Easter!

The day before Easter we went to our Ward's Easter Egg Hunt. Mara totally didn't get it, but it was still fun for Mom and Dad.



It wouldn't be Easter without a new Easter Dress, right? Off we went to the mall and found this:


Of course we then had the traditional Easter Basket off goodies. Mara's favorite item? The $5 golf club set. I think it's my favorite thing also. I can't get enough of Sean and Mara "golfing" around our living room, moving from "hole" to "hole".


I'll have to post a picture of them golfing another time. All in all Easter was a blast! It was Mara's first, second holiday ever. Does that make sense? Anyways, Happy Easter a week late.

I may be biased...

...but I'm pretty certain that Mara has the best daddy in the entire world. No seriously. It's no wonder why she likes him most. I would too if I was her. Let me give you a little look into the life of Mara with her daddy:

8:00ish am: Daddy gets me out of my crib, tickles me until I'm screaming, changes nasty all night diaper, sings a song or two, takes me to mommy's bed to wake her up. If she's too ornery that means just me and daddy get to play for a while until mommy wakes up!! Yay! Most of the time he even lets me just run around in my diaper. That's the way I like to be! Sometimes he even dresses me up in fun hats socks and shoes too!

8:15: Play with toys while daddy watches until I'm so hungry my tummy is going to start eating itself

8:30: Daddy makes me oatmeal, gives me my favorite food ever BANANAS! He doesn't try to feed me stuff I don't like like mommy does.

9:00: We go wake up mommy...hope she's in a better mood by now!

9:15: Play, play, play. And I'm not talking about a typical play session...he gives me piggy backs, pushes me around on my car, gets me to walk, reads me lots of stories, gets out toys only daddy cares to take the time to set up like my tee pee, and my tunnels, and the tent! He also likes to make me forts!

11:30 Mmm..lunch time! Again, he feeds me the best stuff ever!

Noon: BATH TIME! My favorite part of the whole day. Daddy washes my hair first and then we play! We color with my bath crayons all over the tub, sometimes he refills the tub til it reaches my chin so I get to "swim" around! That's so much fun I can't help but squeal and splash the whole time! Daddy sometimes gets so wet that HE has to change HIS clothes by the time we're done! He even lets me stay in there until my hands get all wrinkled like an old lady.


What? You don't believe me? I have the pictures to prove it.
