Happy Easter! I hope your Easter Sunday was a joyous one, surrounded by loving family and sugared up kids.
As you can see, we really stepped up our outfit coordination this year by going for full-out matching dresses- which we found at The Children's Place, if you're interested. There is a whole line of dresses for girls available in store that have "Mom & Me" tags on them to denote that you can find a matching style for Mom online. A word of warning, though- the fit on my dress was a little off, too tight at the waist and much too loose in the bodice. But it was fine for one fancy day, and with some strategically placed safety pins and a sweater, you can't really notice. As I couldn't seem to find a tie in the right color for little Peanut, I did something crazy and sewed him a vest, from scratch! It's fully lined, the perfect pink, and has big black buttons (that are only for show- I didn't have time to worry about button holes). I may post a tutorial in the coming weeks if I find time to create the graphics to accompany the instructions.
This is a difficult week for us in the Geek household because our beautiful girl is spending her spring break at Mammaw and Papaw's house! She's having a blast already and this is good for all of us, really, but it was very hard to fall asleep last night knowing her bedroom was empty. Baby Brother liked the novelty, at first, of having the house to himself, but was not amused at bedtime tonight when his goodnight kiss from Big Sister was blown across video chat instead of squished in person. We're antsy for this Saturday when we get to reunite and hear about how Mammaw's house is so much more fun than being at home.
How was your Easter? What are your spring break plans?
Much love,
The Geeks
