Jesus, The Easter Bunny, & Elmo

Tobe, Isaac, and I spent Easter by ourselves as a family of three (perhaps more like 3.7) this year and had a nice day of mixing the religious and secular aspects of this springtime holiday. We only took a mere 134 pictures of Isaac by noon today. Here are some of our favorites:

Friday's Easter Egg Hunt with Morgan
(Again, no good pictures of the two of them together. This is going to make the wedding slide show quite difficult.)
Bluebonnets!
We ventured out to the side of a highway entrance ramp to snap these. Thank goodness for photo editing software as we were able to crop out the Albertson's sign in the background!












No Easter celebration is complete without your own live bunny to chase around the backyard

Isaac and Bunny sharing a piece of bread
Hunting eggs in the front yard















Digging through the goods in his Easter basket
(By the way, Isaac might have made an unusual association between Jesus, the Easter Bunny, and Sesame Street. Every thing in his Easter basket was Sesame Street-themed, with the exception of the bunny. Even his eggs were filled with Elmo and friends characters. I never thought I would be such a sell-out to "The Man")

Just in case you care....here is a picture of Isaac with his Easter basket this year and a shot of him with his basket last year. I guess it is true that if you feed them, kids sure do grow!


Happy Easter!

So cute! I love the bluebonnet pictures! I am not brave enough with Emaline, that girl would be directing traffic at DFW if I turn my back. That picture of you and Isaac is GREAT!

I looked at that outfit for my boys at Children's Place- we ended up with the green and brown instead. Looks cute on Isaac! Sounds like a great day.

I love all the pictures! He is so adorable and what a smile. I can't wait to see Miss Evelyn. I appreciate that you recycled the Easter basket too.

I'm so jealous of your weather up there. Elizabeth ended up hunting Easter eggs in our living room because it snowed and/or rained all weekend.

Love the bluebonnet pics!!

Isaac is precious! I love all the pics.

Precious pics- those bluebonnet pics are total framers! Like Shanta said, I can't wait to see pics of little Evelyn upon her arrival!

Great pictures! How cool to have a live bummy.

Lynley, regarding your previous post, when I had NIcholas my uterus was the size of a uterus holding twins because of polyhydramnious. I did have the advantage with both pregnancies of not feeling their feet on my ribs because of all of the swimming around they could do, but come on! You are so small! I don't want to hear anything more about how big you are.
