Happy Easter!

Whew!  What a crazy whirlwind of an Easter weekend!! And here we are, Sunday night at 9:30,  and I can still hear Graham in his bed telling his bear all about his adventures today!   Hmm, I wonder if it is residual sugar high from the approximately 10 jelly beans I let him have today?!

Graham definitely enjoyed his Easter this year.  We visited the Easter Bunny on Tuesday night, and fortunately, Graham was still all smiles this year!  He walked/ran right up to the Bunny, waved and said "Hi!" and proceeded to climb in her lap and make himself at home!

Graham enjoyed the Easter breakfast, egg hunt, and service at church too.  He is definitely the son of musicians as he can be wiggling and squirming about until the music starts.  Then he stops and is all ears listening to the different sounds.  Today, there were extra fun sounds at church as there were lots of friends Graham's age.  We even managed to get a picture with our friend, Ricky who was born right before Christmas.  It seems as though they are deep in conversation already!

Over the course of the weekend, Graham had fun at 3 egg hunts!!  I think he probably thought we were all crazy...asking him to pick up eggs, put them in the basket, and ignore the swings and slides nearby!  Priorities when you are a 17 month old, people!

It was definitely a learning curve, but by the third one in our backyard today, he finally had it and was running around the yard picking up eggs and dutifully bringing them back to the basket I was holding.  He loved shaking the eggs and loved them even more when he discovered that they had jelly beans or goldfish crackers inside!  He was also excited to see what goodies the Easter Bunny had left him!  Ernie, Bert, a "Ca" (Lightning McQueen) and a "tuc"  (Mater) made his day! 
Almost as much as strewing the Easter grass all around the house!

From our family to yours, Happy Easter!
