Out of order Easter Post

Easter came in abundance this year! On Saturday morning, Mamma and Pop-pop came to town and we took Miles and Amelia to the Burlingame Easter Egg Hunt and pancake breakfast. Tons of kids were around and were serenaded by the Lions Club band. The Easter Bunny was there and freaked out Miles a bit. Miles did great in the Egg Hunt, and Tim even took the opportunity to teach him to share with other little kids. Miles happily took out eggs from his basket and gave them to others... I guess the greed will come next year!


After Miles woke up from his nap, Mamma had helped the Easter Bunny with a hunt in the back yard. Miles had 66 eggs to find, so many he began to be choosy - he avoided eggs that didn't rattle when he shook them and eggs that were in the dirt. I think he loved the game, especially putting all his quarters from the eggs into the piggy bank that Uncle Pito and Aunt Melissa gave him for his baptism.


On Sunday morning, we followed Mamma and Pop-pop down to Kevin and Jeannie's for another Easter egg hunt and a visit with the cousins. Like always, Miles LOVED hanging out with "Tylie and Tody". It really is wonderful to have them around.


After Miles woke up from his nap there, we traveled up to Menlo Park to Aunt Patsy's house to see all the Fish cousins. Miles got into a great game with Jack, Ryan and a bellows. He followed Margo around and she played piano with him. Miles was transfixed with the musical instruments ("Miles turn tar" = "Miles turn to play the guitar") while the cousins were transfixed with Amelia who was well behaved the entire day.

when we got home, we were so pleased with our sweet and wonderful children, that we had a small photo shoot. I didn't think I would enjoy Amelia in dresses, but she looked so stinkin' cute that she may be wearing them as long as I have control over her wardrobe!
