Emma's First Easter in the USA

I don't recall what Emma has in her mouth in this picture as she likes to "savor" her last bites...I think this was after lunch, so it was probably a carrot or a Vanilla wafer. We didn't go overboard with celebration on Easter because Doug was working, Emma woke up with the sniffles and let's face it, Emma can't comprehend Easter or the Easter Bunny yet, so hopefully next year we will have more fun hiding eggs and talking up the Easter Bunny. Her basket was filled with some candy, new outfit, shoes and swimsuits...she starts swim class in June! We invited Uncle Jeff and Auntie T. over for dinner and had a nice evening of family time and playing. Emma really enjoyed taking things out of her basket and the bag that Jeff and T. brought her...she loves walking around with gift bags and taking objects in/out of them, so the bag was days of entertainment.

We gave her a piece of chocolate from her basket and we aren't sure if it was coincidence or not, but she went bananas afterwards, so we ate the rest of her chocolates, lol.

Emma is really into arranging and organizing objects right now. She has 4 chairs that stack together and she likes to move them about the room stacking, unstacking and putting the chairs in places adults would never dream of. I have a cellphone picture of the chairs after a bit of her redecorating and wish I could transfer the image to the blog because it's hilarious. At one point, she had the chairs arranged like a concert or wedding was about to take place!
