Happy Easter

In case you forgot, this is actually Andrew's second Easter :-) I cannot believe this time last year, we were bringing him home from the hospital. He came into the world on Good Friday, April 10 and Grandma May and Aunt Beth welcomed the family home on Easter, April 12. It's so fun having a spring baby. We've had a great weekend and miss daddy even more around this time of year.

At 8 months Andrew visited Santa and did NOT enjoy it. However, at almost 1 year old, he thought the Easter bunny was just great! We also took lots of photos outside later that day and he dug through his Easter basket a little early. Then we went to church with Rachel and her family and took some more photos in his cute little tie and khakis.



 








I had a lot of fun enjoying all of this and I can tell he did too. ;-) BUT Saturday is his first birthday and it makes me a little sad. I think everyone else sees it more than me, but our little baby is more of a little boy now. Sniff, sniff....

Soon, no more bottles (not that he can sit still anymore for me to feed him) which means less cuddling for me :-( Someone stop him please! Oh this is so hard, but so fun at the same time and I can't think of anything else that can compare to this experience. The good news is, he can hug and is trying to learn to blow kisses, so I have more to look forward to, right? But I will mourn anyway and miss my baby so much. I think you might have seen the last of your "baby" daddy, so be prepared to meet your toddler!

Awww!! So cute. I'm sure it's hard to leave the baby phase (as I'll soon find out!) but just think of all you have to look forward to!
