Easter Fun

So, the sad kind of thing about Easter (and other holidays) with a new baby is that they don't really get to do much. No coloring eggs, no hunting for eggs, and no stuffing their little faces full of chocolate. My girls however- not a problem! I wish I had better pictures of their outfits, but that just didn't happen in the craziness of the day. Sophie's dress has been made for a few months now, but she has only worn it once, and Saturday night I was lamenting to myself about being a "bad mom" and not having anything special for Vivian to wear, so I went into my stash and grabbed the last of that wonderful Amy Butler Lotus fabric that I've had such a hard time cutting and made Vivian a super cute skirt and then a little applique for her top. It turned out cuter than I had hoped! Check out that pose! We watch Top Model, and Miss Tyra would say that is a FIERCE broken doll.

Little Sophie's dress. You can't see the bottom, but it is trimmed in the same orange polka dots.

Decorating eggs was messy business. I think we'll do stickers next year :)
The girls on Sunday morning. It didn't take long before they were in all the candy. And do you see those bunnies? They're the poseable ones! I had to get them as soon as I saw them. I totally remember having something similar when I was younger. All in all, it was a really good day. Church was wonderful as always and then we got together at mom and dad's for dinner. Whitley and Brent are here visiting for a while and our good friends Rachel and Matt joined us for dinner too; along with their adorable little boys.
