Swingin'

You mean you're supposed to put your legs through those leg-holes? Now that's just silly.

After church on Easter morning, we went to my parents' house to spend the rest of the day with them and Jess, who was down for the long weekend. We arrived to a whole bunch of goodies-- Easter baskets for Leah and us, as well as an amazing dinner, courtesy of my momma.


Jared is helping Leah model her Easter dress.


Leah is making her snorty "fierce face" in her brand-new walker (an Easter gift from Oma and Opa). She was too small for it and her little legs didn't reach the floor, so we had to make it Leah-sized and fix it for her. She's not a fan just yet, but she'll come around once she figures out she can make it move on her own.

Easter celebrations

So I know it's a little late, but Happy Easter everyone! I'll just look at my late posting as another opportunity for all of us to remember Easter and its importance again. See? Now I feel better. :)

And here are pictures of the munchkin.

Leah finds her first Easter basket, complete with rubber ducky, stuffed blue duck (which I am trying unsuccessfully to make her sleeping buddy), and some wiffle balls. Though she likes the wiffle balls, they were a poor choice by me because her little fingers keep getting stuck in those perfectly sized holes.
Here she is, complete with sleepy eyes and bed-head. Mornings can be so confusing.
Well, would you look at that-- it's been a month! In that time span we've gone up to Dallas for our friends' wedding, celebrated Easter, and had some visitors. In an effort to prevent you from going into picture overload, I'll start you off nice and slow.
Here's a picture of Jared and I at Sam and Kevin's wedding in Dallas. Look at us, all dolled up and sans baby. (Leah had her first sleepover at Oma and Opa's house, and she behaved perfectly!) (Side note-- After spending this past week in the field for work, I am no longer this ridiculously pale. Thank goodness!)
