Easter: A Photo Blog

I've had so much going on with our life that I've not had a chance to even try and focus on blogging. For those of you who are following my Dad, he's been in the hospital for two weeks now, spending 3 of those days in ICU. We live day by day.  We're still awaiting an answer on whether or not a transplant will be a good option. Grant has been a little trooper, making friends with the front desk people. Yesterday he told the black "jazz" guy (he always streams jazz into his computer)that his BALD WHITE superhero looked like the him. Ummm, great. The guy was nice about it, even gave him a Candyland playing piece....not sure why he had that at his desk, but whatever.

So here's Easter:

Grant's behind the lady crouched down with the camera
Palm Sunday was good. We met Nanny at church and Grant marched in with his palm. Notice I got a really bad picture of this. Camera problems. Well, really, me problems. I started watching him instead of photographing him. He had just gotten over an ear infection and he completely captured my attention because he had his hands over his ears while still holding the palm. I was trying to get him to stop it and wave. So, you got a good picture of Mr. Morgan instead.







I only had 7 Eggs. It worked. That's about his attention span anyway.

Easter day was a rainy, chaotic mess. I overslept *totally unlike me* and Grant didn't want to get ready. We made it church just in time to run right into Brooke's family, who was also too late for a GOOD seat at service. We all ended up in the overflow room. I was entertained by Laine and Brooke the whole time. Apparently grant wrestled with Ron Shinn in the kindergarten room and before you knew it, church was over. We fast tracked it to the hospital to see Dad then to the Tucker's for an Egg Hunt. With Eddie Jane.
He was not pleased with the ears

Umm, yeah, this picture never did really happen. Notice Grant's cheerful face.....

Super excited...about flower seeds? yup.
He wanted to plant right away.
Is he my kid, or what?

Of course Nathan is at the kid table

We ran out of there to go back tot he hospital to see Dad again and give Nanny time to hide the eggs at her house. Of course, I was done with the camera at this point. So no images there. I will say Grant had a blast at Nanny's, found tons of eggs and got his favorite new toy, a Scorpion Helicopter with a guy in it. He has taken everywhere we have gone all week. Thanks, Nanny, for such an excellent time consuming toy.
 We proceeded on to Jane's where Grant ate nothing and played  ran with Luke all over Jane's house.  After our last trip to the hospital after Jane's, we went home and crashed hard, both of us. I think there needs to be a recovery Monday after Easter holiday as well.
