Happy Easter


Happy Easter!! Here is our first family Easter photo . Unfortunately we were in a hurry for church so we couldn't get the best picture and the sun was bright and in our eyes. Also was also crying so its the best we could do. We had a good Easter though. It was our first day back at church and Alyssa's first time at church. Everyone of course came to look at her. I had to teach primary so my sister held her during relief society. I skipped sharing time to feed her in the mother lounge (I'm glad they have that!) After church we went to Russ' moms house for Easter dinner. All of his siblings were there so we got to chat alot. One of his sister is moving to Ohio to get her Phd sooner, so we were glad to spend more time with her.
Alyssa is now 5 weeks old. Can you believe it, time goes so fast (after the first week of no sleep =). We just love her to death and can not get enough of her. We take trillions of pictures of her. She is so fun. She half smiled yesterday so we are anticipating a real smile soon. She has a very strong neck and loves to look around. She also LOVES the bath, it is so cute sometimes it relaxes her so much she falls asleep in the bath. The picture below is funny, she loves to have her head in the water so Russ holds her and we let the back of her head sit in the water.
In her swing


A cute picture!




Grandma Judie was in town and came by to see her first great granddaughter (I am her first grandchild!)
