We had Easter! It was so much fun! Lilly got all dressed up, one of her favorite things to do. She loves twirling and saying "I'm sooooo pretty! Soooo beautiful!" For instance, she's sitting next to me as I write this and looking at her pictures saying, "Cute little dress."
Before church she opened up a few Easter things that family had sent and the "Easter Bunny" had left. We went to church and then when we got home Lilly took a nap and the Easter Bunny hid a bunch of eggs. She was so excited when she got up and promptly opened each egg and ate the candy inside. :)
Before Easter, I was suffering from some allergies, but still wanted to keep traditions alive and we made some sugar cookies and then delivered them to a couple friends. The second Lilly had gotten out of her bath, she grabbed a chair and climbed on the counter. She was clean for almost 30 seconds!!!
We also enjoyed listening to all the Apostles and the Prophet speak during General Conference. Lilly did fairly well, when the Prophet went to speak she sat in the chair for most of it and would point and say "Prophet" over and over again. We truly are blessed to live in a time when we can listen to the Prophet on our computers, television, phones, etc.
And of course, Lilly has about 5 phones (none of which work) that she is always calling Grandpa & Grandpa (she doesn't quite know how to say grandMA yet, so she just calls them both Grandpa) in Russia. She'll be babbling away and tell us she's called Grandpa. Only roughly 16 months until we get to see them again. Still can't believe they've been gone like 8 months. We are so proud of them and we were worried Lilly wouldn't know them, but we Skype at least once a week and it's really helped...Lilly...not miss them so much. Yup, it's all Lilly. :)
