Easter 2011

We had such a great time this year on Easter!! I watch another little boy during the week (Parker) who is 5 weeks younger than Lincoln. He is such a sweet little boy and his family is so kind! His grandparents just live about 15 minutes from me and stop by often to visit with us during the day. They are so thoughtful and always bring a little gift for Lincoln on each holiday. Lincoln loves playing with Parker's "Papa and Bobo" and we really appreciate all the kindness they have shown us. Most of our family is back in Idaho/Utah (where we are from) and so Parker's grandparents were so sweet and invited us to their home for Easter Brunch! We had such a great time and they were wonderful hosts. Unfortunately I got there and realized the battery on my camera was dead! I was so bummed, but Parker's parents were so sweet and took a bunch of pictures for us.

Lincoln and his best buddy Parker (there was a pinwheel on the table that they had their eyes on) :)

Lincoln had fallen on the sidewalk the day before so he had a big ol' bruise on his forehead :(

Playing with the pinwheels! Funny how the $1 toys are always their favorites :)
I really should have gotten a white collared shirt that buttoned at the bottom, because for the life of me, I could not keep Lincoln's shirt tucked in! It is untucked in most of these pictures, because I would tuck it in, and then not more than two seconds later Lincoln would reach down, to grab a new toy, and the shirt would get untucked again.

Parker's grandparents got Lincoln this cell phone where you can record your own voice into it! He loves that he can "call" Dad during the day on his new phone!

They had an egg hunt outside and Lincoln had so much fun!




We never were able to get a family photo with Lincoln looking at the camera...



Lincoln was really sleepy! He hadn't taken a nap yet and by then end of the afternoon was really close to a meltdown because he was so tired.
Parker's grandparents have a beautiful yard and all the flowers had recently bloomed!

We tried to get a photo of the two boys together, but it never seemed to work :)
Parker's parents also took some video footage and put it on youtube here is the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=srDvCuFauzY

We really had a great time and were so thankful towards Parker's grandparents for opening their home to us!
