Easter

A fantastic Easter!!  I loved spending it with family.

Easter baskets from Nana to Sam and Elli

Abby found 10 eggs!

Coloring Eggs





From Nana

 Yeah!  We got some eggs!







Standing Champ!

Easter was fantastic!  We got to watch Sam and Elli run after eggs.  Have a great dinner with family and new friends and that was all on Saturday!

Sunday we spent time with the grandparents!


And we surprised them with an Easter egg hunt! Three eggs for each grandparent and a present hidden for them!  Steve hid the eggs and I hid the presents.  Steve made it really hard to find the eggs.


Opening the gifts....
 A bug catcher for Abby and Bubba
 A Disney pop up toy for Grandpa
 A telephone for grandma because she always lets Abby play with her phone.
 "Let me tell you about my day....." - Abby
 A wooden kitchen set for Nana

 And surprise!  Momma hid a gift for dad-o.....A Michigan Outfit!
 Well, a dress makes it hard to crawl....So we had to take it off....She stands up all the time!  

(poor kid, her onesie is too short for her...)

Opening Day!

Today was the first game of the season for the Detroit Tigers!  Yah for baseball!  Abby wore her baseball dress!  And....Amber put in pigtails, how cute!
 You can't even see her pigtails in this picture, but her face is hilarious!

 Those little pig tails are so tiny!
 Look, it is a home run!!!!
 To get a perspective on how small the pigtails were....


 Then Amber captured my favorite part of the day on camera...Kisses from Abby...
 And "love" from Abby....

It is my favorite when I lay on the floor, Abby starts laughing and crawls towards me, smushes her head to mine and then starts giving me kisses!

I mean, who couldn't love that from this kid???
