Celebrating!

We had all kinds of fun goodies for the eight kids at the party. Party hats, those things that unroll when you blow on them, bags of treats from the dollar bins at Target (specially and painstakingly selected for each child by Hannah, "primo party planner".), balloons, and bunny ears to ring in the Easter season. There were seven adults at the party so we were outnumbered by children... and it was FUN!!!!

Delaney and Sarah found these to be a bit tricky:

Will this child ever smile on cue???Hannah and our little bunnyThe cousins! From left to right: JoJo, Sarah, and Christopher (my sister's kids), Julia (my brother's daughter), Delaney (doesn't she look excited?!), Hannah, and Emma, and Tyler (my brother's son). Preparing to sing Happy BirthdayWe still can't believe we're a family of FIVE!

Here, Gram, taste this!

Meeting baby Christopher... finally!

This adorable little nephew of ours is sixteen days younger than Emma. Missy lives in New Hampshire, so it's been difficult to get together since they were born. Everyone was thrilled to have him here for a few days!

My mom and dad and their littlest grandchildren!

Sunday afternoon puzzles

Hannah's friend Madeline came over to play this afternoon. The 3 girls enjoyed doing puzzles and being silly. Here they are!

Delaney... our big girl!

This afternoon, Delaney took her first nap in her new big-girl bed, in her new big-girl room. She loved it! We were planning to move her crib in so that Emma can finally move into the nursery, but if Delaney does well in the bed we'd be quite fine with that!

New 'do!
