audrey's first easter

we have had such a fun week with melissa in town. yesterday was easter and it was my favorite easter yet because it was so fun to watch audrey celebrate it. we thought she would get bored pretty fast but she didn't. she pulled each item out of her basket one at a time and was content and smiling for over an hour and then continued to laugh in her bumbo while we uploaded all the photos. i think she is a fan of easter!



























audrey loved the stuff that grandma montoya sent too:





she liked the foil from her giant chocolate egg best:




here are a few shots of audrey in her easter dress from auntie rachel. thanks rach!






we have had a great week. we went to the tidal basin and rode the paddle boats, went to happy hour at chevy's, dave was offered a great new job, we went to lunch at mount vernon, got pedicures (all of our toes looked like easter eggs with colors like green, purple, lavender and hot pink), went to dinner at carlos o'kellys, dyed easter eggs, had deviled egg casserole for breakfast on easter and ham with all the fixings for dinner and lots of great conversations.

my mom watched audrey so i could ride the paddle boats with melissa. here is a picture my dad shot of my mom kissing audrey.


dave and audrey gave me beautiful tulips for easter. i love them and they bring springtime into the basement. i especially love them today since i am sick once more and will stay home and rest today.

hope everyone had a great easter weekend.
