While we were away, our kids had nothing short of a complete blast. Grandma and Grandpa partied with them for 24+ hours. They played dress up, died Easter eggs, stayed up WAY too late (per Grandma), had Mickey Mouse pancakes for breakfast, saw Horton Hears a Who, and had a birthday party false alarm (turned out it had been rescheduled and I'd missed the change. Oops.).
When the kids were dying and decorating eggs with Grandma and Grandpa, they were horrified that all of the egg glitter paint had dried up. Never fear, Grandpa to the rescue! Our eggs were lovingly and freely decorated with misprinted address labels and highlighters. :) So funny.
Where the real fun was this weekend: dying/coloring/stickering eggs with Grandma and Grandpa.
Letting their Easter Baskets carry on the tradition of "pink baby" and "blue baby" (as Kiana called the twins for 12 months of their lives).
Isabel styled herself in her Easter fake-crocs, Easter shirt, Easter headband, birthday hat and a few other "famous" accessories.
Milo pretended that his dinosaur was the dad of his Peeps. (These were alternately called "Cheeps", "Petes", and "Cheats". And, no, he has not yet consumed even one of them.)
Isabel posing in her new Easter dress (courtesy of Aunty Lissa and Uncle J--for her birthday). Milo was busy running away from the satanic and predatory geese that populate our church parking lot 8 months of the year.

What fun grandparents!!
Lucky kids, lucky grandparents. I'm just a little bit jealous but mostly happy.
I'm so proud that Isabel has become a professional "accessorize-er". She's a girl after my own heart. You just can't have too many hair decorations and bracelets!
As far as those peeps go, mail them to Abbie. She loves them.
I love the phone picture. Fun Easter. I forgot to even boil eggs!
I was so happy to read your comment!
It's so nice to find someone who is going through the same thing. I would love to know more about your story. It really does help to have people to talk to that know exactly what you are dealing with...I've decided that adoption is not for whimps! Which means we are totally strong amazing women... or we are kidding ourselves that we are:)
Eitherway we are in this and we are committed so good luck to you and your husband. And e-mail me sometime aricta@webband.com

What fun Easter baskets! Porter is going to die that Issy and Milo now have crocs too!
