Easter 2011

Easter weekend was fun and very busy!



 Coloring eggs-

 Easter morning-
Both kids were up by 6:00...hooray! Abbey was worried at first that the Bunny didn't come to our house because she didn't see anything in the front room. Once we figured out that he probably came to the basement, things started to improve. Abbey got a Dora basket with a coloring book, puzzle, a picture frame to paint, and three small packages of candy. Owen got a soccer basket with a toy remote and microphone. They also hunted for eggs that were filled with jelly beans and the huge hit of the day.....marshmallows shaped like bunnies!







 Owen is hoping that Abbey will be distracted long enough for him to snag a jelly bean!
 Grandma, Aunt Kim, and Aunt Jenny came over for a brunch of egg casserole, french toast, ham, fruit, muffins, and banana bread. They brought the kids the sweetest gifts! Grandma gave Abbey a sleeping bag for her baby-she currently has her room set up for both of them to sleep in sleeping bags tonight. Grandma also gave the kids pajamas and new clothes. Aunt Kim and Aunt Jenny gave the kids a few toys and a little bit of candy. They were absolutely thrilled!

 Grandma's famous lamb cake-

 An outfit change-
 Aunt Kim and Aunt Jenny made an egg hunt for Abbey in the yard-

What a special weekend!

Abbey has a blog!

After some pressure (you know who you are!) Mark and Beth have created a blog for Abbey. It's hard to believe that she is almost 13 months old by now and how fast this last year has gone. Abbey is taking many steps at a time these days along with her crawling. Her words include da-da, uh-oh, hi, hi charlie, and possibly thank you....notice that ma-ma isn't included in her list yet! I don't take it personally-I get all of the hugs and kisses a mommy could ask for from this sweet baby. Being a teacher is awesome because I'm able to get a taste of being a stay at home mom in the summer. Abbey loves to play with her toys and dog Charlie, tear things apart, pull on the toilet paper roll, climb anything she can get her little hands and feet on, push her shopping cart, go into the pantry, among other fun games:) We adore her and will try to add to this blog weekly to share her with you!
