Growing by Two Tiny Feet: April 2014

Hope you all had a wonderful Easter weekend, filled with lots of fun, family, and chocolate bunnies! Our Easter weekend started on Saturday with a pretty awesome egg hunt in the park at the end of our street. We woke up to a horrible gully-washer of a thunderstorm, and were feeling lazy and pretty bummed that the rain had spoiled our plans. But after a text that the hunt had been postponed, we hustled to get ourselves dressed and walked over to the park just as the clouds disappeared and the sun (and overwhelming humidity) came out.

Before the event started, Z got to see real bunnies (one of her favorites from her baby animals book), but screeched like a banshee when the Hubs picked her up to actually pet one. She was content to look at the pen of bunnies and coo and giggle with the other toddlers.

Although she didn't quite understand the way an Easter egg hunt works, Z had fun clutching her eggs, wandering around, and watching the other toddlers go after the eggs.

Our Easter Sunday started out pretty low-key. My brother came to spend the weekend, and while he slept in, the Hubs and I had a little early morning lazy time with Z and Scout.

Last year, Z was still new when Easter rolled around. She pretty much just sat there while we carried on about the goodies in her basket. But this year, well, she really still has no idea about Easter, but seemed pretty jazzed about the basket full of fun stuff.

The grandparents come down for brunch (and cupcakes!), but really just spent most of the day watching Z walk circles around the house and act like a little goofball.

Then we attempted our own Easter egg hunt, which went really well... sorta. She's not a big fan of walking in the grass, even with shoes on, so once she made it to the sidewalk, we had a hard time getting her off.
