Happy Easter 2010

Since we weren't with extended family this Easter Sunday as we have been in the previous years, I didn't feel motivated to get a photo of everyone dressed up for church. We got up for 7AM mass so we could avoid the crowds. We then went home for a little while, then went to The Cheesecake Factory for brunch/lunch. After that, we just relaxed at home. As you can see from the photo above, the boys played video games.

Natalie and Eric watched her new "Princess and the Frog" DVD from her Aunt C. The two of them were adorable lying together on the sofa upstairs. Eric has a funny way of laying sort of half on and half off of the couch (and his bed at night), a habit that has started recently. He refused to take a nap so Patrick and I took our naps without him.

Eric maintained his good spirits for most of the day, even without the nap. He was singing songs with his microphone in hand and Natalie was "playing" on her Hannah Montana guitar. His shorts were a little big and they kept falling as he was running around. I would pull up his shorts then immediately he would run around trying to get them to fall off. Of course when they did fall off, he and Natalie would burst out laughing. The rest of us had to admit that it was pretty hilarious.

Patrick made some salmon for dinner and we watched TV together. We had some great times even without extended family around. We have a busy week ahead. Both sets of grandparents, my sister C and niece A, and Natalie's godfather G will all be here for her First Communion. We'll also be celebrating the Little Man's THIRD birthday. I'll be taking lots of photos then. :)
