Easter!

Easter 2011 was so much fun!! Nathan got his picture taken at Triangle Town Center on Saturday and that was quite an adventure. It seemed the mall had forgotten to turn on the A/C because I was sweating buckets. I guess it didn't help much that Nathan wouldn't stay in the stroller so I was toggling him between my arms and the floor. I had to keep distracting him with people walking by or, my favorite, the giant train that was running through the mall. We were in line for what seemed like hours but realistically was roughly 20 minutes. Once he got in the oversized rabbit's lap, he was in heaven. The trick to get him to smile in the pic was for me to stand behind the camera with his favorite furry friend Sheepy.

 

 

Sunday we had an awesome morning at church. It was great to see almost every seat full!! What a refreshing and spirit-filled service we had. Then later off to my parents house where we ate and ate and ate. Had too much junk on top of real food.

Unfortunately Nathan is teething right now... 4 of those puppies are coming in. That means obscene crankiness on his part. I felt so sorry for him because in the afternoon on Sunday, his mouth was hurting really bad. He was spending time with his hand in his mouth. He's never been much into teething rings... and I had forgotten the orajel and tylenol at home. It's been months since he teethed and now so many are coming through together. As my mom says, this too shall pass. Poor little man :(

 

 

His walking is getting better and better by the day. He likes to hold his arms in the air when he walks so that makes it even cuter. And he has some new words... Apple, Baby, Eyes, Football (or booball), and Papa.

Kisses,
