Despite the weatherman's semi-dreary predictions we've had a whole lot of sunshine this weekend. Not as much as last year but enough to make us believe that summer will eventually make its way to this lovely (but sometimes cold and windy) little island.
We had an amazing easter brunch yesterday with all our favourite amazing people. And its really hard to find a better meal than brunch: all the goodness of breakfast foods (prominently featuring maple syrup) but at a much more reasonable time of day.
Before brunch I made a point of bringing the camera downstairs and placing it right beside the table hoping that if I tripped over it I'd remember to get a photo of everyone around the table but I stayed upright and have no pictures to prove it. I did get a few of Frankie getting ready (or our get one piece of clothing on the wiggly baby have a play break, get another piece of clothing on the wiggly baby have another play break, routine).
I was tempted to stop after putting her bloomers on since she was then the cutest thing I'd ever seen. More babies in just bloomers is reason enough to want summer here asap.
More babies in dresses with bare baby arms is another good reason for wanting the temperatures to rise.
Although we didn't do any easter egg hunting this year Frances did get to try a few pieces of her very own little chocolate bunny. Each time we'd hold out a piece for her to try she'd giggle before taking it and putting it in her mouth. This really was an excellent strategy to get us to keep giving her more and more chocolate. Up until now she hasn't been a very giggly baby but in the last week it seems like anything and everything makes her laugh. Oh my sweeter than maple syrup baby.
Happy Easter!
