Easter, round one & Happy Birthday to me!

Nicole and the kids had a great birthday party for me.  They made a cake and Nicole made an excellent meal.  Brooks asked me if my friends from work were coming and Maddie said Happy Birthday Daddy about 1 thousand times.  How lucky I am to have such a great family.  We had an excellent celebration.
This weekend began our Easter celebration began this weekend our Easter celebration began.  We had a big Easter egg hunt with the kids from Brooks' school at the park in the neighborhood.  Brooks and Maddie took right to it.  They were so excited.  It was a lot of fun.
Dad and Mom came up to help us get an Easter picture (since we've sworn off the photo studios!).  They kids did pretty well and we got a couple of decent shots.  Dylan, on the other hand, despised the whole experience.
Brooks says when Dylan sleeps like this, his lips are a triangle (smart kid!).
This weekend, we took Maddie to target with all of her pacifiers in a bag so she could use them to purchase a Cinderella dress.  She did it.  We are so proud of her.  She has really done well without a pacifier all weekend.  I have noticed that she is more affectionate and wants to snuggle more.  That is a side effect we were not expecting, but have welcomed.  She has such a beautiful smile, it has been a pleasure to see more of that this weekend as well.  We have ourselves such a big girl now, but she is still my sweet baby girl.
