Happy Easter!

Avery's first Easter was very exciting, even though she really didn't know what was going on. She enjoyed opening all the fun boxes that arrived from Aunt Liz, Aunt Monica and Grandma, and reading her fun new books. A few pics from the weekend...

Here she is buttering up the Easter Bunny on Saturday. The funny part of this is that the outfit only lasted about 10 minutes before a poo escaped out the side and sent us back for a change of clothes. As I look at this picture, I think I may have captured the exact moment that the aforementioned poo emerged.

Enjoying an egg hunt of sorts in the back yard in her fancy Easter dress...


Showing Daddy where the good eggs are hidden...


I have no idea how it's possible that her foot is right there.
Nor do I know where the other one is.

So when Avery first started enjoying peek-a-boo, we played by putting things over her head and letting her pull them off. This little game has totally backfired on us. She will not wear hats. Not even for a second. Here we are trying to get her to wear her matching hat for the Easter photo shoot. As you can see, it didn't go well.

I love it. I would like to point out that BOTH of these super cool outfits are from me. Gosh, that Aunt Monica sure is the coolest....

Um, yes. That was discussed at length this weekend. The hat that she refused to wear was from you, too!

Thank goodness she captured that runaway foot before it totally escaped! Thank you for taking these beautiful photos and sharing this Easter day with us. I am getting concerned about all those hats I have bought her now that I know she'll never wear any of them:-( Her Easter bonnet from Aunt Monica is very zesty, even though Avery thought it was a frisbee.

Yes, it was a whole ensemble. Complete with squeaky shoes! I believe there is a pants outfit that matches the hat as well. Guess she will be wearing that sans hat. :-)
