We had a very nice Easter weekend. We colored eggs on Saturday. I spoke in church on Sunday and the Easter Bunny brought toys for the boys. A friend of mine, Sharon, which I met at story time at the library, invited us over for dinner. The food was fabulous and we enjoyed chatting while the kids played. I’m going to be watching her kids during the day Monday through Thursday this week so it was good to spend some time with them too.
Wednesday morning Brian got an email from NMU informing him that school was cancelled due to the lovely blizzard we were having. They ended up canceling Thursday classes also. The winter storm warning didn’t end until 8 a.m. this morning. Brian’s used the snow blower more this week than the whole winter.
A miraculous event occurred in our house this week, Grant slept through the night! He’s done it a few times in a row, so we hope it lasts.
One night while Jackson was in bed, he randomly asked for a little stuffed bear that Grant had in his crib. He cuddled up with it and went to sleep. The next day he carried it around, I asked him what its name was and he said, “Captain Robert McMillan” (Robert is Jackson’s middle name).
Jackson has coined a new word this week: “I amn’t” (meaning I am not). He’s used it a few times when he’s upset and it’s really difficult to keep a straight face.
Brian made the front page of The Mining Journal (our local newspaper) this week. The paper covered the new Marquette High School newspaper and since Brian’s the advisor he got his picture on the front page! Here’s the link to the article but unfortunately the pictures of Brian are not on the webpage. http://www.miningjournal.net/stories/articles.asp?articleID=13346
