We started our Easter morning with a full basket from the Easter Bunny!
It was filled with spring clothes, books, a new kind of sippy cup, movies, eggs filled with goodies, jammies, a phone, and James’ first chocolate Easter bunny!
All James really cared about were the books.
We read for a bit then, dug in for the goodies. And then, we got really excited. :)
Before we knew it, it was time to get ready for church! I’ve kind of given up on getting a church picture of Justin and James, but I did try to snap one of James beforehand. It sure is hard now that he’s moving!
This is the best I could get (in the corner, with a paci and a book).
After a beautiful church service, we went over to Nanny Sasa’s for an Easter Egg Hunt and Easter Dinner.
It was naptime, and James wanted nothing to do with anything, but his Nanny.
But once he learned the eggs were filled with goodies, he suddenly got his second wind!
It is so clear when he is in a familiar place. He was running through the house like he owns it. I could hardly keep up!
And cousins Harper and James did what all kids do on Easter: They played and ate chocolate and fought over toys.
I love that they live so close and are growing up together. Harper jumped up and down when we pulled into the driveway, “Baby James is here! Baby James is here!”
And here are two of my favorite pictures of this Easter. This is right before we ate. I love pictures like these that capture the true moment. I see a busy kitchen with two tired kids and three generations. I see Nanny’s homemade macaroni and cheese that didn’t make it to the table. And I can see why. I see my pregnant sister with my niece to be. I see my son growing up in the house my husband grew up in. I see love and I see care. And I love it all.
Happy Easter everyone! I hope you have had a wonderful day!
