Easter and overdue update

I can't believe this past weekend we celebrated Easter! Time is flying by! Kevin and I were talking as each holiday comes around we can't believe it has been a year since the last one! Last Easter, we were celebrating Charlotte's baptism and Kevin's confirmation. Crazy! This Easter weekend was beautiful and wonderful. Charlotte had a great time at her first Easter egg hunt. She actually picked up 4 eggs on her own and placed them in her basket. It was a beautiful fun day. On Easter my whole family attended morning mass and then had brunch. It was yummy and fun to spend time with family. We then spent the rest of the day working in the yard and getting the porch ready for the spring/summer season. A fun and productive weekend...awesome!

Charlotte is now 15 months old. She had her check up and is in the 70% in both height and weight. Our little well proportioned lady:) She continues to be in the 98% for head....for her big brains! We got a healthy report from our pediatrician which is always great.

Milestone update
Says "asa" (our dog's name) which comes out "sa" but we figured it out
Says "shoes" and continues to be obsessed with them since about 4 months old!
Says "all done" and she says this A LOT
Discovered her knees and loves to kneel
Loves playing outside and loves rocks
Signs "eat" and "more"
Waves hi and bye
Gives kisses and hugs....my favorite

Love of the week
A week from today Kevin and I will be on a plane traveling to Oregon for our vacation. Charlotte will be staying in Ohio with Gramps and Grandma. We are so very excited. We are going to miss Charlotte and Asa but are very excited for relaxation and adult conversation!

Loath of the week
My allergies are in full swing and I hate them. I am allergic to tree pollen, which is that fine green dust you see on everything now. It makes it really hard for me to be outside. It is so beautiful outside and a little someone I know loves to be out so it is rough.  Can't wait for them to be over!
