Our Easter celebrations have been going on since last weekend’s egg hunt, but here are pictures from this weekend and the official holiday:
First off was a visit with Grammie and Pop yesterday during which Liam received his first Easter candy. Here are some pictures as he discovered that there were M&Ms inside that egg:
The Easter Bunny came to visit Liam:
As you’ll notice the Easter Bunny brought a coloring book, a package (containing a little toy and a CD), and some Easter candy. As you’ll also notice, Liam’s attention went immediately to the chocolate bunny and he hasn’t opened anything else yet.
“Oh! Chocolate!”
Here’s where we tried to take other things out of the basket to show Liam. You can see how interested he was…
Here’s where I gave up and opened the bunny for him:
And the big moment:
Shortly thereafter we moved to the table and added a bib:
He took a brief bunny break for an egg:
Aaaaannnnnd…back to the bunny:
All dressed for church:
After church we snuck in a couple of family pictures:
We finished up the day at Gran and Granddaddy’s for an Easter dinner. Liam was so high from the sugar and being overtired that we only took about 8 pictures, but here are a few of those we got:
The Easter Bunny visited Liam at Gran and Granddaddy’s too. In true Liam fashion, he was finished checking out his basket as soon as he saw the first thing in the stack, which in this case were stickers. He was briefly diverted by candy, but when he learned that I really wasn’t going to let him have more than one piece, he moved back to the stickers…
“Look, Dad! Stickers!”
Closer inspection:
Elmo loves Liam:
Liam loves chocolate:
It was a jam-packed day. I just hope that Liam wakes up well-rested and without a sugar hangover because we’ve still got a couple (hopefully only a couple) more days as nomads before we can go back to business as usual. Fingers crossed that everyone makes it intact!
