Happy Easter!!

Ella had a wonderful first Easter. Her grandpa and grandma from NY came to visit and they just couldn't get enough of her. Of course, they hated to leave, and we hated to see them go. Ella's got this new laugh thing going on too, and she was full of smiles and laughter all weekend long. She throws her head back and laughs--much like how mommy laughs with her. It's absolutely adorable and wonderful. She also never wants to sit anymore. She looooves to stand...and walk!! I hold her hands and she actually takes steps to me! So exciting!! We're so surprised that Ella can take actual steps and "walk," but just seems to have skipped over crawling. She is such a joy, the sweetest little thing.

We went to church this morning and that is just one of her favorite places. She was smiling at everyone! She was very tired though, and eventually conked out on grandma's shoulder. After mass Ella got a blessing from the priest which was beautiful. We had a great roast dinner later and Ella enjoyed sweet potatoes, some turkey and some *real* beef! She wasn't that excited about it at first but kept opening her mouth for more. It was so cute. She has such an appetite! She sure loves to eat! As soon as she goes into her highchair she starts smiling and flapping her arms, clearly getting excited to eat. Awww...

Here's my little cutie!! She's got the biggest smile!

Mmm...easter eggs! Yum, yum!



My little bunny. Could she be any cuter? :)



Happy Easter from us all!
