Happy Easter!!

I can't help but remember that last Easter weekend I was huge, swollen, and about to deliver a baby within 24 hours. We spent that Sunday day at my aunt's house with family before heading to the hospital late that afternoon to be induced. Carter was born at 12:36 pm on Monday.

THEN
This was the last picture taken of me before labor started. 
It pains me to look at this picture of myself... WOW!

This Easter Sunday was in many ways a repeat from last year. Same Aunt's house with the same family members and similar weather, subtract one ginormous baby bump, add one perfect and beautiful almost 1 year old little boy. The similarities from this year and last year are so meaningful to me given how special each of the times in my life were. ♥

NOW
We couldn't be happier!!! Love our little family!

Friday afternoon and all day Saturday were spent at Eric's parent's house with them, Eric's grandparents, sister, and our nephews. Carter had so much fun playing with the twins and spending time on the farm.

Playing around on the pier.
The boys did a little fishing, Mommy watched.
Splish splash

Visiting the cows with Grandma
Stormie had to join them
More fishing and playing down by the lake
Carter had so much fun swinging
And crazy Uncle Eric chased the twins around.
They laughed and laughed... so cute!!

We had a great weekend spending time with our families. Hope you all had a wonderful Easter also!
