Easter 2010


I'm really concentrating as this is my first time coloring Easter eggs.  Mommy still loves my sweet baby hands!

I am having a good time and I want to do it all by myself



Just look at that sweet face . . . I can still see the baby in her . . .


This is my very first Easter egg hunt too! 



Splash in the bucket


Daddy's making sure I don't fall down the hill & loose all my loot


 
My stash . . .

 
 All done and I only dumped my bucket twice
 

 
 Last Easter Liliah had only been home 3 months and was still very much a baby.  This year she kept saying, "Easter is coming," in her own language of course as was so excited about it for the past week. I kept telling her, Easter is today and we are celebrating Jesus!!!  When she woke up, we helped her find her basket.  She spied a panda puppet wash cloth and then wouldn't go near the basket.  Once we removed it she was all over the foil chocolate Easter bunny and promptly unwrapped for consumption.  She clapped her hands and said, yeah when we pulled out the table cloth and dishes and made a pretty arrangement for the table.  We had a lovely day together with friends.

It looks like she had a wonderful Easter. Little ones make holidays so much fun.

Love seeing those looks of concentration and satisfaction. What a sweetie! I still can't get over how much fun parenting is, compared to our "ordinary" lives beforehand!
