Hoppy Easter!

Maddy began early Saturday asking me when the Easter Bunny would be here.  It was a longgggg 24 hours waiting for his arrival. We put the boys to bed early Saturday and dyed eggs with just M (18 mo. old twins and dye do not mix). Here she is dying her eggs!


(And yes she is holding up the #1 symbol........she is still celebrating the CATS winning the National Championship!)

I got up at 6am on Easter morning and ran through the drive-thru at Tim Horton's for Easter egg shaped eggs! They were so cute!


I told the kids the Easter bunny had left them breakfast! Maddy was stoked....the twins mainly licked frosting and made a huge mess.






The Easter bunny left a decent sized haul (the last thing my kids need is more toys, so the bunny kept it to a minimum).  Maddy was quick to point out that the Easter bunny got her a duplicate toy. Oops, Easter Bunny/Mommy forgot!  Told you they had too many toys!

Here's the haul:

Best thing in the basket....this baby:


Do you guys remember these? I loved them as a kid! They are only a buck at Michael's...they are the mini ones, but still that's a great deal! They had a girlie one and a sheriff too! So cute!

How was your Easter? Hope it great!

Happy Easter!

Happy late Easter! As is typical, I am late for everything........even wishing someone a Happy Easter. 

Wasn't a very nice one here in lovely Ohio........I am seriously about to build a canoe and start rowing to work. It rained the majority of yesterday so we hid the eggs one time in the front yard for M. The back yard currently looks like Swamp Thing's second home, so that was out of the question! M was satisfied and more concerned about her brother's Easter baskets, which contained cell phones.  Hers did not, as these were baby toys. I learned my first lesson yesterday of having multiple children: BUY EVERYTHING IN TRIPLICATE!

Took Maddy to see the Easter bunny on Saturday..........first time ever. This child HATES all things in costume.  The closest she ever came to NOT screaming during an outing with a costumed person was Chuck E Cheese at about age 8 months.  This time was really no different.  She sat on his lap and covered her face!! Classic Maddy. She later told me she didn't like him because he had teeth. 

I will be the first to admit this was one skank-tastic Easter Bunny (yes, I invented the word skank-tastic). But, hey, that's what you get when you to to the local Walgreen's the day before Easter. I was suckered into paying for a package of pictures, where my kid wasn't smiling..........only to realize that my precious princess was sitting on the Easter Bunny's lap in a dress with her legs open!!! :) God love her! At least she's cute! This is blackmail for later!
