Easter 09, and a little over 6 months preggo

Happy Easter! It was a good one of course! Lots of family and food! I had given up Candy bars for the forty days of Lent before Easter, so needless to say, I overindulged quite a bit on Reese's and Snicker's eggs, but so worth it!!

Jake had to work another Holiday, but we kind of celebrated Saturday so he could be a little part of some festivities. Ben got some candy and a booster seat as his present. Now he will sit at the table like a big boy with Mom and Dad! He loves it, and I couldn't really get him out of it for a while yesterday. I am little over six months preggo too, and things are going great. Here are just a few pics:
First is "set up" for family photo opp:

Ben's new favorite thing is to find things to jump from.
