Easter

Easter Egg Hunt at Day Care

This was a very different experience this year, than last. Parker knew just what to do and ran around gathering up 2 loads of eggs. Unfortunately, the weather was horrible! It was fine at first, then changed to a sprinkle, then a DOWNPOUR and HAIL! Really?! Geez.

Can you see the raindrops? This is Karen, our wonderful day care provider.

After hunting Easter eggs, we headed to the mall with my mom to see the Easter Bunny. (For those of you who never knew this, I was the Easter Bunny at Heritage Mall in Albany for a couple of years. I took pictures some days and had to be the Bunny other days. Kind of humiliating when friends and family members come and tease by sitting on your lap!)

Parker wanted to see Santa instead of the Easter Bunny and on the way into the mall, he began singing, "Frosty the Snowman.... Happy Soul!... button nose..... eyes... coal!" He doesn't understand that Santa is on vacation and will be back to work soon, but we won't see him for quite awhile.

Parker got to groom the Easter Bunny.

I have lots of pictures of Parker just hanging out next to the bunny with no smile. I couldn't get him to smile for anything!

He just likes interacting with him instead of just sitting there. High five!

Play time at the mall!

Now we just need to figure out what Easter traditions we are doing. I don't have a dinner planned, eggs dyed, or any Easter gifts bought. I think we are going to dye some eggs and I may buy a small ham. Parker's Easter Basket is somewhere in the garage. It doesn't feel like it could possibly be Easter because of the winter temperatures and rain. Maybe we'll get some sun soon.

HAPPY EASTER EVERYONE!
