Easter Baby!


With a week of spring break already gone we are in the home stretch of the school year. During the break we were able to snuggle lots and play. The Bel also had a busy social schedule as our break included Holy week and lots of family time.

We stayed home for the first part of the week and played toys, played with Karamia and took nice long naps. On Wednesday we went to visit Sandra (Bels future MIL) who just had surgery on her knee.

Thursday we went to have lunch with Grandma JJ and Daddy and Auntie Jen and Lauren joined us there. From there we headed home to wait for Grandma Leann who was able to see the LO for the first time since Uncle and Auntie's wedding. She was able to see what a big girl Bel has become. Later that evening we headed down for Holy Thursday Mass and by the time we got home and the baby ready for bed it was 11:00pm.

Friday was another interesting day as DM came home from work at 9am with the flu! Yikes! He was able to rest as the Bel had a "photo shoot" with her cousins. We met Grandpa D and Auntie Jen with the girls and away they went! We got some wonderful shots of the girls for Grandpa and Grandma and a couple to share with Great-Grandma too. We were unable to attend Good Friday mass with DM sick, but I was able to sneak away for a night out with the crew from school leaving DM in bed sick and Bel in bed asleep.

Saturday was a better day as DM was feeling a little better and I was able to run a couple of errands with out Bel. When I came home the Bel and I got ready for dinner at Grandpa George's and Grandma Sandie's without DM who was getting in bed as we were leaving. We had a wonderful dinner and fun play time with Grandma and Grandpa before Grandpa headed to church for choir. Bel, Grandma Sandie and I headed to church a short while after and met Uncle Doug and Auntie Stacey who were waiting for us there. Little pumpkin stayed awake the entire Easter Vigil Mass... 2 1/2 hours! Bel and I headed home and got to bed around 11:30pm and off to bed she went.

Sunday morning we opened Bel's basket from the Easter bunny and got ready for lunch with Great-Grandma, Auntie Jen, Uncle Nate, Ella, Lauren, Grandpa D and Grandma JJ. After lunch we spent the afternoon at Grandma and Grandpa so the girls could play and get their baskets that the bunny left there for them. We all had a busy weekend so we headed home to do laundry and to watch Big Brother.
