Happy Easter!

We started Easter weekend early by heading down the shore on Thursday and boy am I glad we did.  It was the sunniest 3 days I can remember in a long time.  No better place to be than OC, NJ :)

We took it easy the first day down there.  Claire hung out with her Wubbanub (a little puppy doll attached to a pacifier)...she just loves it.

And got to spend some more time with Winnie Poo.  She's really funny with Winnie.  She can't take her eyes off of her whenever she's around.  And when Winnie's not looking she'll reach for her and wants nothing more than to pet her but the second Winnie turns towards Claire, she freaks out.  I think the expression on her face in this pic is a pretty good representation of her mixed feelings...   

Easter celebrations started on Saturday with an Easter Egg hunt.

Claire's big cousins had a blast!

While Claire called dibs on the biggest basket of all :)

After the hunt, Grace and Maddie helped Claire open her Easter present.

Her first babydoll!  Again, she might have mixed feelings :)

Haha just kidding, she loved it.  After playing with her new doll for a little, we headed up to the beach for some kite flying.

Grace was a pro...

As was Maddie.

Claire caught some air of her own...having some fun with Daddy.

And then told Nana ALL about it.

She hung in the sand with Grace.

And then took it easy with Nana and Luke before heading back to the house.

Where we sang Happy Birthday to the newest 2 year old.

Who Claire loves to hang with :)

Nothing better than spending a few days with the cousins.

And Mommy & Daddy of course.

On Sunday, we headed back to Philly bright and early and got into our fancy Easter clothes.

Mommy's side of the family came over for a delicious brunch.  Claire got to hang with lots of fam including Aunt Lisa and Brian.

Aunt Laura and Lilly.

And Grammy (peace Lill').

Claire and her BFF/little cousin Lilly have a blast together.  They laugh...

Suck on their fingers...

And even nap at the same time.  Funny girls.

It was a wonderful Easter weekend with our silly little girl!
