April Update

Reed loves to watch out the windows in the front of our house. He knows when all the neighbors are coming and going.










These pictures are before Reed's hair cut. It was getting to be too long. I love the curls but...










This picture is taken after the hair cut. He loves to play with the plastic eggs the Easter Bunny brought him. Who knew those would be so fun? He loves to stick it in his mouth and crawl around looking like a bird.













Reed found the Easter basket the Easter Bunny brought for him. Thanks goodness the Easter Bunny didn't bring too much candy. He brought a bubble maker, one chocolate bunny and a Wiggle dvd. Reed is totally focused when it comes to watching the Wiggles. He will sit and watch them without losing interest through almost the entire 45 minute show. We only had one to watch and I was about to lose it if I had to see it again.



















The Easter Bunny brought a chocolate bunny and we had to get pictures of him eating it and making the mess that goes along with it. He seemed to like it. Auntie Holly gave him the shirt he is wearing which says "chicks dig me". Jason I and think this could be a problem in the future with Reed and the "chicks".









Jason and I took Reed to the park near our house. He went down the slide and loved it. But he loved playing and crawling in the rocks better.


Jason's Corner
A topic totally not related to Reed at all but something significant to our family is...

Jason has been with United Product for 11 years this March. He joined several others in the company this past weekend in a ring ceremony to celebrate the length of time with the company. It is a big deal for them. After you have been with the company for 10 years you receive a ring from the owners. Each additional 5 years they add something to the ring and present it to you again in the ceremony. It is definitely an accomplishment to be proud of. This is the second year they have asked for pictures of each employee (from a baby to an adult) getting a ring and put them in the slide show. When presented with the ring they usually give a speech. Jason was sent a letter the week before he was to receive his ring saying he needed to keep his speech under 2 minutes. Jason found that difficult to do. (haha) He is a man of few words. I felt he did a nice job and was very professional. But short and to the point. The pictures are kind of dark and it was a wild west theme (hence the cowboy hat in the front row) so it is hard to see. Jason (10) along with Kenny Mac (10), Berkman(15), Lanie (15), Rummel(25?), Pat Marcy (25?) and Charlene (45 and the co-owner of UPC) were all presented with rings this year. Congrats Jason!
