You break my heart with tenderness,
And I confess it's true-
I never knew a love like this
til you!

Our 1st Easter with Alex


After breakfast Alex "found" his Easter basket "hidden" behind the dining room curtain. Actually Buddy found it first but don't tell Alex that ;-) The Easter Bunny brought him a few books and a froggie puppet and some eggs to play with. There were even some treats for Mommy and Daddy and Buddy, too! Alex had fun going through his basket and then "swimming" in the basket grass.




After church we went to Aunt Nell's house to celebrate. We had lots of yummy food, including monkey bread and Nana/Papa, Granny and Aunt Dee had some cool gifts for Alex. Alex enjoyed being silly with Nana, Papa and Granny. He also liked Uncle Kevin's guitar playing and tried to join in.

Then the older cousins had an Easter Egg Hunt in the backyard while Alex and Aidan enjoyed a wagon ride. Alex also went in the swing outside for the first time which he LOVED. He didn't enjoy the slide as much though.



Then we went to Grandma Sharon's house to celebrate with that side of the family. Alex enjoyed sitting in the highchair playing with his cousins and singing along with them. Of course, Grandma Sharon got some "Alex time", too!



It was a great day filled with lots of family and fun!
