Easter on Saturday

 Owen loves holidays. He is already asking which one is next. He gets so excited that when the day passes he fights it and says it will happen again tomorrow, so I end up telling him the next holiday that is coming, even though its far off. He had his eye on this pirate bubble ship for a while and couldn't wait to enjoy it.

 With such nice weather the littles played outside for a good part of the day. Chasing bubbles, jumping on the trampoline and Owen went swimming with the older cousins.

 Lily was in her element outside, running, jumping and giggling. Such a cute girl!

We colored easter eggs with Grandma, which Owen had never done before. Then I did a little candy egg hunt inside the house and Owen was a happy kid. He ran around so much this weekend that it got his asthma going again. He wheezes but there is no crackling in his chest, so we just used an albuterol inhaler for him. I hope it doesn't get worse becuase his allergies sure have. He used to be able to play with Grandma's little dachshund and only get a few red dots on his face but this time around he had red welts on his cheeks and puffy eyes within minutes. Bummer. He loves that dog and is very aware of his allergic reactions after the cashew episode. So he had to restrain himself from hugging his face against the dog, Draco and kept reminding me that he had to be careful or he would get all itchy. Owen is such a smart kid and it is so easy to reason with him and teach him things. He throws his fits and makes his really sad face but it doesn't last long. He is very optimistic and always looking forward to the fun things in life, whether its time at the park with just me or a trip to see all the great family that loves him.
