Happy Easter

This year's Easter was a great day. We only went to 2 places which was nice as it gave us more time to enjoy the day and relax. The only problem was that on Saturday night our hot water heater quit working therefore not allowing us to fix it until Sunday night. We ended up skipping church and taking hot showers at the Hansons. We gave the kids their Easter baskets right away in the morning and they really enjoyed them!!
Cooper is up to 8 teeth now. I think he is working on even more teeth but I can't tell for sure. He has taken 2 steps for his daddy and 1 step for me. I keep waiting for the day that he just decides to take off walking. We have lots of different toys with wheels that he can push around so I think he gets around so well that it isn't pushing him to try and walk on his own.
Josie is almost fully potty trained. She is doing so good with telling us when she needs to go. We haven't had any accidents in several weeks now!!! She is also going diaper less for nap time but still wears them at night. If she needs to wear diapers at night for awhile I am fine with that. Anytime she goes poop on the potty she gets to put makeup on. We started doing that as a reward, since she didn't want candy(she's not much of a sweets girl), but now she just loves putting makeup on. Here are some pics of her makeup!!!
We planted out potatoes in the garden last weekend but they haven't come up yet. Cooper loves playing in the dirt and Josie was doing a great job putting the potatoes in the holes and covering them up. They had a blast outside in the garden. We are already spending most of our days outside since it is so nice out.
