Magdalene, the Prettiest Easter Bunny!

Magdalene is ready to go for Easter this year!  I know we're a bit early, but I found a great deal on a cute bumble bee Easter basket.  Isn't it so cute!  Her Grandma Robin got her those cute bunny eyes.  She's ready to go egg hunting!  It's exciting because my mom and sister (who has never met Magdalene yet) are coming around Easter.  We will have so much fun!  My mom has never dyed Easter eggs so this should be a real treat for her.  Hmm...so my mom and sister are coming which means.....I will get some sleep!  haha.  Actually probably not because I will want to talk and catch up with them.  My mom is also bringing Magdalene her first Portguese sweet bread.  It's a tradition in the Portuguese household to receive a little Portuguse sweet bread with an egg in the middle (a cook, hard-boiled egg).  The egg represents Jesus' resurrection on Easter.  Now Magdalene will not be able to eat the sweet bread, but I know of two parents who love that stuff.  Jordan totally destroys it for me though.  He toasts the sweet bread and puts jelly on it!  What!!!  It's sweet bread.  You eat it with butter and Portuguese cheese...that's it.  Almost everyone in my immediate family has met Magdalene.  I hope one day soon my extended family will be able to meet her.  But until then, I hope this blog and the pictures I send help you get to know my daughter. 

Bananas, Carrots, Peas, Oh My!

As you can see, Magdalene makes funny faces while eating.  She does enjoy eating fruits more than vegetables.  She takes after her daddy and mommy in the sweet tooth.  We can't wait to grow fresh food in our garden and make food for Magdalene.  We love you little punker (Jordan's name for Magdalene....shortened from pumpkin or pumpkin spice).
