the kids had decorated their baskets (paint buckets) in class earlier that week.
Cooper and Beau finding eggs also.
The kids enjoying their snacks, eating on the table covered with decorated paper for Easter.
Kaylan, Cooper and Beau all attended their big brothers' Easter party. Ms. Bonnie was so nice to set them up a little table of their own and let them join in on the fun.
After the party Hagen came home with us, I was still feelin awful so I called my sister who was out of school for Good Friday and Hagen went fishing with her. So thankful for my family that helps me. Cooper and I spent the rest of the afternoon resting while Harper napped.
