Happy Easter!!!

Thank you, Grandma!
As usual, it has been a very busy few weeks for the OG. She was very excited to have Grandma Auriol in town to play with her for a whole week! Unfortunately, Grandma and the OG took turns being sick...but, thankfully everyone is better now.

The OG took advantage of every minute of the visit...she quickly learned that as soon as she let out any sort of "squeak" Grandma would immediately go to pick her up (whereas, we usually ignore her). Ever since Grandma returned to Las Vegas, the OG has had to re-learn that the world doesn't revolve around her! (In Grandma's defense, though, it IS hard to resist that smile...)



Aunties Cori and Tamra are NOT much better at resisting the OG's charms. Auntie Cori is just as bad as Grandma (she and Uncle Trav bought OG an adorable, yellow spring dress...to celebrate her first steps)...

...and Auntie Tamra has learned to space out her visits so that she doesn't over-spoil the OG, too much!

Charmed
The OG spent St. Paddy's Day a little under the weather...but that certainly didn't stop her from donning her
festive, green shirt!

Lately, the OG has taken to putting both her hands up on her head. We can't decide whether she is practicing getting arrested or posing as a swimsuit model...and, we're not quite sure which one we'd prefer...

Like Father, Like Daughter
Uncle Huey met us out for lunch...and we discovered that the OG LOVES her sweet potato fries! If we had let her, she probably would have eaten the entire skillet of fries! Yipes!

Little Bunny Foo-Foo
Olivia missed Easter by just a few weeks last year...so, she wanted to be sure to make the most out of it this year.

We had a lot of fun coloring Easter eggs. The OG took extra time to decorate eggs to look like Uncle Huey, Uncle Travis and Daddy (in the picture, from left to right). She picked out the colors, the eyes and the smiles. I'm not sure what her logic was, but I don't think she was too far off...do you?

The Easter Bunny must have thought that the OG was a very good girl because she received quite an Easter basket! She received all sorts of art supplies and paper, some new books and bubbles, a set of flashcards that teach French...but, her two favorite presents were...


her toothbrush...

...and her stuffed globe with velcro "children of the world."

HAPPY EASTER TO ALL!!
