April Showers

The "big" event of the month of April was Easter. We had an action packed weekend! We visited with Grandpa Dale and Grandma Kathy (who gave her an Easter Sing-a-Ma-Jig)...

...and we got to visit with Grandma and Grandpa Treptow who had a gathering to celebrate Auntie Barbie, Auntie Candy and Uncle Roger being in town. While there, the Stencels got Jaeden started on her golf game by giving her a set of clubs. She loved trying them out with Cousin Kayla and with Grandpa Bill the next day.

On Easter Sunday, Jaeden got to look for eggs (filled with her favorite Yogurt Melts) and discover bubbles that the Easter bunny left.

Later, Jaeden showed off her Easter dress at the Millers (of course after looking for real eggs there, too). She did well finding the eggs but has yet to master gently placing them in the basket ;-)

She took time out of her fun day to pose for a couple of pictures.

All in all, she was a real trooper all weekend, despite having pink eye. She was pretty miserable the next day and missed a day of school, but she's recovered nicely!



Just before Easter, Jaeden got her first "real" haircut. She was a real trooper then, too. I guess the Dora movie playing in front of her helped. Mom's even gotten brave since then and has been putting her hair in a "ponytail". She seems to like it once it is in!

Everyday smiles and shenanigans....

Lastly, Jaeden moved to her big sister room! She took to it immediately, probably because the closet contains half of her toys! Even though she's been in it for a few weeks, she still opens her closet and says, "WOW!" (in a whisper).

The room was complete after some home improvements. Her room and the nursery were recarpeted, her room was painted and both rooms got cordless blinds. It rained a lot in April, and you can tell in our house because home improvements didn't stop there. We repainted the Master bathroom and painted stage 1 (of 2) in the kitchen. April showers bring May flowers, right? I hope so... The sun is shining bright today and we can't wait to go outside and play!
