Easter #2

Fiona last year at this time...
Only a year later and our big girl searched for treats...eggs full of dried fruit and puffs Carolyn brought over in the afternoon. Grammy unveiled a new swing that was supposed to be a birthday gift but as it was too pretty of a day she handed it over early. We had to move our festivities to the driveway when the sprinklers suddenly sprang into action.

Aside from asking "hut's that?" at everything, sometimes I think she says "no" and she's quite fond of calling for "kitty." Her aversion to meats has passed as long as she's able to hold a stick of chicken and bite off pieces herself ( I give her those pre-cooked strips from the cold cut section) and she's drinking whole milk mostly. We try for a mornign and evening bottle with cup in between but success depends on her mood.

The big day, that happens to be just 36 hours away, we plan on celebrating by taking Fiona to one her favorite, loud and colorful, breakfast diners for pancakes and whipped cream. Daddy has a few work obligations in the afternoon and Fiona has her one year MD check-up (poor booh needs a few immuniztions). We're saving the family cake and presents until Saturday as we all need to celebreate surving this first year!
