Easter

The Easter Bunny had to make a stop at Uncle Josh & Aunt Danila's house on Easter Sunday.... Daddy was upset that Hannah didn't get any candy this year, since last year for some reason she got a lot. This year, Hannah got a swimsuit, a bunny, some bubbles, a book, some crayons, and yogurt bites. She LOVES yogurt bites, as you'll notice from the pictures....

Yummy....
And.....once she was all dressed for church we had to take lots of pictures of Hannah in her Easter dress (bought at a neighborhood sale at our community recreation center for $4 - I'm proud of that shopping excursion).

She is never far from that yellow bag!
How many yogurt bites do you think she gets in a handful?

Easter Dinner #1

My side of the family had Easter dinner on Saturday, the day before Easter, in Pennsylvania. Susan (my cousin) & her husband Gary hosted -- she lives just about 1/2 way between Karen (in VA) & me (in OH), so it works well. They put on quite the spread! We also celebrated all of the "spring" birthdays in the family (Brian, Karen, Michael, Daniel, Susan & Gary) -- pretty much everyone except Jon & me! Plus, this year Brian, Karen & Susan all turned 30!!! Welcome to the club : )

Here are some of the pictures that my mom took.... Enjoy! Liam feeds his new bunny with a shovel

Liam & Hannah are itching to go outside

We took a group picture, but it's on Susan's camera,
so a shot of almost everyone lounging will have to do for now...

Susan is having a baby in June!!!

She's not going to be happy at me posting the picture,

but it's the only one I've got & you can almost see her cute belly!

Great Grandma Catney

After a serious heart attack after Christmas and long hospital stay,

she's living with Aunt Patty & Uncle John.

Now she is on oxygen & doing quite well.

We're so lucky to have her around &

for her to get to enjoy her great grandbabies!

Hannah & Liam are playing on the treadmill???

They look so happy!

What great smiles.

Hannah was obsessed with climbing into Liam's chair and putting the tray on her lap. She has her own chair, but apparently it's not as much fun as Liam's.

And...here are Karen's pictures from Easter....in case you want to see more!

Chocolate Cake

There's no doubt about it -- just like her Great Grandma Catney -- my kid loves her chocolate cake! This started off as my piece, but these days I can't eat anything without her grabbing for it and taking a bite (or in this case, picking up the entire piece and trying to show the WHOLE THING in her mouth at once -- I guess she learned that from Daddy).

Liam!

We got to see our nephew, Liam, for the first time since Thanksgiving over Easter weekend when we went to Pennsylvania. I didn't take many pictures because I was having to much fun playing and visiting, but my mom and sister took plenty, so I'll do another post with their pictures! Liam was excited to see Hannah and gave her a big hug!
He's just getting so BIG. He's walking (actually running) everywhere and is so much fun. I love getting to see him and Hannah play together. Although he's got a few pounds on her, they're actually about the same height.

Piano

Aunt Danila is teaching Hannah how to "play" the piano -- we had no idea how much Hannah would enjoy "playing" it. Hannah had a great time banging on the keys and jabbering away. Of course, now I am scouring craigslist to try to find a small upright for our house so we don't have to go to Pittsburgh just to play the piano!

Aunt Danila is such a good teacher - look at her proper wrist posture!

Hannah "singing"
Umm...no, you don't play with your foot honey.

I LOVE THIS PICTURE!!!!!

This one is pretty good too!
