Hoppy Easter!

The Easter Bunny visited our house on Sunday which Charlie was very excited about... as long as he kept his distance and didn't go into Charlie's room to say hi. (I can't make this stuff up, people!) 

Anyway, both boys really enjoyed their Easter goodies, but Charlie was especially excited because he got a brand new bike! Now, I know that's a very large gift to give on Easter, but if you think about it, it's kind of cruel to give a 3-year-old a bike for Christmas. He won't even be able to ride the bike for at least three more months! So, we bit the bullet and got him a bike for Easter so he can ride it throughout the summer. He absolutely loves it!

Anyway, here are several pictures from our festive Easter morning. Enjoy!

This isn't a very good picture of their Easter baskets because I was scrambling
to take the photo before both boys charged into the room.
You know how that goes!

Well, the goodies seem to be a hit!

Both boys got cars in their basket. Did you know Hot Wheels makes themed cars for each holiday?
Mike would have been in heaven.

This is Charlie making car sounds. Just imagine it.

Both boys love to be read to and Mike is happy to oblige.

I love Chase's expression in this photo.

Yes, ANOTHER book about construction trucks. 

Chase got an Elmo book for Easter. He calls him "Melmo."

He's such a cutie patootie!

Chase really is a book hound. He LOVES them!

He's getting so big!

Charlie got another puzzle. What can I say? He's a genius.

The wheels are turning...

Chase, the talker, got a phone for Easter. He likes to answer it and say "Ae-woe."

Here's Charlie's bike... in the kitchen.

He loves it though, so that makes me happy.

He got a new helmet too! Isn't he cute?!

And this is Charlie's version of a drive-thru.
He loves to eat breakfast, lunch and dinner while sitting on the bike.

Seriously. Must we have the bike at the kitchen table?

Grammy and Poppy were with us Easter morning. They'd spent the last half of the week with the boys
while we were in Jamaica. (Grandma and Grandpa watched the boys the first part of the week.)

Ahh... finally. The bike is outside now. And Charlie is loving it!

Adorable!

Hope you had a "Hoppy" Easter too!
