Baby Hannah has arrived!!

Caroline officially became a big sister on Tuesday, April 21 at 3:39 pm when baby sister Hannah Kay Von Gunten was born. She is beautiful and Mommy and Daddy and Caroline couldn't be happier. We are home from the hospital now and trying (and I say that very loosely) to try and catch up on some lost sleep. Caroline is in love and always wanting to see "Baby Hannah" and touch her and change her diaper and kiss her all over. Enjoy the pictures! (Thank you Sonia for the video idea!)

Happy Easter!!

Easter was a beautiful Sunday here and we started the day with an Easter Egg Hunt at home. Caroline loved looking for the eggs and kept asking for more! We went to church where I got sympathy seating for my 39 week pregnant belly and carrying my 2 year old (part of our plan)! Then we came home and had a little Easter egg hunt in our front yard with our neighbors -- it was very cute. Caroline did not quite get that there were things inside the eggs but the other kids did. We ended the day with dinner at Laurie and Crispin's. It was a great day!

I got the Golden Egg....!!

This past weekend we took Caroline to an Easter celebration at the local harbor. She was a little hesitant at first but then she decided that it was actually fun. She rode the little ponies (which is a huge step since she seems to be afraid of animals lately), did the sing along and participated in the Easter Egg Hunt. I wasn't sure how she would do with this concept either but I knew it wouldn't be a problem as we stood at the starting line and she kept saying, "Ready to hunt eggs, ready to hunt eggs". And ready to hunt she was. She was so excited picking up all the eggs she could find including finding the big Golden Egg that Mommy and Daddy didn't even see hidden. She was so proud of herself and apparently it showed as she got her picture featured on the front page of our local paper. What proud parents we are!! Enjoy the pictures we took and the link to the newspaper article. http://www.venturacountystar.com/news/2009/apr/05/nxxwcnpcottontail05/
