Easter was a little crazy this year since I just had the baby a week before. I didn't get to Target until Saturday and so pretty much everything was sold out. Plastic eggs included. I happened to have a dozen on hand, but other than that and the dozen we colored, that was it. I got a few odds and ends to call it enough for a basket, but no table setting, the food was so-so and the hunt was fair. It was kindof hectic. I did get around to going to church, but it was crazy there, too. I didn't get many pictures of the family, and the ones we were supposed to take as a family got ruined because of the pooping incident. We woke up and colored eggs, again because I didn't get around to it on Saturday, and then we had crepes. We went to church, where after the 2nd hour and getting pooped and peed on it the mothers lounge with 5 other nursing moms, I headed home. The Easter Bunny came while the boys were at church and they had fun as pitiful as it seemed to me.
Some of our friends decorate our tree every year. I think this is the cutest idea and the kids are sure it means the Easter Bunny came!

My baby's first Easter. He swam in his Easter outfit, but he was sure cute. I will get pictures of him in it another time.
They have really enjoyed most of what ended up in the basket and they were so excited. I guess I shouldn't be so hard on myself.
I can't believe how big Landon seems now that the baby is here. He is enjoying Grey so much. The first thing he does each morning is ask to hold the baby. He has even compared how Grey smells to his beloved "doggy". He asked me the other day who I thought smelled better, Grey or doggy. He thinks they are equal. Mommy prefers Grey, but if you knew how much it took to get to the same level as doggy, you would understand his love for his brother.
Cohen loved the hunt. He got SO excited every time he found an egg. He is so cute when he is having fun. He almost glows with excitement. He has been showing some of the signs of having a new baby. He seems super emotional and tired. He has had several out of character melt downs and just is having a hard time this week. He went back to school today and that seemed to help. He is just such a sweet guy, I hate to see him having a time.
Cohen holding the eggs he and Landon colored. We had kits from last year that didn't get used and they got to paint the eggs and do all sorts of fun things with them. I liked it way better than the old fashioned dipping. They had dye all over, but they had a blast.
One big happy family. Baby Grey sat on the counter for all the egg coloring action, as to not be left out. His brothers thought this was so funny. I hate the post baby pictures, but that is the price a mom pays for having the most amazing addition to our family!
