Easter

A couple weeks before Easter I made Easter cupcakes and this fun Easter mix because I knew when I went back to work I would not have time to do this. 

Oliver's Easter basket was put together in February... LOL I was a little excited!

Decorations were not put our until a few days before Easter... Thanks Cory!

We dyed eggs Friday night after Oliver went to bed (he can take part next year).  We left them out all night so we had to throw them out. :(

Love this egg crate it can be used for mini cupcakes and eggs!!

I was so looking forward to Easter with my little guy because 2 years ago on Easter I imagined myself being pregnant and with a baby and it took 2 more Easters to get there!

This outfit I bought for him/her not knowing what I would have and I actually got to use it because it was just the right size. 

Then I had to keep getting more and more outfits for Oliver.  I love holidays and they are just even more fun with kids!

 

He also has an outfit with a chocolate bunny on it that says some bunny loves me, one with an easter chick, and his church outfit.

5 Loves & Recap

Here are some favorites that I am enjoying right now~

 

1. Starbucks Tumbler

2. Mason Jar Tumbler, and any tumblers for that matter!

3. Fiber 1 gummies so good!

4. Coconut oil- great for cradle cap and dry skin on Oliver heard its good for many other things too!

5. Fiber 1 brownies, cinnamon cake, etc.  there are only 90 calories and are delicious!!

 

 

Oliver's first baseball game! Spring Training game.

 

 

Magnet board in kitchen used for to do lists, grocery list, and menu for the week!

 

Spa day, booya! Thanks Cory!

 

Oliver's first hike, he slept the whole time he loves his ergo!

 

New Park at Mesa Riverview! Cant wait to take Oliver here when hes big!

 

Basket I made for my mom when she watches Oliver: Diapers, wipes, toys, extra clothes, books, binks, blankets.

 

That is all!

Going back to work :(

Sooo Yes I have to go back to work but its only for 31 days total. I can do this!!

I am sad to have to go back, but it is important for me to get my teaching certificate completely finished.  The way Cory puts it if I just go back to work now instead of having to take more classes and re-apply later I will end up spending more time with Oliver this way. 

More good news my mom is going to be watching him so it will be totally fine! She is going to bring him to me everyday the first 11 days except Tuesday because I do not have an hour break and I can feed him in the parking lot!! Yay! That means I will get to see him and I will only have to pump 2 times that day!

The rest of the time she will bring him Mondays & Wednesdays and sometimes Fridays!! Yipee!! I am a happy mommy!

Also if I start to run low on milk we will make it work, by pumping extra or she will bring him to me more! :)

I am so lucky & blessed to be able to stay home with my little boy and I can not wait until May 23rd when I will be a stay at home momma for good!! (at least for now) Thank you Cory for supporting us! I know that you know how important it is for me to be home with him, and I am so lucky it is working out!

So for now I have 1 more week off of work and a procedure that I have to get done on Monday that I am totally dreading because I will have to pump and dump for 48 hoursish and Oliver will have to have a bottle a lot.  O well! Count your blessings and wish me luck that I am ok. :)
