Happy Easter (2)

Easter baskets

 Getting a good family picture is next to impossible.  The preceding pictures were the cream of the crop :)  Below is the following festivities at Mom and Dad Gesch's house for lunch and an egg hunt.  There were a few retrieved by the dogs too.

 Private table  for two :)

 Thanks to Uncle Mark for joining us for Easter!

 And private table for  three !

Now we get to paint the masks from the Easter baskets.  Violet is a proficient painter for her age!  Wait til you see the finished product!

Not bad eh?

Happy Easter!

One morning at breakfast Marcy turned to Diana and said, "Did you know that God made Jesus not dead?"  To which Diana responded, "NO!"   Turdliness aside, it is nice to know when some concepts are finally sinking in!

So we've got two little girl updates :
Our Diana is now 2 and is pretty healthy.  We have been struggling with dislocated elbows for most of the winter but as of late we've gotten a brief respite.  She is in the 80% for her height and weight and is SLOWLY growing bits of hair :)

 We're potty training so she spends a lot of time sitting.  She gets bored and that's when things get interesting :)

 She asked me to take a picture of her baby :)  (Birthday gift from Auntie Laura)

Next on the docket is a 6 mo check for our little Violet.  She is also near the top of the charts in around the 70-85 % in her height and weight.  She can sit and roll like a champ but no crawling yet.  She has some slight  mouth issues so we're behind on baby food/table food but she's still growing like a weed so we're not concerned.  She sleeps through the night most nights so that makes for a very happy mom:) Marcy is LOVING having the baby finally interact with her and they've become quite good buddies!  

 Cuzins just hangin out :)

 And a few extra from doing puzzles with uncle Mark to visits from cousins.

 Playing in the mud is fun second to none!

 We love doing dressup here :)
