Easter

I finally found my camera after 2 weeks of looking for it. So I missed a lot of picture opportunities dang it. Easter weekend was full of activities, but I have to start the week before. On Wednesday I got my gall bladder taken out, it wasn't too bad, I have 3 incisions below my rib cage and then one below my belly button. I guess gall stone are pretty common to get during pregnancy and of course I ended up getting them, so my doctor recommended that I have my gall bladder removed to prevent the horrible attacks I was getting. So when I came out of surgery, I was pretty drugged up. They gave me some pain medication to help with the pain, and I was hoping that Tale would take a bottle so that I could load up on them, but of course he wouldn't, so I had to feed him. The first day was really awkward because I had to hold him in a different position because of my incisions and he didn't like it very much, but he adjusted. He was soo sleepy that whole night, I'm pretty sure from all the drugs, so I stopped taking my pain medication because it worried me so much. And that wasn't very fun, oh the things we will do for our children right? And the toll pregnancy takes on one's body, geez! :)
For easter weekend we had some friends from California come to visit, it was so nice to have them over, but it hurt so bad to laugh and that is what we did the most of. :) My niece Tilera got baptized that saturday and then on Sunday her baby brother had his blessing. So we had a ton of family in town, and it was a blast laughing, singing, swimming, and just hanging out with them. Of course I was still recovering so I couldn't participate in all of the activities :(. So since I didn't have my camera I don't really have pictures from the weekend. But I do have some new ones of Tale.
He is wondering what the red light is flashing on his face, :) (its the flash)
Okay so how cute is his smile here, oh i just love it, as you can tell i'm out of focus, not a very good picture taker!!! er!


Again he is giving me the look like what are you doing mommy? ha! but wanted to show he still has his beautiful blue eyes.

A few weekends ago we went to salt lake for my uncles wedding, my grandparents flew in from Samoa, and i just love this picture of my grandfather and Tale. This is their 3rd great grandson, they have 5 great grandchildren so far.
