Happy Easter!

We had a great Easter! We got up and Elliot hunted for Easter eggs. Daddy and I (I mean the Easter bunny) hid eggs, and Elliot found the 12 regular eggs and 3 Elmo eggs filled with Gerber puffs, yogurt melts, and diced dried apples. When we were laying in bed last night, Dave and I agreed that watching her hunt for eggs and the excitement she had was the highlight of our day. We then got dressed in our finest - Elliot looked BEAUTIFUL in her Easter dress (I didn't get any pics - bad Mom! Aunt Vik - we need pics!) When we left church, we stopped by the school's flower sale and picked up an Easter Lily for Grandma J. We headed home and made bread and a peach/cherry tart for Grandma's house. A few hours later (and no nap...) we headed to Dave's parents for dinner with the entire extended family. We got to meet baby Emma, only 8 days old. Elliot was not on her best behavior for the first couple of hours, but then again Stephen made her look quite agreeable. Two too tired babies can be hard! We had a nice time at the Jak's, then came home and crashed! What a great day!

(On a side note, I just wanted to write to myself that I stopped nursing Elliot on March 27. It was a very hard several weeks for Elle and I, she seems to be hating on me less now. I just wanted to remind myself when I stopped. I chose to stop now, because I knew I wanted to stop sometime soon, but was having a difficult time with the idea. Elliot got a cold and couldn't nurse for four days. I thought nature would take over and I was wrong - I still have milk should I choose to start up again, but we're done. My baby isn't a baby any longer.)
