Celebrating Easter

Celebrating Easter this year kind of started off with a bumpy road....We headed down to Macon on Good Friday morning and just before we left Gracie started complaining of her eye hurting. Needless to say she SCREAMED the entire trip to Macon. As soon as we arrived we took her to pediatrics after hours and the doctor thought she most likely had pink eye and gave us some eye drops and she seemed to feel better within a couple of hours. Preston and I planned to celebrate our 6 year anniversary on Saturday night in Macon since grandma and grandpa volunteered to babysit. On Saturday morning Bailey woke up with a stomach ache and he complained all day until late in the evening. Saturday night we were on the phone with our pediatrician until Bailey finally fell asleep. Preston and I found ourselves holding a sick baby while enjoying a glass of wine and a bag of chex mix. It wasn't exactly how we had planned to celebrate our anniversary but we have learned to make adjustments since becoming parents of twins. We had two Easter celebrations. The first was on Saturday and we had a cookout with all the little cousins and did an outdoor Easter Hunt. The twins also enjoyed dying eggs for the first time. They chose to color their eggs with crayons before dunking them in the dye. On Sunday we enjoyed casseroles with Aunt Lala's family and our gma and gpa Grace. The Easter Bunny left baskets of goodies and the kiddos had fun playing with their cousins. At the end of the Easter Celebration I honestly have to say that Preston and I were looking forward to heading to Beach early at 2am after a rough start to our holiday vacation!
