April Update

April has been a fun month so far!  Shawn had spring break the Thursday, Friday, and Monday surrounding Easter so we were able to spend time together as a family.  The weather was great, so we took advantage and went for walks around the neighborhood.  Jackson enjoyed looking around at everything!  Shawn also had fun working on the yard.

We had a really fun Easter!  Jackson got an Easter package from Grandma Brown with a book and some clothes.  We also had the Stuarts and the Kaouks (Shawn's sister's family) over.  We had a really good Easter dinner and then went outside in the backyard so the kids could have an Easter egg hunt.  Afterwards they flew kites and blew bubbles.  Arianna and Isabel loved blowing bubbles and Tommy and Efram loved popping them!

Why doesn't it work for me?

When Jackson is being especially unruly, how is it that he can smile at me or Courtney and all is forgiven and forgotten. However, when I do something wrong there is no way a smile will get me in the good graces of Courtney quite like Jackson can. Just saying, not fair!

Can you see Jackson?!


It may be hard to see him but if you look right in the middle you might just catch him. He's sporting camo and just disappears into his background. We have to be careful when he wears this outfit, we tend to lose him a lot if he doesn't make any sounds!!
