Happy Easter!! Easter may have been yesterday, but we celebrated it today so Dominic could join us. At least he gets paid double for working on a holiday, and it was less stressful celebrating today. After lunch we dyed eggs. Then we went to the store and bought half-priced candy. After dinner we hunted our dyed eggs, while the "Easter Bunny" hid the baskets. And of course the kids had a sugar-fest just before bed.
Elisa received baby food in her basket, so she kept trying to grab her brothers' chocolate, which resulted in lots of screaming: "No no Ee-ee! You can't eat candy!" Which reminds me, she won't eat regular baby food, so I add spices to it. Yesterday I put a little too much garlic in her vegetable stew. She gobbled it up, but her breath still smells garlicky today.
Sammy is getting too inquisitive. When I told him we talked to the Easter Bunny, who agreed to come a day later so Dad could join us, he kept asking how we talked to him. Um... email. When we let the kids loose in the house to find the baskets, he went straight to my bedroom closet (where all gifts are hidden), and he was perplexed that they weren't there. Once they had their baskets in-hand, he asked why he can't see the Easter Bunny. Um.. he's like Santa Clause and doesn't come if we see him... Ok, maybe he's like a super hero with a secret identity and he can't let anyone see him...
Benjamin enjoyed everything, but he kept cracking his eggs.
