Easter Bunny!

On Sunday we took the girls to have photos taken with the Easter bunny at the mall. Adalyn just adored the bunny last year and she was very excited to see him the week before as we walked past so we prepared to come back for a cute photo. I bought the girls cute matching dresses from The Children's Place for a great price and Adalyn wore a big white hair bow and little Emery even wore a little hair bow too. We tried out our new double stroller and it worked great! Adalyn likes her "new ride." Grandma Jill met us there and Dana and Justin came to visit us and watch the girls get their photos taken. After the photos, we all ran some errands and did a little shopping in the mall and ate lunch at The Mustard Seed.

Prior to the photos, we waited for everyone just behind the photo backdrop at the fountain. Some time before, we told Adalyn that her mommy and daddy first met there, at the fountain when I was on a break from my very first job at Sears and we each had a friend meeting there and we both happened to be along. Adalyn remembers we told her about that, so she started saying "where mommy and daddy met" over and over as we waited. It was pretty cute to hear her say that while we admired our two girls and thought about all that had transpired in the past eleven-and-a-half years since our first meeting.

When we got to the bunny, Adalyn couldn't stop dancing around and waving to him, she was SO excited! When it was her turn, she ran right up to him and gave him a huge hug. She seemed a little surprised when we put Emery on his lap first and then set her up there but she was grinning like crazy for every photo. Emery did great, only six weeks old and sitting on the Easter bunny for the first time. She looked at the camera when the photographer made funny noises to get their attention.



Big feet are great for hopping!




The photographer told Adalyn to hug the bunny but she couldn't really turn to hug him so we got this cute pose and I like how Emery was looking straight at the camera


This one is so funny--Adalyn was like "what are you doing?" when bunny patted her shoulder


I can't wait to color eggs and look for eggs and baskets!
