Dearest Blessings~
Happy Easter!! Today is the day we celebrate Jesus and the miracle of the Resurrection! Thank you, Jesus, for eternal life! Thank you for covering my sins with Your blood! God is so good!
Grace, you slept in until 5:30am this morning. Wow! That was pretty impressive. You noodled into our bed at that point, but it was still pretty late for you. Joshua, you slept all night in your bed all by yourself! I'm sure all the fun and excitement of yesterday wore you all out! ;-)
We cut you all's nails this morning .... it's amazing how fast your nails grow! :-P
Once everyone was ready, we headed over to Holy Cross for Easter Sunday church service. We saw Grandpa Jim there and Fr. Gibson was so excited to see you both! In fact, lots of people were so glad to see you all! You all walked around during the sermon, though for the most part, you both behaved yourselves during the service. You two figured out how to work the water fountain! Joshua kept laughing as the water spouted! Oh, you all wandered into Fr. Gibson's office and Grace took a book off the shelf. :-P
Afterwards, we had lunch at Mimi's house. We also saw Grandpa Mike, Aunt Katie, and Uncle Brennan. You all got another Easter basket and did another egg hunt. And, you two got to play with a bubble machine outside. :-)

We were home by 3pm and Joshua continued to nap once home. Grace, you woke up once we got home and we were unsuccessful in getting you to nap again. So, we played and did some laundry. We also talked to Great Grandma on the phone and wished her a Happy Easter. I tried to get Grace to say something but she just played. Then, we 'face timed' with Gigi. She was sick, but we wished her a Happy Easter as well.
Oh, guess what .... I have no more pain from weaning. Grace, you are officially weaned. I'll continue to thaw a mommy milk snappy about every other day to mix with your milk until we're out. I think we have about a dozen still in the freezer. You're still not drinking a ton of milk .... you mostly like water. But, you're not dehydrated and have regular wet diapers, so I'm not too worried.
Oh my goodness .... I tried to cut Joshua's hair this evening since it was over his eyes and ears .... ugh! I didn't do so hot! Thankfully daddy helped and trimmed more when Joshua was in the bathtub! ;-)

Joshua, daddy got you to say some precious things this evening while practicing your words. You said:
'I love mama/mommy!'
'I love daddy!'
'I love baby!' (for Grace)
It was so precious!! I LOVE it! You repeated each word one at a time after daddy! I recorded you saying 'uh oh!' and 'I love mommy!' I played it over and over this evening! I will always cherish it!
Sleep tight you two!
I love you both so much!
