Easter Weekend

Our weekend was definitely full of activities.  Friday night we stayed home to help gear up for the holiday weekend.  Saturday and Sunday were days full of family.  My parents were in town for the day Saturday.  And since I had to work the late shift all last week, it helped contribute to my first failed holiday as a mother.  Since I didn't get off work until 8:00 pm all last week, I wouldn't get home until almost 9:00 leaving me minimal time to see Payton.  She was already asleep when I got home so I only got to see her before I went to work.  This means that I couldn't get to the store to get Payton's Easter basket until Saturday afternoon.  So my mom and I went to Lincoln to get supplies.  Here's what Heath and I gave her.

There's four outfits, new socks, two sleepers, sunscreen for summer and a toy bar for her carrier.

My parents also came equipped with an Easter basket for Payton:

Five dresses, an embroidered tote bag, a toy hammer (to bang on our table when she gets older...thanks mom & dad) and a plush toy cell phone.

Greg & Joyce's Easter basket for Payton packed a good punch too!

She got a swim shirt, activity balls, a swimsuit (adorable!) a pink Husker onesie and a cute summer outfit!  Totally excited about the swimsuit.  I have searched for one but the smallest I could find was for 12 months.  It's the perfect companion to the sunscreen we bought for her!

Here are the adorable shoes aunt Cassie got for Payton.

My sister got Payton this adorable dress and headband!  I'm starting to love the tu-tu dresses!

Here's Payton in her adorable Easter dress!  She was so tuckered out after church that I didn't get a picture of her awake in her dress.  She looked adorable and wore it like a champ!

I think with all the Easter clothes she got, added to all the summer clothes she already had, Payton is well prepared for summer!  Thanks everybody for all of the Easter gifts!  I can't wait until it gets warm enough to start dressing her in these clothes!  She's already growing so fast.  Today she wore a six month outfit that fit just about right!  We keep a Rubbermaid tub in her room and every few weeks I go through all of her clothes and put whatever she has outgrown inside.  It's filling up quickly!
