Picture Overload

My chord for my camera went missing about 4 months ago and has just now resurfaced....so lucky you....you get to view a bunch of pictures from Valentines, St. Patrick's and now Easter.

Hayden and Gavin with their gifts from "Cupid"




We made a big breakfast for Valentine's Day complete with heart shaped pancakes



The Boys on St. Patrick's Day



These are the cupcakes I made for our party that day.




This is most of the Stewart grandchildren dancing an Irish jig. They were supposed to dance through all 4 minutes of the song without stopping to get a prize.



At the end of the party the kiddos had to go on a search for these adorable treats Maren made. (the leprechaun stole them)



We had a really fun Easter this year watching General Conference, going to family's houses, Easter egg hunts, visits from the good ol' Easter bunny, food and fun. It all began on Good Friday when we dyed Easter eggs







Saturday night - putting our baskets out for Peter Cottontail




Sunday morning after Peter came





Here they are digging into their baskets





Hayden and Gavin got to decorate their own egg cupcakes made by Grandma Heap. They loved it.



They also got some balloon swords




The Boys with Great Grandma Ellie (Denise's mom)



The Boys on one of 3 Easter Egg hunts.




We really did have a blast....thanks to all those who contributed in making this such a fun day for my boys...and us!

Famous!

Let me set the scene: Sunday after church - Gavin, Hayden and Daddy walking down the hall. They walk past Brother Garn (counselor in the Bishopric)

Bro. Garn: Hi Gavin how are you?
Gavin: I'm fine. Wait, how do you know my name?
Bro. Garn: Oh I know who you are!

They walk away
Gavin: He knows me because I'm famous.

Latest

This is my latest cake creation....



Love how it turned out. This was for my nieces 7th birthday party...she had a movie night. Those are actually mini cupcakes with popcorn made out of marshmallows on top. Took me about 5 hours to make but it was so worth it.

Feeling Calmer Today

So, I should probably apologize for my rant yesterday. Justin was kind of irritated with the post saying that I was giving the wrong impression of myself. I hope you all don't think less of me. If any of you are like me though, you know that as a mom, there are just days like that. It's not often that it happens, but everyone once in a while I get a little short tempered, that's all. Anyway, I apologize if I seemed less then composed. I really do love my life and my children...I wouldn't want things to be any other way!

Beware....don't ignite!!!

My fuse is reeeeaaaallllyy short today!



And I 'm trying really hard not to blow up. The kids are being particularly whiny and more dependent than usual as if they can't do anything for themselves. They are making messes left and right and if I hear "mom" one more time, I might just lose it.



I swear there is some hole in the universe that is sucking up all of my stuff because I can't find the things I'm looking for which means my house is in major need of some Spring Cleaning. But do I have time for that? Of course not, because I have 2 kids and a job and laundry coming out my ears and there are never enough hours in the day.



Yes my friends, my fuse is short...and I feel horrible for it. I yell more at my kids, I don't get anything done because my brain feels jumbled, and I'm just praying for a new day so I can start over. So until tomorrow, beware the fuse!!!
