And the hunt was on!

We hosted a small Easter Egg Hunt in our backyard yesterday. Our neighbors across the street came as well as another family in the community. We were watching Madelyn for the afternoon while her parents were at "Wicked," so we were glad she was here for the festivity. My neighbor Lisa and I made the Easter bags and we served some refreshments and had fun hanging out outside. We're glad the weather cooperated for us! I do love Easter! (Sorry Aaron's head got cut off in the second picture.)

Four-Generation Picture

What an opportunity to get a four-generation picture! (Aunt Martha, Mike, Grandpa Gibbons, and Dianne with Madelyn, Grant, and Aaron.)

It was so fun to get to spend some time with Dianne during her visit back from Brazil. We're also glad we could see Grandpa Gibbons and Aunt Sharon during their visit from Washington State. Grandpa Gibbons nicknamed Grant "Smiley" because of his almost-constant smile.

Baby Grant ~ 10 Months Old

See what I mean! Isn't this the most lovable little boy? I love how these pictures reveal two of Grant's most notable "qualities": one, his contagious smile, and two, his incessant drooling habit (notice the wet sweater vest.) He doesn't have any teeth yet, hence the continuous drooling action. He is the happiest, smiliest baby. He has also started to "talk" a lot. He has said "mama" a few times with the coaxing of Aaron and me. :) He is very active and wiggly and has a fun, sweet personality. Between him and Aaron, there is rarely a still moment in the home. We have a good time with baby Grant. He is a joy to have in our home!



And he loves his big brother Aaron. Can't you just see the love? :)
