We spent Easter weekend at my parents' house on the farm. As usual, it was a whirlwind of visiting and eating, but wonderful to see so much family. Bert got to hang with his cousin, second cousins, first-cousins-once-removed, grandparents, great-grandparents, uncle, great aunts and uncles, and of course mom and dad. He enjoyed ham, mashed potatoes, baked corn, and lima beans during our pre-Easter dinner, some ice cream while celebrating his great-grandpop's 89th birthday, and waffles on Easter morning. And he took his first few tottering steps! Must be that good country air.

"Let's go Popper!" Even Jeter is ready for his rhino ride. |
What a nice weekend! And congrats (or maybe, "I'm so sorry") on those first steps. :) Soren was an early walker too, but was soooo much happier when he was mobile.
