Addi Kate's First Easter...

This past Easter Sunday was extremely special for us...Addi Kate's first Easter.

We woke up early and took a few family photos before we headed to church...


LOVE our family of three!!!

Mommy and Addi...


Daddy and Addi...


Our precious little girl...


And of course Mommy had to take a picture with her bow :)


Addison slept through the entire church service and I was SURE the music would wake her...but I think she was used to it from hearing it when she was in my belly.


We came home and did a few preparations for our Easter get-together. We had close to 30 people at our home and we enjoyed the fellowship with friends and family.

We put on our Easter Egg Hunt attire...


Took another family picture...


And then set out to look for Easter eggs...


Addi slept the entire time, but Mommy found a few eggs for her basket :)



It is even CUTER in person :) Perfect for our sweet girl. 

The Easter Bunny filled her basket with new pacifers, paci wipes, a hot pink ruffled onesie, and a few HAIRBOWS!!



Dma, Jilly and Pops, and the Milonas family brought Addi some sweet little Easter goodies...


I'd say she had a pretty fantastic 1st Easter!!!

At the end of the day, while Addi napped on the floor in her nursery, I sat and thought about the true meaning of this holiday. Easter is a time to celebrate new life and fresh beginnings. Jesus rose from the dead so that we would have everlasting life. We are SO thankful for His undying love and sacrifice and for giving us the most precious new life and the family we've always dreamed of.

Happy First Easter to our sweet Addision Kate!
