Happy Easter!

Caleb enjoyed coloring eggs for Easter with Keanan and Abby. He also enjoyed an Easter egg hunt last night with friends, but was a little unsure when 2 excited kids pulled him from his bed this AM and expected him to be as excited as they about hunting for baskets and eggs! He enjoyed the toy from his basket and we have discovered that his favorite candies are gummy bears and m&m's (basically chocolate)!
After his shots last week and knowing that he has several Dr appointments this month, we have decided to postpone his surgery on his palate. He seems to be doing really well fitting into the family, and I want him to have his time to feel secure and not like he is constantly being poked and prodded.
We are using some sign language with him and he is picking it up really fast and using it with some prompting. He has communicated with gestures for so long though, that is still his main communication. He can make some of the funniest faces and do some really goofy eye things! Of course the kids laugh and so, why change that?
After church, Grandma and Grandpa came over for lunch (which they brought most of!). We had planned for them to come here, as Brett is on-call. The way things turned out, we could have just as well traveled to Colman, as Brett spent the day at the hospital. We had a nice meal here; and then after Caleb's nap, took the dog for a walk and the kids played on the playground in the park.
The kids are really good for Caleb. He is a "pain" already at times, but then the next second, "he is so cute and funny"; they just can't resist him!
We hope that everyone had a nice Easter holiday and were able to spend time with friends and family!
Jesus Christ has risen indeed! Happy Easter!
