Hello, Easter Bunny!

Last Sunday my mom and I took Charlie and Lily to the mall to meet the Easter bunny and get new shoes. We were the first in line to meet the bunny and Charlie and Lily did great. They were so happy to see him. They each gave him a big hug and sat right in his lap with no problem. I really wanted a picture of them with the Easter bunny, so I was a happy camper when we were done. The bunny visit went great. The shoe shopping? That was another story. Lily refused to take off her boots, which was necessary in order to have her feet measured and to try on shoes. So she shrieked and screamed and cried like she was being tortured, refused to stand to be measured and refused to try to walk in the shoes we put on her. Her crying and freaking got Charlie all worked up too, and he proceeded to run all around the store like a maniac and then started crying for no reason. No shoes were purchased. But hey, we got our picture...

I don't think I've commented on your blog since you had the triplets but I just wanted to let you know I feel your pain. My oldest just turned two in February, the youngest turned one in February, and let me tell you...if I survive these toddler years, it's going to be a miracle. My Addison can throw a tantrum like no other. Thankfully most take place at home, but we did have one episode of my husband having to carry her out over his shoulder while shopping at Hobby Lobby. Don't you just love when everyone stares as if though they never experienced such things with their own children? Happy Easter to you, Joe, and your beautiful babies!

Lol, Katie! You'll make it. This was the first time I've had to carry screaming children out of someplace, but I doubt it will be the last. Happy Easter to you and your family too!
