Easter in Prineville

This last weekend we spent Easter in Prineville. This was a great opportunity for Nora to meet and see a lot of her grandparents, great-grandparents, aunts, uncles, and cousins. The baby was basking in all the attention she was getting.

Whenever my mom is around, she always offers to take Nora for the nights. Sam and I are always thrilled with this offer as it means we are pretty much guaranteed a good night of sleep (something we greatly treasure these days). The first night we were there my mom watched Nora and brought her up to us early in the morning since the baby was waking for a feeding. I was adjusting Nora in my arms when I felt something on her back that felt like a growth. In my grogginess I examined this growth a little more carefully with my fingers and in realizing what it was I ended up waking Sam up with my cackling. Snapped into Nora's jammies was non other than her pacifier. We jokingly accused my mom of not knowing which end the pacifier belongs in. Moral of the story - don't change a baby's diaper in the dark.

With so much family around, there was an abundance of photo opportunities...


Here's Nora and her great grandma. Mom-mom was busy working the smiles out of Nora.

This next pictures shows the 4 generations of the Barnes family.

This is Sam, Nora, and me on Easter.

Here is Nora in the sunglasses she got in her Easter basket. Stylin' for sure.



And finally here is Miss Nora showing off her pretty Easter dress.

OK, "Anonymous" we know who you are! :) Love the story and the pics. ANorable looks a little concerned about that BIG ole bunny, though. I'm glad you got to go to Prineville.
