Landon's First Easter


Landon's first Easter egg! He slept through everyone dying eggs, but we all had a good time!
We all survived Landon's first road trip AND weekend away! I really felt like I was packing up everything in the house, but I have to say I think I did pretty well. We didn't run out of bottles, formula, or diapers. He didn't even wear half the clothes I brought either. Thank you so much to Barry for letting us invade your house for the weekend.

Landon did great in the car, he is so far a better traveler than his daddy! Although, the both slept pretty much the entire way to Boca while Aunt Megan and I hung out in the front seat talking and singing. I am so thankful that Landon doesn't mind his car seat and doesn't mind being in there all day! It makes my life a whole lot easier.

Landon met so many family members, including his Great-Grandma Effie and his Great-Grandpa Don. Not many kids get to meet their great grandparents, Landon is pretty lucky!

The Easter Bunny was very good to Landon. He had a basket full of treats! The bunny gave him a little soccer ball, a "My first Easter" rattle, an Easter book, 3 Elmo books, and his first chocolate rabbit. Landon told Chad and I that we can share the chocolate with him. He is such a good kid!


The bunny wasn't the only person who gave Landon presents. Aunt Megan gave him 2 ECU onesies and an ECU hat, Nana and Pops gave Landon a card with money for college, (Great) Aunt Bambi and (Great) Uncle Don gave him a cute outfit, (Great) Aunt Patti and (Great) Uncle Gary gave him a fun toy, an outfit, some bubbles, and a rabbit stuffed animal, (Great) Grandma and (Great) Grandpa gave him a large blue rabbit stuffed animal, and cousins Lisa, Justin, and Emily gave him a cute outfit. Landon is so grateful to have such wonderful family!


Landon was really glad that Aunt Megan came for Easter because he was able to go swimming for the first time! Since I couldn't go in the pool and Chad wouldn't because of his ears, Aunt Megan said she wanted to take him in. Landon's swimsuit was pretty big on him and they don't really make swim diapers in his size, but he loved the water! He is too young to go under still, but he liked just being held and "swimming" with his cousins.

After our eventful Easter filled with an egg hunt, egg tosses, bocci ball, and LOTS of food we headed back to Tampa on Monday. Aunt Megan had a flight to catch at 7 PM and Chad had to work at 4. We had breakfast at Aunt Patti and Uncle Gary's house and then headed home to Tampa. We stopped for lunch in Port Charlotte and had a quick visit with (Great) Aunt Maureen. It was nice to see her even though it was quick.



We had about an hour to waste before Aunt Megan had to get to the airport so we went to Crabby Bills on the water to eat. Landon had some Newborn Enfamil while Megan and I dined on some seafood appetizers. It was a nice way to end a fun weekend with Megan. We were sad she had to leave, but we are looking forward to seeing her in a few weekends for Landon's christening in North Carolina.
