Happy Easter to everyone who celebrates! We celebrated Easter today with baskets, suave new clothes, candy, presents, food, family, and even an Easter egg hunt, which we could finally do outside!! Alex celebrated his 2nd Easter by waking up to two Easter baskets. One from Mommy and Daddy and one from Nana and Pap. He is starting to sort of notice presents now and at least starting picking things out of the basket and throwing them! Then we dressed him up in his handsome Easter outfit (linen khaki pin-striped pants, a coral colored sweater vest over a white linen button down, and a pastel colored neck tie--I give all my credit to CP!). We traveled down to Dundalk to eat breakfast and spend the morning with Alex's Lola, Aunties, Uncles, and Cousins. First we ate a delicious breakfast of potato casserole, ham, sausage and egg casserole. cinnamon rolls, and a sausage and egg ball. Then, we took the party outside for a fun Easter egg hunt for the kids! Dylan, Daniel and Matthew took off and had a ton of fun. Julia watched form his Daddy's arms, and Alex, since he's only 13 months, just kind of stood in one spot with his basket and picked his eggs up and threw them back down. We then went in and exchanged some Easter presents, and all of the kids got some really nice stuff-- Cute clothes and cool summer toys! We then ran about a million errands with Abe's mom. We were really excited to get a lawn mower. It's the manual push kind, no gas or electric, but at least we're going GREEN. We also are grasping at straws trying to get Alex to graduate out of our bed, so we bought his own toddler bed. I know he's barely 1, but he hates his crib, with a passion, and since he already sleeps in our adult bed, which is like 4 feet off the floor, we figured it couldn't hurt to try! We're going to start by putting the bed in our room, but at least getting him out of our bed and into his own. I'll post some pics of it when it gets put together. Bless Abe--he's working on it now and the curse words are starting to fly. With that being said, I better go and help him! Hope everyone had a great Easter and spring break for those of you who had yours this week!
