Aaaaw

Little boy loves to snuggle up when the pillows or big soft toys come out. All we have to say is "Aaaaw" and he cuddles up. Inevitably, because it is so cute, we then say "Aaaaw" again, thus starting a vicious cycle.

Dad on the run

While the ladies and little boy went to church, the dad ran an 8k with 30,000 of his closest friends (the 34:00 time was not too shabby for an old guy).

Linus spent a good deal of the Easter weekend pushing this train toy around, often with one of his sisters on it.

Altogether

Auntie Mel and Uncle Nate's entryway is the stage for the Repptian family Easter photo. It is a good thing we took the photo when we did because the girls spent almost the rest of the entire visit in the new jammies that Auntie Erica and Uncle John gave them in their Easter baskets.

New frocks

I couldn't resist buying new dresses for the girls for Easter. When I was growing up, the only time we would get a new dresses was for Christmas and for Easter. The girls were very happy to see new dresses after we had prepped them for wearing last year's. (This surprise could have easily backfired on us by our sometimes, not-so-flexible girls.) I realized that this is the first time that I have actually bought dresses for the girls since their grandparents have generously provided all their previous Sunday finery.

Easter smiles

After the service we had to snap some quick photos as the next group of Easter worshipers were filing into the sanctuary. This year all three girls happily obliged our antics. The boys did not.

Finished project

Most birds don't eat their homes but our little tweeties liked to nibble at them. (The high fiber cereal we used also makes them appealing to the older crowd too.)
