Easter

I am loving watching my boys do their "firsts".

This year we've had so many!!!

This weekend it was time to dye eggs.

Found lots of great ideas on-line.

This was a great source for inspiration and we ended up 

inviting our friends over and trying it out: 

Drip Dot Eggs 

I think it was a hit!!!

a side note but our occupational therapist

would LOVE that we were doing this fine motor stuff :)

We ended up dunking them later to get more uniform color

but if I had to do it again, I think I preferred the unique

look of the drip dot method alone. 

although they all turned out really pretty!!

Easter Morning.

The Easter Bunny sure delivered. 

He remembered that the boys can't have 

the typical chocolate bunnies because of their

food allergies but he sure spoiled them 

with all the other goodies instead. 

The boys were excited to find their baskets

Nicholas was comparing his loot with Alex's. 

Then it was time to find the eggs

We had a practice run with our good friends the night before

so the boys really got into the swing of things this morning

They found stamps

jelly beans that they quickly ate

and Alex liked the sound that all those pennies made. 

After breakfast they got to open even more 

treats from good friends

Nicholas could not put this down.

He even "borrowed" Alex's because you know,

two IS better than one.

Thank you Grandma O!!!!!

Yep: totally spoiled!!!!!!
