Okay, most recent to a week before Easter. Chris and Nixon were having a fun time. I think Nixon was having more fun than Chris though.

A picture of Nixon above!
Above: Nixon was drawing a picture and brought it to me and told me it was Wolverine with his claws out and his name! I was so impressed. It is the first time he has ever written his name without help from me. It was so cute.
Our Easter egg hunt with our cousins at our house! We hid a lot of eggs. Bryton is above, managing to fill 1 basket.
Nixon and Bryton above. Kymry below managed to fill her basket 4 times!!!!!!
Nixon, below filled his basket 2 times!!!!
As you can see, Kymry was really racing against the boys!!!

Kymry. Bryton, and Nixon dying Easter eggs.
We went to the city Easter egg hunt too. Kyrmy had to go in the one for the 10 year olds so she is not in this picture. Maddy, unfortunately had ANOTHER trampoline accident last Monday, so she was still not walking on Saturday. Maddy and Nixon were jumping and they jumped at the same time, her feet came out from under her. It didn't look like it would hurt, she just slipped. I took her in and they did x-rays, and nothing was broken. She didn't start walking, or should I say limping until Wednesday of this week so a week and a half. So I took her to this hunt and had to carry her and bend over to let her grab the eggs. It was pretty exhausting. The almost two weeks have been interesting. She at first was completely immobile and was moved only by me. After about 2 days she crawled on one knee trying not to drag the injured leg. She also would get around by lying on her back and pushing herself with the good leg. It was very sad. I am so happy she is mobile again.

Nixon enjoyed riding to the top of a hill and coasting down millions of times!!!
Maddy thought she was pretty cool in her shades!
Well this week we had another doctor appointment for the ear infection. She still has fluid in her ears. I have a hearing appointment in 2 more weeks and if they find fluid still, she will be getting tubes put in her ears. Because of her slight hearing impairment, they want to get the fluid out sooner than they normally would. We don't want anymore damage in the bad ear! And she is still not talking, which could be further delayed by fluid. We hope we can avoid the tubes! I didn't realize the tubes are kept in for 9 months and we can't swim! We will go crazy. I take the kids swimming once a week!!!!
