Easter Weekend
Author: The Presson's // Category:
Paul, Christian, Grandma Karan and I all went to visit Karan's hometown this past weekend for Easter. She grew up in New Windsor, IL - which is a 4 hour drive from St. Louis. We headed out Friday afternoon (leaving work early at 3pm), unfortunately we didn't get very far before Christian decided to toss his cookies all over himself and his carseat. We stopped at Walmart and got him and the seat all cleaned up before hitting the road once again. Poor thing was sick all weekend! =(
I wasn't sure how he would handle that long of a drive...and now I know. NOT WELL! Poor thing was going stir-crazy and since he threw up he was really hungry. We stopped for dinner and made it to New Windsor around 8pm.
Saturday we hung out at the house all morning and afternoon. Christian and his second cousin Joshua got to play and interact. Joshua did NOT want Christian to have anything to do with his trucks - those were all his! He's a typical 2 year old. We had yummy berogies for lunch and went to a little pizza place for dinner called Stashu's - which is also a meat market/deli joint. They had really good pizza and cheesy bread. But poor Christian got sick again on the way in. Literally as Paul was carrying him inside - he threw up all over the floor. I was so embarrassed! Paul's shirt wasn't so lucky...and Christian had to go pantsless the rest of our meal. I think the car ride is what made him sick.
Easter morning we went to church at 7am, then had breakfast in the basement afterwards. Again, Christian got sick while eating puffs and bananas. =( I felt so bad for him. After breakfast we packed up and headed home. Once we arrived back in St. Louis we went to my Aunt Jackie's house for Easter dinner and to visit with my mom's side of the family. Christian got lots of Easter goodies including: a few Easter Bunnies of various colors, eggs with money inside (thanks to Grandma Gwen), an easter basket full of bubbles, a V-Tech Lullaby book (thanks to Great-Grandma & Grandpa Kruse), Carter's clothes (thanks to Great-Grandma Schrader), a "Cars" book and toy (thanks to Aunt Jackie), a yellow "Chicks Dig Me" shirt (thanks to Grandma & Grandpa Presson) that looks so cute on him. Plus Mommy & Daddy got him a soft & cuddly yellow ducky, a "My First Easter" bib, and a few bunny & duck books that came in a plush Easter Bunny basket.
I'd say he did pretty well for his first Easter! Such a lucky little guy to have so many people that love and care for him! Thanks to everyone for all the wonderful presents! =)
