Easter Holidays

So we went down to Magrath on the 1st of April and stayed until the 11th. It was so much fun to stay at my parents house. Dex finally got to meet all his great grandparents and the extended family. It was Dex's first Easter and ofcourse he got very spoiled. He got his own pair of sunglasses and several new outfits.

We had his shower while we were down and it was so nice. Joni and Aunt Mona threw the best baby shower I have ever been to. And ofcourse Dex was spoiled!!

We also took him swimming for the very first time. He loves the water!!

We had our annual Easter Egg Hunt that Aunt Shyreece throws for us every year. We were told that as soon as you have a child you don't get to participate anymore but Aunt Reece let us do it this one last time. Next year Dex will be walking so I guess that is when we get the boot.

Nick had to go back to Edmonton on sunday for work but Dex and I stayed and spent most of the time visiting family and friends. That is the one thing that I miss most about Magrath. I wish we lived closer so we could see them a lot more. Although I really do love living in Edmonton.

The reason we stayed for so long was because it was my best friend Brittany's wedding and I was her maid of honor. It was a beautiful ceremony and I must admit that I cried just a little bit. I still can't believe she is married but I am so happy for her. Jay is an awesome guy and they are perfect for each other.

It was such a fun day and it was so nice because I got to hang out with a lot of my good friends. Some of them being my old roomies. I absolutely love these girls and I love hanging out with them. We will be friends for life.

Nick came back for the wedding and took care of Dex while I tended to my maid of honor duties. I missed him so much. It was really the first time that we had been apart since we have been married but I survived. He is such a good husband and an amazing dad!! He loves spending time with Dex and I!!

I really enjoyed my little holiday and it was really hard to leave but I knew it was time to come home. I love spending time with my family. I have the best parents in the whole world. They would do anything for me and they absolutely love Dex!! I don't think I changed one diaper while I was home!! I had so much fun hanging out with my sisters. I miss them so much!! Hallie and Kinzee fought over Dex and would sneak off with him every chance that they got. I truly felt blessed this Easter. I was surrounded by my friends and family and I had an amazing time. I am so grateful for Nick and Dexter!! I absolutely love being a mom and I can't wait to have 4 or 5 more!!
