Easter Fun!

We hope everyone had a nice Easter - we did! We started the festivities on Friday evening by coloring eggs. Camryn really enjoyed making the eggs pretty colors. She was especially good at stirring and taking the eggs out with daddy. She took her job very seriously!! Of course, she was upset when we were all done, but she got over it pretty quickly.

On Saturday, we visited Chris' family in Greencastle. We haven't been there since Christmas, so it was nice to see everyone again. Camryn loved the fact that both houses we went to had cats! She spent a lot of her time figuring out where the cats were hiding. She didn't understand that they were hiding from the girl chasing them!! When she wasn't looking for the cat, she had fun playing with all of Madison's wonderful Dora toys. All was great until she got cranky from no nap (combined with some diaper issues - thanks to the antibiotics). We got that resolved and she fell asleep on me on the couch. She hasn't fallen asleep on me in ages, so I will admit that I enjoyed it! We let her sleep for a little while, but needed to get on the road. We figured she would sleep the whole way home, but she didn't sleep for one second!! We sang lots of Laurie Berkner to keep her happy and she seemed glad to get home. After a quick dinner and bath, she was out!

On Easter morning, she was excited to see a "bucket" in her room waiting for her to find eggs. We told her that the Easter Bunny hid the eggs for her to find and she immediately wanted to look outside to see if there was a bunny in the yard. I guess we will have to wait a while before she really gets the fun of the Easter Bunny or any other mythical holiday character. She started looking for eggs and kept screaming "another one!!!" when she would see one. It was so much fun to watch!! She also found her real Easter baskets (one from Grammy and one from the Easter Bunny) downstairs. She looked at them briefly before she continued to find eggs. When she was finally done finding the eggs, she found all sorts of goodies in her baskets. She got some candy, books, bubbles, Elmo Aquadoodle, an Elmo's World DVD, crayons, and money. And, later that day, she picked out a Mickey Mouse coloring book using a gift card from Pappy. All in all, I would say that she had a very good Easter with lots of loot.
