Easter Sunday

Easter Sunday, we all got dressed up for church. Jacob wore his new interview-suit, that has yet to see an interview. But everyone agrees once someone sees him in it, they'll hire him on the spot ;-) He looked sharp!

Nathan even wore his own little suit and looked so adorable! For a moment that morning, I looked at him and he looked so much more mature. And grown up. Then he sent me back to reality when he tried to steal my toothbrush before leaving for church. Little stinker. But an adorable stinker ;-)

And then there was Faith - her Easter dress was a 6 month size. I bought it last fall at a consignment sale and when I saw how slowly she was growing (compared to her tank of a brother), I thought it might fit her for Easter. Wrong. She grew into and out of size 6 months in less than a week!! Wow. But Granny came to the rescue and decked her out in an adorable yellow Easter dress - complete with tights and new sparkly white sandals! Thank you, Granny!

I even got a new dress - thanks to birthday gifts from both moms :) Thank you!

So... we're all dressed up. What better time for a family picture, right??? HA HA

There was so much kicking, screaming and crying... and that was just from me :-) Why does it have to be SO HARD to get 2 kids, under 2, to not cry, smile, and look at the camera. I would have just taken one or two of those things! Whew... we tried... indoors & outdoors... as long as we had patience. And failed. But at least we got something.

The only way we could get Nathan to stop crying, was to hand him the Wii remote and turn on Mario Kart.... thats why neither him or Faith would look at the camera. But at least there's no crying.


While Nathan threw his fits, we tried to get some photos of Faith outside. But she wouldn't look at the camera.

And finally, after all but giving up, I got Nathan happy by chasing him up and down the hallway and sneaking a photo of him. He really looked cute in his suit - he'll have to wear it again one day soon ;-)

Picture taking will not get easier as they get older..lol. I still can't get all 3 of mine to look at the same time!

Great pictures though!
