Bon voyage, Espinozas!

We recently found out that Jon's brother-in-law, Anthony, will be stationed in Japan for the next three years. This Memorial Day, all of Jon's brothers and sisters came over to visit, so we could spend time together before Beth, Anthony, Colin & Ally go overseas. Please keep them in your prayers!

The National Zoo

Jon had a business trip this week in Maryland, so the girls and I tagged along and we all went to the National Zoo in Washington DC. Our friends Monika and Sean went too, and we all had a great time. Lily seemed most impressed by the train ride (the Metro) and the orangutans.

A Happy Mother's Day

This Mother's Day was an extra special one for us, as we decided to have Eve dedicated (much like a baptism) on Sunday. Eve behaved really well in church as she got passed around from family member to family member! And her big sister, Lily, had a blast playing with her cousins and grandparents.

Here is a clip from the dedication:

Fun at the Farm

Lily, Eve and I went to a friend's farm recently to play with some animals. Lily got to bottle feed a lamb, and she was very excited about it! Here is a video clip from the day:

Happy Easter!

We hope you all had a wonderful Easter! We certainly did here, starting with a visit from my sister, Tracy, and her family. The kids all dyed Easter Eggs together (and my tablecloth!) a few days before the holiday.

On Easter Sunday, we spent the day at my mother-in-law's house, along with most of Jon's family.

Here are a few photos from the week:

Easter Egg Hunt

Lily had a great time this weekend at a church Easter Egg hunt. Jon and I had a blast watching her run around looking for the eggs. Of course, it wasn't as much fun for us when she ate all the chocolate inside and had a sugar high! Here is a video clip of her expedition:

First Month & First Bath

Eve turned 1 month on March 8th, and she is doing really well. She still only sleeps a few hours at a time at night, but Jon and I are managing to keep our sanity!

Lily has been doing well with her little sister and enjoying helping me take care of her.

We gave Eve her first bath last night. She didn't seem to mind it...too much!
