Easter

We had an action packed Easter weekend. Our last set of company, Matt's parents, came in mid week last week and were here with us through the weekend to celebrate and meet little Charlie. We had a nice visit, pretty relaxing and low-key, but they got to spend a lot of time with both boys. Alec got to pull out his motorized speed boat from Santa and show them that, which was a highlight for him. Sadly, the weather didn't cooperate much and it was pretty rainy and dreary, but we made the most of it and their trip included going to the park, the children's museum, Alec's swim lessons and over to a childhood friend of Matt and I's from Arvada for Easter dinner. I loved the help and it was great for them to spend time with the kiddos. Here are some pics from their visit and the last week. The first photo is of Alec modeling an Easter hat that he made with Matt at Daddy class; a class they just started together at the rec center on Monday nights. Alec has been looking forward to it for weeks, and they have had a good time so far; I guess they play games, sing songs, cook, do crafts, AND, give the mommy's an hour off.

Alec went on a total of four egg hunts this weekend! This was the first hunt, hosted by our neighbors across the street. This is a pic of all the kiddos on our block who participated. Alec, and his pal Morgan, are the babies of the group, but they managed to make out with plenty of eggs.

Dying eggs with Grandma Susan and Daddy. Before they started Alec told Susan that she also needed to take off her shirt....she respectfully declined:)

If you look closely you can see Alec's fat lip, which he got from falling down the stairs (totally b/c he was horsing around on them) earlier in the day. The kid is literally always covered in battle wounds.

What Charlie thinks of egg dying

Finding his basket on Easter morning. We woke up to, "Mommy, mommy, the bunny left an egg outside my door!" He was really cute and excited about the egg hunt in the house.

Alec's 4th egg hunt of the weekend, over at Mark and Christie's, where we had Easter dinner.

This was literally hilarious, they would open the eggs, pull out the candy, shove it into their mouths and then toss the eggs aside. Good thing they spent the entire afternoon running around burning off all that sugar.

Even Brody got to come, and he channeled his youth and spent the afternoon playing in the yard with Oakley.
