Happy Easter!


Siena's first big outing was to church for Easter Mass. She was very good and made it through the entire Mass. She even got showered with Holy Water and a blessing from the priest at communion.

Her Aunt Angela got her an adorable Easter dress - a yellow flower sundress with a matching crop cardigan - but it was too cold to wear it. I am sure she will good get use out of it this summer when we go home to Texas. She ended up wearing a sweet pink corduroy dress. It was for 0-3 months but was way too big on her. We put tights on her, too, since it was cold and they were too long. They hung out the bottom with no feet inside. Pretty funny to look at.

What fit her best was a sweater that my mother knit for her. When my mom came, she surprised us with a sweater and matching bonnet, booties, and blanket. (She is still working on the blanket.) It was the most special gift. I couldn't believe how great they turned out. She did such a good job.

After Mass, we had roast pork that Oscar had picked up at a local farmer's market, which was delicious. I thought it was so special that Siena was born so close to Easter and was overjoyed that we were able to make it to Mass.
Her Easter outfit. This bonnet is not the one my mom knit but a corduroy one she got for her.

The happy family.
