Easter preview...

I just wanted to post some pictures of Clark in his Easter outfit. Isn't it cute? Thanks to his Aunt Paula and Uncle Jay...they spoiled him with that cute outfit. He was a riot when I was trying to get a few pictures...he would pose this way and that wanting me to take his picture. I am going to take Ali and Clark to a nice park soon for Easter pictures. I thought about going to the mall, then thought, heck I will just take them myself. Ali didn't want an Easter dress this year...she is growing up. She hates dressing up...she prefers to wear simple skirts to church. So that is what she chose...a skirt and top...not even Easter looking, but that's ok!

This weekend in our community there is a huge Easter extravaganza of sorts. There are craft booths, Easter egg hunt, the bunny will be there for pictures, inflatable things to jump in, a firetruck will be there along with the EMS and a SWAT team. Clark will love all that stuff and Ali is just glad the egg hunt goes up to age 12! Ha! She hates getting left out of getting free candy...heehee! Should be fun for them and I sure hope the weather is nice.

We found out yesterday that Clark still has giardia. I did a little research digging on my own and discovered the pharmacy gave him the wrong medicine last time. Long story...we were traveling and the order was called into a pharmacy in Indiana. I think there must have been a mix up along the way. Anyway, he didn't end up taking the correct medicine and therefore still has giardia. I am going to pick up the CORRECT medicine today and please pray that this gets rid of it once and for all. Another prayer request at the moment is that we are able to get him into the preschool at the school right down the street from us (for the fall). It is only available to children with English as a second language and he has to take some language test to be accepted. I explained to the teacher that his language is definitely behind and she said that she can test him in April. I hope he gets accepted. It is free (and free is always GREAT) and would be so good for him! It is for kids just moving to the states from other countries and are behind with language. I also have been in contact with the speech department for the school district. They are going to evaluate him and see if he might need speech therapy. They don't have any appointments available right now, but said it shouldn't be that long.

Well, that is about it right now. Enjoy the photos..we think he is pretty much too cute for words! The photos of the eggs are beautiful hand painted eggs from Ukraine. You can get them made out of wood or actual real eggs blown out. I only brought home one real egg as I didn't know how they would travel. However, the painting is gorgeous on them all. We love to have things out during the holidays to remind us of Clark's birth country.
