Happy Easter..one week early


Hey, Dougie. DeeDee and Pappa Mike met you and your mommy and daddy for dinner tonight. We really wanted to see you since we will be out of town next week. We will miss seeing you on your first Easter. I know that you will enjoy your first Easter Egg Hunt. This year you will need some help, but it will be a good chance for you to learn the ropes so that you can hunt for the candy all on your own next year. 

Since we will not see you next week, DeeDee and Pappa Mike brought you your Easter present. DeeDee made you a shopping cart / high chair cover to keep the germs away when you start riding in a shopping cart or sitting at the big table in a high chair in a restaurant. The fabric is a Thomas the Train design, which your mommy and I chose because your daddy likes trains so much. The cover has places where you can hang your toys so that they don't fall on the floor when they slip out of your hands, and it folds up into its own bag so that it will be easy for your mommy and daddy to carry. Hope you enjoy it, Dougie. You are not quite ready for it yet, but it won't be long until you are.


You are getting so big. The infant insert is out of your carseat and you have started to hold on to things. Today you kept grabbing the string of your pacifyer and yanking it out of your mouth. You really wanted that pacifyer, so your mommy had to help you keep it in your mouth.  Pappa Mike couldn't get over how big your hands have gotten and how much you are using them. You have also started smiling. Yesterday, your mommy finally got a picture of your smile. Since we could not get you to smile today, I am posting the picture that your mommy took yesterday. Your smile is so cute...I'm sure that we will get many more pictures of you smiling for the camera in the days to come.

We will miss you on Easter, Dougie. Have fun and eat some chocolate for DeeDee and Pappa Mike!!
