Eggcelent Easter

Today is Connor's third Easter. He came home from the hospital on Easter two years ago, just a few days old. He's definitely much more aware of things this year. However, I failed miserably in any attempt to introduce him to the Easter Bunny. In fact, it didn't even dawn on me to take him to a mall to find one. Nevertheless, he was overjoyed to see a big basket of goodies awaiting for him this morning. Honestly, I don't think he gave a second thought to where it came from.

I also dropped the ball when it came to decorating Easter eggs. But thanks to Aunt Tin, she handed off a Sesame Street egg decorating kit and saved the day. Connor helped pick out the color for each egg. While they were drying, we tested his genius brain and had him count the eggs. When they were good and dry, he helped add stickers to each of the eggs to create some of his favorite characters.

My family came over for dinner. Aunt Tin, Grandma and Grandpa were the first to arrive. Before everyone else arrived, Aunt Tin had Connor help her hide 48 Easter plastic eggs filled with candy. It was fun to watch him place them in plain sight rather than hide them. After our bellies were full from dinner, we worked off the calories (not really) by joining in an Easter egg hunt. Surprisingly (or not) Connor collected the most eggs.
