Easter


Who would have guessed it was April? It was a very chilly Easter weekend, unfortunately Lillian had to cover up her pretty Easter dress with her heavy winter coat for the Easter Egg Hunt.

Easter morning started early with an egg hunt just for Lillian around the living room. The Easter Bunny hid plastic eggs filled with goldfish, stickers, and quarters around the living room. She had fun with the first few, until she found the cat toy and decided she'd rather play with Forster than hunt for more eggs.

Eka, Auntie La, and Grandpa all came to church with us. Lillian gave everyone in the church a laugh when she decided to play the piano in the front of the church during the children's service. After church was over we all bundled up and headed outside for another egg hunt.

Lillian slept through Easter dinner, but after 4 hours woke up in a better mood and dragged Grandpa and Auntie La out for a short walk.

Nana and Pop Steve, we missed you!

Lots of Babies!


Photo taken by Brenna Jennings

Lillian and I went up to Massachusetts this weekend to go to Auntie Lauren and Auntie Jenn's baby showers. Lillian is going to have 3 cousins by the end of the summer, Lauren is having twin girls and Jenn's baby is going to be a surprise!

Lillian was really a trooper this weekend. Between construction in Hartford and mapquest's determination to send us the wrong way down one way streets, we were in the car for over 4.5 hours on Saturday. She only slept for 40 minutes of the trip, but only cried for 10 minutes before she fell asleep. The rest of the time she was reading her books and playing with her toys.

Brenna, the photographer from my wedding, is friends with Lauren and was at her shower. She took the picture of Lillian above, and I am going to have her take photos of Lillian later this spring or early in the summer.
