It was a wonderful Easter! Our Church had 3 services that morning, so Dave had to get up early to get everything ready. The boys and I did not get up till later. We went to the last service. With the boys still so little, we are not always at church all morning. I still like it when Eli gets to nap in his own bed!
I love this picture. I made Alex a Easter Basket (thanks mom for the bucket, I never got out to buy a basket) and he was not interested in sharing it with Eli. Eli was not even allowed to touch it. I wanted a cute picture of the two of them with the bucket in the middle. I arranged the contents very carefully so you could see what was inside. But as you can see, I did not get my picture! But that is a price expression on Eli's face!After church, we headed over to Marysville to eat lunch with the Family. It was wonderful to live close to family again! And Alex always enjoys going to Jonathon's house to play. In the evening, we eat dinner with our house family. Our landlords (who live in the apartment behind us) invited us to eat with them! So we had two Easter dinners and some great company! Gone are the days of having no one to celebrate holidays with and we love it!
On the Eli front, ohhh the things he is getting himself into. Cabinets, trash,baskets and Alex's toys!
Do not worry overanxious mothers out there! As soon as I took this picture, I quickly put the camera down and then put Eli on the floor. He is no longer safe on furniture for any amount of time! We actually caught this little man crawling a couple times yesterday. He would get about three or four knee steps and then fall on this tummy. Amazing, he is getting so big! He also has figure out how to roll from his tummy to his back (yes, both of my son's have been late rollers!). But has yet to figure out how to roll back to this tummy. This is an important step to learn for a tummy sleeper! We have had some bad nights and nap times these last few days. At the rate he is learning things, this will hopefully not last long!I hope to get around to post some more things later!
