I love a challenge

I have always heard people say that it is much harder to find cute clothes for boys than it is for girls. I have found this to be true, but not impossible. I was not about to let a difficult task keep my child from wearing a new Easter outfit.
Do they have GQ Baby???


I think it turned out pretty cute. So cute that it made an entire Saturday of shopping worth it. All 5 pieces of the outfit came from different stores. By the end of the day Jon was about to kill me. But when he saw the entire ons amble, I was quickly forgiven.

Our Easter was pretty fun. We went to church........well Jon did. Bennett and I spend church walking the halls. It was the only way he would stay asleep. After church we spent the evening with Jon's family.

Silly Uncle David.

Bennett, taking a nap in Aunt Charee's closet.
Doesn't he look like a little caterpillar, all wrapped up in his swaddler?


Cousin Ashton could not get enough of Bennett. They played all day. She is such a pretty little girl, even with an orange soda mustache.

I always look forward to Easter for one reason and one reason only. Mmmmm........

His Easter loot!

He could hardly wait to get a hold of his new binks. It's like candy for babies.

He was so tired from all the fun.

Bennett looked so adorable on Sunday, I loved his little outfit. It is a lot harder to find cute things for boys. I also love how he is the same size as his easter basket. So cute!

Cutest outfit ever. And, PS, I can eat like a whole bag of those cadbury eggs in one sitting. They are amazing!

What a little stud. I love the hat.

Did you know they make a Christmas version of Cadbury mini eggs... I know shocking... but yes it is true. The Easter ones are still the best, but for a quick fix not around Easter the Christmas ones are great too!

I can't believe you bought all those pieces at different stores, you are one determined momma! I love it though, he seriously looked so cute.

Nice outfit!!! They have more clothes for girls but some of the boy stuff seriously makes me jealous!!! Plus you don't have to do boys hair!!!!

I want that hat! Where did you get it? He is adorable and I love all the Easter presents. Those seats are fun (can't remember what they're called).

The hat is children's place. I love that store.

I guess that proves it then. It is more challenging to find boy's clothes. I went to one store...Costco, and she wore shoes she already had.I agree with Abby though, the girls make up for it in the "getting ready" phase.

Bennett looked adorable! Are his eyes getting bluer everyday or what? WOW!

I am a mini egg fanatic too. I only have one bag left and I'm trying to decide if I should freeze it for those long winter months.

Bennett is so adorable. I can't believe how fast he is growing up. He looks like a little man. Thank you for the cute little gift by the way. I will look forward to seeing you soon hopefully.
