Easter and a week in VA

This is way late, but with Mark’s illness and my general tiredness, it got put off by about a month! But anyway, here it is.
We spent a lovely Easter weekend in VA. Gianna loved all things Easter: dying eggs, hunting for eggs, and getting stuff! It was super fun to spend the day with Doug’s whole family. Gianna and her cousin, Isabella, hunted for eggs several times and looked adorable in their dresses. (Isabella has a tutu on under hers. Too funny!) And though Doug will try to take credit, Nick made a fabulous meal!

The next weekend we went back to VA again because Doug was set to spend 4 days in Vegas and I wasn’t about to stay by myself with the two kids for all that time! Luckily, my parents were happy to oblige in helping me. Gianna and Mark had a great time with Grandma and Grandpa. I’m sure they were tired from all the playing. We also got to spend some more time with Isabella and Jack. Gianna and Isabella are getting to be quite good playmates. It’s so cute to watch them and listen to their conversations.

Mark really enjoys eating his own socks. Hilarious.

My new favorite picture of Mark. It's just so him.

Re. the last picture of Mark - do you just love it when you find a picture of your child that looks just like your child?

Thomas is really Grandma. You captured the essence of Easter really well in your videos. Very cute.
