Mike's Birthday, Easter eggs and Big Girl Bed

We have a lot to catch up on before we leave for ITALY!!!  Here are some happenings in the Manes' house the last few weeks....
Silly faces



 Sunday we celebrated Mike's birthday and Jackson claimed the wish was his since he helped blow out the candles. 
 Also on Sunday was our neighborhood Easter Egg Hunt.  Great for us since we are missing Easter with the kids this year (bad flight planning on our part).  This helped me to feel not so guilty.  It was slightly windy though (Anna lost her basket AND eggs several times)
 Ready to find eggs
 Girl on a mission (especially when she figured out there were jelly beans in them)
 Showing off their loot
 And about 6 weeks ago (I think----I'm losing count) we moved Anna out of her crib into her big girl bed.  She looks really tiny in it but so far she's loved it.  We even painted her room pink, got new curtains and a fancy chalendier!  When she's a little older we'll add some more furniture but for now it works great
 Big girl bed!!
 Fast asleep
 And sadly Anna's allergies got the best of her about a week ago and it was crazy meds and breathing treatments.  She took it like a champ and Jackson was right beside her the whole way (of course)!

Beautiful April weekend

We had a beautiful weekend and spent most of it outside enjoying the nice 80 degree weather
