Easter Eggs and Happy Babies

Last Sunday Ross and I dyed easter eggs. We had three eggs each to dye and it was awesome. Here are some pictures from our first time dying eggs as a married couple!

My first time being able to write the last name Bateman on my egg.

Ross's cool egg.

My cool egg.

Ross eating another awesome egg. Actually, I think he just wanted to see if he could fit it in his mouth.

Ross and me together!

So something that I learned about my husband is that he does not

like to eat the yolks of hard boiled eggs. So we have finally found something that I will e

at but Ross will not. I don't know if there is anything else that I eat but Ross won't. Aside from mustard and ketchup sandwiches, that is. :)

Oh, and here is a picture of my dear guinea pig, Chuck. Just because I love him.

So on Wednesday, the 20th, Ross and I headed down to Orem where I am now residing. We stopped in Kaysville to visit my family and to give Daniel his birthday present, which was awesome, by the way. I also took my dog Sparky on a walk. Ross and I also had a wonderful time joining my mom's preschool for a while. We got to paint some egg shaped paper and also to sing some dinosaur songs with the kids. Those kids are crazy. Yes indeed they are.

I asked Sparky to pose on the walk and this is what I got.

Here is Sparky on his stool that he loves. I do love that cutie puppy!

After Kaysville Ross and I traveled to Tooele to visit his brother, Jason, and his family. Shalee just had a new baby. His name is Archer Dunn Bateman. And he is stinkin' cute. They were great to feed Ross and I dineras well. I really do love that family. Eli did have a hard time though, he wasn't very happy at dinner time, but Elsie sure was a chatter box. But all she really said was: "Da da da da da da da!" But that is ok, she is still cute.

Here is a picture of Elsie, she wouldn't smile, but that is ok.

Here is Eli on Ross's shoulders, I know it's blurry, but I don't really care.

Here is baby Archer! I think maybe I will nickname him Legolas, because Legolas is awesome and also an archer, although mostly he is a handsome elf.

Here is me holding baby Archer.

Baby Archer isn't sure what he thinks of Ross.

After Tooele, Ross and I went on our way to Orem. It was a nice drive that we went on and it was really fun just to talk for a while. Oh, and hold hands, too. :) We made it to my Aunt Stacie's and Uncle Bill's house around 8:00 and then moved my stuff inside. They sure are fantastic for letting me stay at their place for a while. Their house is gorgeous. They also have a crazy cat named Miles. He is ridiculous and likes to randomly attack my legs. At least he is de-clawed. :) Well, Ross left to head back to Logan around 9 and made it back safely. I really do miss that guy, but I'm also very excited to get started working with the Lone Peak color guard next week! The orientation for try-outs is on Monday, and then clinics and try outs are throughout next week. I'm super excited and I hope I can also find another job. I'm a little nervous, but also excited, for my job interview at a vet clinic on Tuesday. Wish me luck!
