As most of you know by now, we are expecting our 3rd baby! I've been terribly ill and in bed for weeks now, which is why things have been so quiet around here. Luckily, I'm at the end of my first trimester now, starting to feel a little better, and ready to start sharing here again! The baby is doing well and is due 11/11/11.
We had a wonderful Easter weekend. Kim and Eric flew out from Providence to visit and Joanne and Jim hosted an Easter brunch. On Friday the girls spent half the day with the relatives while Ed and I went to a doctor's appointment and did some last minute Easter shopping. Saturday, Ed took the girls to a local farm to participate in the little kids' egg hunt and meet some baby animals--they saw chicks, a donkey, goats, and Matilda held a bunny!
On Sunday, the girls got dressed up in their Easter dresses (little matching sailor suits) and recieved baby dolls from Mommy and Daddy that had dresses that matched the girls' outfits. They really enjoyed those baby dolls!
Everyone met up at Jim and Joanne's house for brunch. The girls played with all the toys and showed off their little dolls.
Joanne got fancy dresses for the girls and Evelyn decided she needed to get a little more dolled up for this special occasion.
After breakfast, the girls spent some time playing outside.
By noon it was time for everyone to go--and the girls and I needed a nap! After nap, we let the girls sample a little Easter candy and gave them the rest of their gifts--some bubbles, a plush doll for Evelyn and a princess Belle barbie for Matilda. They were thrilled!
