Easter (Caroline's second favorite holiday)

Guess who loves hunting for eggs, candy, and twirling dresses?

This girl!


So much in fact that I don't have many photos of her looking at the camera.  She was hunting, hoarding, sorting, and eating.  








The Potomac Nichols' hosted the egg hunt and it was so fun!  And I cannot get over this crew.


Cracks me up. More from the hunt and festivities.










This baby---man I love her. She is funny.


Then we celebrated Vicki's birthday!




Those two are serious about cake.  

On Sunday we celebrated Greek Easter at Stephanie and Dave's where Uncle Eric taught the kids how to roll down a hill.  Caroline was a big fan.






E hung out with Aunt Shelley.  She had a hard time being around so many people at the party.  But she was happy for a few minutes without me.




Then there was the egg cracking.  I think Eric won again?  I always lose so I have no idea. 


Happy Easter!

EMN 8 months old


Sorry we have been MIA here.  Its been a busy few months.  We've had some end-of-winter illness and pretty redundant days, and honestly I have not picked up my camera as much as I would have liked.  But Eleanor is now 8 months old! So cause for celebration…and photography.


My chubby nugget has four teeth. Two new ones on top.  They are sharp and gappy, just like Caroline's! Her eating has been great when it comes to food, but less so when it comes to milk.  Man does Eleanor get distracted.  It is impossible to feed her when Caroline can be seen or heard or sensed. Our guess is that she weighs 19 lbs.




Eleanor is crawling everywhere.  And cruising.  She is into everything, including Caroline's things.  She likes when people clap and when the music plays "old MacDonald had a farm." I cannot determine what her favorite food is.  Maybe bananas?


We're hoping for a healthy summer. Maybe there will be walking?  Not anytime too soon though.  E gets where she needs to just fine. More to come from our recent weeks!
