Easter

This is our second Easter in Pennsylvania, and once again, it wasn't warm. Kristin's mom, Terri, was still in town helping with Owen, so she was able to enjoy the day with us.

Natalie was very excited for the Easter Bunny to come and visit her house. The night before she wanted to stay up so that she could see the Easter Bunny, but we had to explain to her that the Easter Bunny wouldn't come if she didn't sleep. She went to bed without a problem, much to my surprise.

In the morning, she was very excited to come downstairs and see what the Easter Bunny left her. Thankfully, the Easter Bunny was able to get up just in time to hide a few eggs around the house.

The funniest part of the whole day was not when Natalie found all the eggs, it was how she tried to hide candy for the rest of the day. Like a little squirrel getting ready for the winter, Natalie too jelly beans out of her plastic eggs and proceeded to hide them throughout the house. We would catch her walking off to some obscure part of the house to eat the candy that she had hidden. I guess I can't blame her, I probably would have done the same thing to sneak in a little more candy.

Owen celebrated Easter in style by sleeping the day away...Exhibit A:



It is hard to believe that it has been a year since last Easter...Natalie has grown so much. Check out the blog from 1 year ago!

Here is a comparison of Natalie in 2008:

We took numerous other pictures throughout the day, which can be viewed here: Link to other Easter pictures.
