I was surprised by how much Olivia understood the difference between her basket and Ainsley's basket. I was afraid she would want all of the toys to herself but she was actually really excited to give them to Ainsley.

Ainsley had a very encouraging few days on a Portable Ventilator - you know, the kind that can be used at home but are not called home ventilators - but when we walked in to the hospital today it was just very clear to me that she was feeling terrible. However, she was such a trooper and played with Olivia and laughed and smiled for a few pics - you know, before she went directly down the respiratory shitter.

I tried to post this before... and it's not showing up. So if it shows up twice later, sorry. :/
I'm just wondering what is different between the portable vent and the hospital one that works so well for her?
Also, wondering how your pregnancy is going?
I ate all the candy from the eggs too. I plan to make sure I do this every year in the hopes that she will think that is just what we do with it. (I do not expect this to actually work.)
So glad to see you had a lovely day. The baskets are so cute and the girls looked so adorable!
You look fabulous!
Adorable family pic! You look fab, momma.
Olivia and Ainsley look so cute together. I love how they are holding hands. You may want to frame that picture!
Ohhh those pottery barn baskets and liners...DH had to talk me down from them, but I'm hoping one of these days.
What a happy looking family (even Miss O and her don't take a picture of me face)!
5 is still appropriate for me to eat all the candy, right? Because the kid gets crazy with too much sugar...
The girls are adorable.
What is the longest a child has stayed in the hospital without going home?
I'm wondering if your little meatloaf is going to make any records. I think that is what she is trying to do. She wants to have the most consecutive days in the hospital and she wants to make sure to make it long enough so that her record can't be beaten anytime soon.
Oh yes, definitely eat her candy. I let my 4-yo have at it with hers. Her 3-yo buddy came over for dinner and he'd had his candy too. Sooo... after dinner he blew out his outfit with poop, and so we put them in the tub together, and then she blew up the tub with her poop. Too much candy on Easter = bad bad bad for little munchkins. At least in the explosive poop department. So yes, definitely eat her jelly beans!
Ha, I call my chubby baby "pork roast", so the meatloaf / side of beef comments are cracking me up. Cutesy easter baskets ever.
Olivia's expression in that family pic is too funny! Love it!
Totally oversharing but...
Soooo... I was cheap and didn't even put anything in the plastic eggs that we put out for the egg hunt! Haha! The girls are 21 months, I wasn't even sure they would "get" the whole hunting for eggs thing, but sure enough they did. And they totally cracked open those eggs, and I just KNOW they were thinking, "WTH, mom? Could you BE any cheaper?" Ha!
I did give them peeps and cupcakes though. Also, I get brownie points for having to hose down Lauren's blue icing and every article of fabric within 50 miles with a fire hose. :)
We have the same Easter baskets for our three. They were expensive but at least they will last a long time. I also got the liners with their names on them. I wish I had seen those pillow pets!
