Easter photo dump

Happy/Hoppy Easter!

This little one loved getting into everyone's baskets

Decorating Eggs

 
Overflow seating at Sunday morning service (thank GOD the rain stopped in time!)

More concerned that her hat was on straight than watching the road 


Tractors are a boy's best friend 

Egg Hunting 



Stephen paid for his flight with his loot from the hunts! 

Hey, Bunny! Bunny!

Easter wouldn't be Easter without some family competition; 

Or music to accompany everyone; 

Or launching raw eggs at the losers on the tractors. 

Happy FIRST Easter to Hattie!


And to all, from our family to yours.  
And thank you to Christ, who paid the ultimate price for us.  To HIM be all the glory and praise.

Hattie: 7 Months



Our Hattie girl is 7 months.
What's new with her...
- She crawls like crazy.  Can follow you from room to room.
- She finally can sit up unassisted.
- She never wants to be on her back, or sitting still for long.
- She babbles, and blows bubbles, and laughs (although that has been a constant since month one).
- She can get pretty feisty on certain occasions--crying if you show her a bottle, take away food or a toy, or if she's overtired.
- She laughs at almost everything Liam does, and she watches him like a hawk (not sure if that is interest in what he is doing or fear that he might do something to her)
- She's still being a pretty regular sleeper through the night (and my sanity is slowly returning)
- She's eating an assortment of food: Sweet potatoes, egg yolks, chicken and steak, asparagus, avocado, green beans, and bananas.  She likes most of it. And while she will eat it, she still makes a grossed out face when she tastes egg.

We think she is the sweetest gal around.

Overwhelmed

I am so overwhelmed with love for these two.  I am not overwhelmed with love for the process of pictures at the mall.  

But, regardless, I want to freeze these moments in time and a million moments everyday.

Hattie: 6 Months





Six months.
She crawls.
She eats a ton.
She FINALLY sleeps through the night.
She giggles and smiles relentlessly.

She's perfectly wonderful.  Our Happy Hattie at six months.
