Most of these are from weeks ago now so I will do my best to give a recap:
LEFT: Aston checking out his loot after the Church Easter Egg Hunt at Sharon Presbyterian. We decided to try going to Church on Palm Sunday for the first time. I wouldn't say it was a disaster but close. Aston had a minor meltdown when we left both kids in childcare so we could enjoy the service. Mei was fine. The caretakers buzzed us 15 minutes into the service and I ended up having to stay with the kids in the childcare area while Jeff sat through the rest of the service. Our whole goal, post meltdown, was to get Aston into that egg hunt...which he appreciated and of course LOVED. RIGHT: Meips showing off her Sunday Best (a hand-me-down from Mia...one of the many...many)
A Daddy & kiddies Sunday Best photo...ok, maybe not the "Best" but it had been a l-o-n-g morning
And a Mommy & Meips...Aston had better things to do...like sort his Easter prizes from the church hunt
Just had to document this:( Mei was super sick (Roseola + Ear Infections) for the 2 weeks surrounding Easter...So just to warn you...the subsequent photos in this post have many sicky Mei faces in them:(
I got this Easter egg painting kit thing for Aston thinking it was brilliant. After we hardboiled our eggs and dyed them to prep for painting, Aston had more fun painting Jeff's fingers than he did the egg:) Ahhh...my 2 year old...
The baskets before...
...and after...
Ahhh...peeps...pure pleasure...even at 10 months (what was wrong with me! I would have never let Aston eat peeps at this age)
The inside egg hunt...(he insisted on using his pail from school last year)
Lizzy made an Easter appearance...more on Lizzy later
The outside egg hunt...when Pop Pop arrived. Pop stopped in for a quick overnight on Easter evening on his way back down to FL with a 26' moving truck in tow!
Mei the sicky...poor babe...she didn't want us to put her down but had to document this beautiful dress...again...Mia's hand-me-down
"Look! the Easter Bunny hopped up in the tree and gave me a car carrier!"
LEFT: Truck in a peach tree RIGHT: Easter Curious George book found at Babs house...the Easter Bunny visited BB + Babs too! so we went over to check it out
Bunny Babs did some really good egg hiding
There was some BIG loot in Babs garden for Aston and Meips!
Poor buggy...even Aston felt bad for her...you can see it in his face
Mei clung to Aunt Regina for the first part of the night...I'm so glad she's over her separation anxiety!...or maybe it's just Aunt Regina? Aston and Wooks snuggled up to some good Nick Jr. after the SUPER amazing Easter meal put on by the famous BB:) (btw...someone remind me take food pictures next time)

aw meips. great first pic of her. love the b&w mama k and her girl. love that you gave stelly welly (just gave her another ;)) a peep. what a neat idea hiding all the toys in the yard. did yall do that growing up?? fun stuff. love asty and wook too ps
am with kate - awesome idea to hide the toys in the yard - totally doing that next year. poor meis - she looks so unhappy and icky feeling (but still rockin' her fashions)- hand me downs are the best especially at that age because you know mia wore those outfits for all of about 3 seconds. preciousness. can't wait for school year to be over and be able to catch up more regularly with the kidlets.
looks like you guys had a great easter. love all the pictures and poor stelly! i hope all this sickness leaves her soon.
love these pics! LOVE the toys in the backyard. we did only stuff in the baskets this year (one little egg of a few starbursts) -- next year we'll have to take your hunt idea too. cute, cute, cute pics of aston and stell in the grass where aston is "comforting" her. love all the mia hand-me-downs. :)
Love the toy hunt idea! Poor Mei - sounds like she's a rough go of it lately - hope she's feeling better! Love all the pics!
