Easter!

In the last two weeks so much has happened! You know the quote "be careful what you wish for..." Well Chad and I are eating our words. We couldn't wait for the day for Abs to crawl and well she is crawling all over the place. She loves the entertainment center, the puppies, and the puppies’ toys! I believe it is a baby’s intuition to know what is off limits and go straight for it! Watching her learn is simply amazing, you can see it in her eyes the excitement when she figures something out. It melts our heart. She also is starting to teeth; her 1st little tooth is starting to poke through. Awww she is getting so big.

Our Easter holiday started last weekend going to my parent’s. My Aunt Linda and Uncle Bob are visiting for CO, it was great to see them both doing so well. My sister and I have finally talked our parents into moving to Texas. They have lived in the same little town for many of years and made numerous friends, but decided it was time to be closer to the kids and grandkids. We are both ecstatic to have our parents around more often, not to mention the convenience of having them around with kids!

Saturday we spent the day at Granny's with Mimi and Paps. Abby wore a beautiful little dress until we discovered she couldn't crawl because her knee kept getting caught in the dress, so then she ran around in just a diaper. I had this image when I had Abby that she would wear beautiful dresses and big bows everyday…. Little did I know she had her own plan? (Her plan is way better than I ever imagined) We had great food and conversation. Our dearest Amanda came over Saturday night for a visit. As always we had some laughs, a few beers, and did a little gossiping.

Easter day…. It was a great day with the Allison, Fallon, and Garcia family. As always Pepaw and Mimi Marty made a feast big enough for an army. It is impossible to leave their house hungry! Following dinner we had a girls vs boys game of touch football. Apparently touch football means Melody getting hit in the nose twice, Wendy almost breaking a jaw and spending more time on the ground then on her feet, and Chad almost having an asthma attack. Overall it was a fun, friendly game! The evening was followed by watching the kids hunt Easter eggs. It was a great 1st Easter with Abigail.

I hope everyone had a great Easter and loves this weather. This is the best time of the year in Texas. We are going to Austin this weekend for Ryan wedding. I hope Chad and I find time to set on a patio and enjoy a margarita.

Thanks for reading….

Hug and Kisses,
