Corben's First Easter!

Well we were so excited to celebrate this special day for the first time with Corben!

We haven't taken Corben to church yet, so we didn't go to service this morning. I am sure he would have been fine going to church way earlier, but I just wanted to get more comfortable in my ability to keep him calm and to calm him down if he gets fussy. It's not a big deal, I know...I plan to just sit on the aisle and take him out if he gets fussy....but still, I just don't want to be a distraction.

So anyway, instead of going to Easter service, we decided to go out as a family and spend some time with the dogs :) We went up to Youngker High School and had some family track time! When I was pregnant we used to go every weekend, but since having Corben, this was only our second time going.

Steve did his running workout, the dogs ran around like crazy, and I pushed C in his stroller :) Such a nice morning.

After our big morning out, we went home for a nap, had lunch, then got ready for Corben's first big Easter celebration at Gramma and Grandpa's house!

We had such a good time celebrating together as a family. My cousin, Jimmy, his fiance, Amelia, and their 11 month old daughter, Alice, all came over as well. They are moving to New Jersey in a couple of weeks so it was good to see them before they head off.

All in all, it was an awesome day. Even though Corben had no idea what was happening, it was fun to experience Easter with our baby boy.

The best part of the whole day, though, was Corben giggling for the first time! He was lying on my parent's couch just looking around and smiling. My mom, grandma, and I were sitting there as well just chit chatting when we look over at him just at the right time when he smiled and let out a very happy giggle!!!! It was the sweetest sound! I definitely cried. I cannot believe how many more firsts we get to experience with our sweet boy......poor thing better get used to Mommy being a bawl baby!!!

Although I didn't catch the giggle on video, I did take this right after the big event :)

Happy Easter everyone:)
