Happy Easter!

Well, Easter was one of my minor holidays to work this year. I was supposed to work Friday, Saturday and Sunday, like normal. I ended up being forced to take PTO on Saturday (to avoid being cancelled without pay) so we were able to attend an Easter Service at Watermark! It was so wonderful!

Unfortunately, Cohen has yet to experience an Easter egg hunt. I'm hoping next year is the year. :)

Here is Cohen LAST YEAR on Easter, a mere 3 months old.

Before he could really move out of the picture :)

So, this year, we did Easter basket on Sunday evening, when I got home from work. Because I'm a little selfish and wanted to see him open it. :)

Easter Basket 2012! 

"Umm..what is this?"

There were puffs in all the eggs. :)

Jesus Loves Me book.

The contents: two summer outfits, sock monkey bunny, new sippy cup, book, chocolate marshmallow cross (I ate it), Peeps "sucker" (daddy and I ate it) and eggs filled with Puffs!

Isn't that cute?

Quite confused about why there's an empty cup being given to him.

Mama, you open this egg?

It was a wonderful Easter, though I was working. :) (getting used to saying that!) And we end the weekend feeling so blessed. And so thankful that Jesus defeated death and rose from the grave all those years ago. We're so unworthy, yet still He loves us. 

Happy Easter!

Happy Easter!!

I was so thrilled to put together Cohen's very first Easter basket. I filled it with cute things that I knew he'd be "growing in to" in these next few weeks. 

A new onesie

Big boy bowls for when we start cereal in a few weeks!!

Spoons for said cereal.. :)

A new jittery giraffe for his car seat.

A vibrating teething ring (yes, we think he's starting early..)

And of course, an Easter bunny!!

There was also a new pajama set (as he's grown out of all the 0-3month ones!) and a teether that can be frozen to soothe his gums. He had fun! I was afraid he'd just stare at it, but he actually tried to chew on everything. 

Now this is my favorite Easter Basket!! :)

Granna and Pop came over to celebrate Easter with us and go to Watermark's Saturday service. We had a great time!

Here we are at Church!

Dinner at Taco Diner (yummy!)

His Easter card from Granna and Pop!

They brought him a new outfit, new sandals and these new pj's! We love them!

(Again with the chewing...)

My sweet Easter baby!

Our little family!

What a sweet day! We are so glad my Mom and Dad got to come over. They're only 2 hours away but it seems like we have to go long times in between visits. Cohen was about 3 months and 1 week this Easter. Next year we should get to go to an Egg hunt!
