Somebunny Loves You!

A really fun time of year, my sweet Lolabug. And you're figuring out more and more of the world around you.

First, Spring Break. We took a girls' trip to visit your aunt, your cousin, and GiGi, and you & your cousin are a hoot. He's interested in you -- and you're interested in his toys.

And I learned something about you, Lolabug -- you can be sneaky :) When your cousin isn't sure about sharing, he lets us know. When you don't want to share, you keep quiet -- and push your cousin off a toy bench!

Once we discovered this, we called for a very tenuous truce:


(Look at you, trying not to cry!)

 But you two are sweet playmates, too. Your aunt set up a Easter Egg Hunt playdate with cousin Ryan and one of his friends, and you took to egg hunting right away. You snagged a heap of them -- but then crawled into Ryan's outdoor playhouse and started unstacking your eggs to share.

And beyond your eggstravaganza playdate, you two had fun, in a similar stage of play and movement at last. I loved seeing your aunt love on you (while I got to love on your sweet cousin) and the two kiddos interested in many of the same things.

We had fun at the park, riding strange beasts...

And at the children's museum, playing at tea and a giant Light Bright board...

And I had so, so much fun watching you explore the Tot Spot at the children's museum.  You crawled and climbed and laughed and flirted your way through the playscapes.  It's impossible not to smile at the fun you're having these days.  And I love your curious, figuring-it-out faces just as much.

Then, home again to Daddy. And when the "real" bunny days approached, we had to go find some fun as a threesome.  We found us a ragamuffin bunny and snapped a few pics.  (This one went SO much better than the attempt with Santa :)

Of course, Easter means much more than bunnies and eggs -- but bunnies and eggs are a good start for our little family.  And thank to your GiGi, you had a special dress for Easter day -- a dress that made sure to show just how special you are to all of us.

At first, you weren't so sure about the dress, even with your daddy and dog nearby...

But then our sweet girl reached a truce with the dress, too.

We had a lovely Easter day, made even more lovely by reflecting on this time and anticipating time to come.  Your little personality is funny and thoughtful and loud and quiet and silly and serious -- all wrapped up in one little you.  We're so glad you're our little bunny.

'Til next time, Love to My Lorelai :)
