Easter Fun

Lucy had a great Easter. Her Easter began Friday with Grandma Joyce coloring eggs. I'm glad grandma was the daring soul to do this messy fun with her. As you can see in the pictures Lucy began having fun with the colors and the t-shirt had to come off. Grandma gave a good report, the kitchen was not ruined and she's a natural at coloring eggs.

So now it is my turn to color eggs with the munchkin. I'm sure this fun time would have been better if I let go of my control issues and allow her to be a 1 year old. I could not get over the fact that she was using one spoon in every colored cup, drove me crazy. I soon remembered she is only 1 and to let her do this her way. She is a natural and did color some great eggs.
Funniest thing was that she kept tugging at her shirt. Since grandma took her shirt off to dye eggs I had to also, so that's why I have a half naked kid.

The Easter bunny hopped into our house. Lucy woke up earlier than I had liked so Grant had to keep her amused for a while which is impossible in the morning. I then gave the word and heard foot steps running down the hallway. Nosy Lucy just wanted to know what her mom was doing without her. She saw her basket and dove right in. I think she enjoyed everything inside her basket, especially the silly puddy.

Grandma Joyce came by with another basket that the Easter bunny dropped off at her house. Crazy bunny hopped off the trail and got lost. Oh well, Lucy loved the chick peeps container and the sunscreen stick. She made sure everyone had sunscreen on their face.

Then we were off to the Roloff Easter gathering. Aunt Cathy and Uncle Al have the best yard for an egg hunt. Lucy picked up the idea of an egg hunt instantly. This was her first one and she nailed it. It's a good thing she has a tall daddy to help her with the high eggs too.
