Easter 2012

Easter morning! You finally arrive.
The boys woke up around 6:30am and found their baskets. Then they woke up their sister who was sleeping in my bed, with promises of Cadbury Creme Eggs. (The Easter Bunny of course brings 4-packs of the delicious eggs every year!) Problem this year is that I underestimated Wiggy's ability to get the foil off the eggs...so quickly. She had consumed three eggs in less than 5 minutes.
Breakfast was served!!
I did try to serve the kids a real breakfast but it was eatn half heartedly. The kids had to wait for dad to wake up before they went to search for eggs. It was the longest two hours of their lives!!








 






















We took some family pictures before church. We clean up real nice... I think! :) We got the boys new suits a few weeks ago and they are just a tad too big...which is good because they are growing like stink weeds! :)
















Wiggy lasted about ten minutes of Sacrament. She was borderline violent and I think her morning diet had come crashing down on her. Luke ended up leaving with her during Sacrament--and she fell asleep in the Jeep within seconds of getting in her car seat. Oh Wiggy!!









After church Luke's parents, brother and cousin Kylee came over for dinner. Grandma made a chocolate cakeand it was a hit.











Wiggy did model for us during dinner, with the help of cousin Kylee.

That Stop Wasn't On My Itinerary....

So the Hogue's made it to Florida for our first official family vacation. It was Sawyer's first plane ride....and Simon's first plane ride that he can remember. We were excited....the boys were stoked. We had everything we needed! But it seems that Sawyer packed something with him that wasn't on our checklist: a big case of pneumonia. Yes, the little fella made it almost one whole day in Florida before he started heading downhill fast. Our 2nd day in Orlando we were in the Urgent Care south of Cocoa Beach. (By the way, to see a doctor more quickly, it helps if you vomit all over the waiting room in front of the receptionist. Little tip for ya) After chest x-rays they advised us to head to the ER in Melbourne, where they eventually admitted him to the hospital. So, we had 3 night deluxe accommadations at the Holmes Regional Medical Center. The little whipper snapper was a trooper though! The nurses loved him, thankfully, and made us all feel right at home. We were going to send postcards out with pictures of the hospital since we spent 40% of our trip there...but they didn't have any. Imagine that!Hmmm.....maybe its something they should consider.
