Happy Easter!

Scott got to celebrate his first Easter yesterday! I've always enjoyed celebrating Easter, and now it has become even more special now that we have our little boy. In addition to recognizing and observing the purpose of Easter, we also carried out the usual traditions.

Matt and I took turns dyeing Easter eggs with Scott
If you look closely...you can see that Scott's onesie says "My dad is a geek."

Here is our little family, awww!

After we dyed our eggs it was time for bed. Since I knew we were going to be taking pictures the next morning I wanted to make sure that Scott was wearing cute pajamas. So I spent just a little too much time picking out which jammies he was going to wear to bed (of all things!), then we went to bed. Well, best laid plans....the next morning Scott had a couple diaper explosions that caused me to have to change his clothes anyway! Oh well, he looks cute in anything!

It was so exciting for Scott to get his Easter basket. It was pretty loaded with a lot of good stuff...including a few special treats for mommy and daddy, of course!

Oh boy! Look at all that good stuff!
Smile for the camera!

After finding Scott's Easter basket we had our Easter egg hunt. Daddy worked with the Easter bunny and hid the eggs, while mommy helped Scott look for the eggs. It was a great morning.

After church we went to Mike and Aracely's home for dinner...delicious! It was a simple evening where we were able to just sit back, enjoy the beautiful weather, and watch the kids go crazy for their Easter goodies!

And in the end, it was a great holiday. Scott had a pretty good day, especially considering he missed one of his naps. And last of all, here is our best, last minute attempt at an Easter baby "portrait." Like I said before...he is cute in anything!
