Easter 2011

Whoops, forgot to do a post about that holiday. So, we'll backtrack to, Jude was 14 months then. It wouldn't be Easter without April showers. Here's Jude on his way to church, in raincoat, rain hat, and awesome plaid Easter pants.

The full body Easter outfit shot -- this was the snazziest I could find. They don't make cool clothes for boys like they do girls.

Our only decent family shot. It's hard.

He got two Easter baskets - one from Mommy and Daddy, and one from Mimi and K Pa. Lucky kid!

Little did Mimi know, that the bunny she gave Jude (basket on the left) would become his lovey. It's so sweet! I thought Jude wouldn't have a lovey, because for the first 14 1/2 months, he wasn't necessarily attached to anything, besides his nookie. But, in the last month, he has come to love "Bunny" so much, and it melts my heart. He hugs Bunny, sleeps on Bunny, caresses his ears as we watch cartoons before bed, shares him with his Mommy and Daddy, and takes him to Momma D's when she watches him. It is so precious to see :)

Happy boy. This was the first time where he really enjoyed going through his gifts, and checking out what he got.

We ended the Holiday at Momma D and Pappa G's -- with an absolutely fantastic dinner. Man, they know how to cook. We usually strip Jude down to his diaper when eating these home-cooked meals, because he tears it up! Momma D always makes him his own placemat for his holiday meals - we got one for Thanksgiving and Christmas - and has him eat his food on china. Very classy!
