Happy Easter!

From our family to yours, Happy Easter!

Liam enjoyed his first holiday with family from near and far. He started to getting festive a couple of days early when he received an awesome Easter basket in the mail from his Grandma and Papa in Illinois. I think Liam likes the Easter bunny! Thanks Grandma and Papa!



On Friday, it was off to Nana and Grandpa's house for Liam's first overnight trip! He slept the whole way there (which we so very much appreciated) and seemed to love checking out his new surroundings. He is getting more alert every day.

On Saturday, my cousin Shannon, her husband Jason, and their two adorable boys Dillon (5) and Gilbey (2) arrived from Rhode Island. We were excited for them to meet Liam! Here is GG catching up with her little great-grandson with Shannon and Gilbey:



The boys were so good with Liam and were the perfect older cousins! They did a great job holding him:



Here is Liam on Easter morning, with his new outfit and a special basket from Nana and Grandpa:



What's Easter morning without an egg hunt? The boys and their dads scouring the backyard:



Dillon gathered quite the basket:



Gilbey was a close second-- check out those eggs!



And Liam came in a distant third :) Maybe next year, buddy!



Back inside, GG, Liam, and I had fun playing:



Nana's cool Easter Bunny cake-- just like my Nana used to make!



Back in KoP... we were living in a bit of a construction zone for a few days last week as our death-trap front steps and walkway were ripped out to make way for a new entrace and handrail. Liam was itching to play in all that dirt and put his footprints in the wet concrete, but we had to remind him that he is just too little!



They finished in just 3 days and we are really happy with the new entrance (and will be even happier once the grass grows back!). Drumroll please...
