Is it Spring Yet?

I have finally decided that I am not a cold weather person. In hope that Spring will come a little bit sooner, I have decided to start thinking about Easter and what the Easter bunny will be bringing Delilah ;)

We have always had baskets for Easter, thanks Mom! They were always the best and probably have a lot to do with why Easter is one of my favorite holidays. My husband's family always made "nests" outside for the Easter bunny to drop off the toys and candy, so this year I think we will be incorporating both traditions and hopefully Delilah will one day love Easter as much as I do. With that being said, this is what I have put together for her basket/nest this year!


native shoes:: I have been wanting to get these for Delilah for a very long time, they will be perfect for the Springs and Summers in Texas, now just to decide on a color.

swim suit:: I saw this bathing suit last year and am pretty excited about seeing Delilah wear it this year!

book:: This book. It is so cute! And I will never pass up a chance to buy a book ;)

chalk:: Delilah has never used sidewalk chalk before, and I think she is going to love it! I am really happy to find this brand, which is safe for the itty bittys.

puzzle:: She is really getting into puzzles and stacking, so I thought this alphabet puzzle would be perfect! 


There will of course be some candy, chocolate, and eggs to polish everything off. 

:)

I hope everyone has a great week!

Delilah's First Easter

I hope everyone had a great Easter weekend! We did! However, Delilah decided not to sleep either nights, Saturday night was so bad that the only way she would sleep is on me. So we were pretty much zombies yesterday, but it was still a lot of fun! And you have to love all of the Easter outfits! We managed to have three super cute wardrobe changes!


We started the weekend driving to Houston to spend half of the weekend with my family. My mom cooked our all-time favorite meal: chicken pot pie, sweet potato casserole, squash casserole, and finally a pecan roll with chocolate sauce. It. Was. So. Good. Delilah got her first visit from the Easter bunny! Yogurt melts, onsies, and a mini peep! She took one bit of the peep and literally threw it back behind her. I guess she is not a fan!



After a short visit in Houston, we loaded up and drove to La Grange to visit Byron's family. We had out first post baby church trip, which went surprisingly well. Thank you to the Easter bunny for those yogurt melts! We took pictures in the beautiful bluebonnets, Delilah of course ate some as well ;) After a Easter egg hunt, another huuuuuge meal, and one three helpings of banana pudding, we headed home.




.easter outfit no longer available.

We learned that Delilah loves broccoli, does not like peeps, likes eating flowers, and does not sleep well in her pack n play. If anyone has advice on how to travel easier with a baby, please let me know! What are the musts for you?
