Happy First Easter

This past weekend was Eleanor's first Easter which was very exciting. We shared a wonderful and delicious meal with Carrie's parents... Sue made a yummy ham and Eleanor got her first present from the Easter bunny.

It was a box of plush PEEPS!

Here is Mom helping her to open the Easter basket. She got a dolly, the peeps, a spring jacket, and a onesey. Sadly, no fake plastic grass.

Here she is in the act of dumping it on the floor.

Here we are as a family with the wee rabbit.

Sue shows off the golden ham!

Grandpa is always proud.

Apprehensive about her Easter outfit or simply saying "read me Jamberry already."

Eleanor's first batch of easter eggs. She did a good job.

Eleanor's first Cheerio experience (well organic Cheerio knockoffs but you get the idea.)

Almost got the Alphabet animals pulled out.

Someone now frequently stands up in the crib and "messes about."

Sporting the wonderful new sweater that Mom made along with her Easter hat.

Playing with her new Lamb dolly from Aunt Bobbie.

Sporting her "easter egg" hat that Amber made.

The cousins all together for their first picture in IC.

Eleanor loves the camera.

It was not a simple process as the final product might indicate.

Eleanor was excited to wear her Hawkeye high tops.

We went bowling early in March at Colonial Lanes... Mom smoked Dad in the first game.

Carrie made me a delicious lemon birthday cake.
