What else did you expect? [An Easter Post]

If you thought you weren’t going to get to catch a glimpse of what we spent our Easter weekend doing, then you were wrong.  🙂 It took me a day or two to get all of the pictures edited, but I finally finished last night at about 10:30. We had a chaotic and exhausting weekend and I’m very happy to say that it is over. Little Man is having a hard time readjusting to Hubby and I being here so we’ve been battling bedtime for several days.

The only person who is able to get him to even stay in his bed, is Hubby’s mom. If anyone else tries to lay him down, he gets up and follows them out {He’s in a toddler bed, in case you missed that post earlier}. Saturday night my MIL had to stay with Hubby’s grandmother…leaving us at home to put Little Man in bed ourselves. Needless to say at 9:30, after almost 2 hours of trying, Little Man was still awake and cranky. We ended up driving him to Hubby’s grandmothers house just so my mother in law could put him to bed. Talk about a mommy fail. I’ve been having a hard time with that.

Not to mention, Hubby’s egotistical, thinks she knows everything about everything Aunt smashed my mothering skills to everyone in the family on Sunday and had the audacity to act like I didn’t know she did it. If you caught any of my tweets from Sunday, then you probably noticed my posts about my high blood pressure and frustration levels running on over drive. That would be why. I was very, very irritated. Other than that, however, we enjoyed our weekend. Hubby took me to see The Last Song on Sunday night and we went to Olive Garden for a little “us” time. It was much needed and the movie was fantastic! I was very impressed with the selection of actors for the movie. Definitely one I could sit through in theatres again.

Anywho. Now that I am done rambling, I’ll show you the pictures from Easter. 🙂 I know you are dying to see them.

This is the attitude we had for most of the day Sunday. The pollen index up here is SKY HIGH and Little Man’s allergies aren’t liking it.

All of the Great-Grandsons, except for one…he wasn’t there yet.

Hubby’s family [minus me because I’m behind the camera.]

Little Man with Mama Nell…

We did manage to get him to hunt a few eggs…he thought they were for throwing, so he ended up tossing them back on the ground.

This particular egg had a bouncy ball inside. When he found it, the egg hunting was over.

See?

Tuckered out…

Oh yeah. You’re seeing that correctly. Those are Veggie Tales peeps.

  
And a Larry the Cucumber sucker…I actually found all of that at Walmart. I didn’t even know they carried Veggie Tales. Maybe it was just an Easter thing, but Little Man loved it.
