Easter 2009

We had a wonderful Easter this year.  Although we missed being with our families we very much enjoyed spending the day together finding eggs, playing with toys and reading.  The first picture is of Noah before Easter breakfast... he is a juice deprived kid (he only really gets it in his special cup on special occasions). I had filled the cup 1/2 full of OJ and needless to say he drank it all right away:)  The next few are of him in a coat that my grandmother made for J-me when he was little for Easter.  I was very excited that it still fit him and that he LOVED wearing it.  When I ask him to pose for pictures now this is what I get... he walks away and sits on the floor... I can't get him to stand up in one spot:)  He enjoyed all of his presents, especially his gardening tools.  The Easter Bunny came and hid eggs for him... he didn't get this concept initially, but once he figured out that each one contained 2 M & M's he quickly caught on.  He would find an egg and insist on opening it immediately and eating the M&M's right away before moving on the the next one... maybe the Easter bunny should have put only one M&M in each egg:)  

Goggles & Pizza

Noah's friend Suvi (pronounced- "Who-hee" by Noah... at least he is finally attempting to say it:)) celebrated her 2nd birthday and at the party Noah found her new swimming goggles... needless to say he didn't take them off for quite a while... they even fogged up and he couldn't see anything, even proceeding to walk into chairs and other things.  The other 2 pictures are of Gabe and Noah making english muffin pizzas.  He loves to cook and ate far less raw cheese than I thought he might:)
