This year's Easter has been so much fun (for me, at least). B and Avah were going to come over at about 8:30 am for monkey bread and an egg hunt so we were up early to get the food ready and make sure the eggs were ready. I had Duke's basket all ready on his chair with a trail of eggs leading him to his basket of goodies. I waited and waited for him to get up and sure enough, the little bugger picks Easter to sleep in until 8:15! He got up right before Aunt B and Aves showed up and then it was off to the races. Eggs and candy galore. The first egg that he opened had gum in it, of course. After our breakfast of chocolate, we did sit down for monkey bread and some time to relax. Aunt B and Aves left for church and we cleaned up and tried to rest.
The weather outside this morning was so warm and so nice that since Duke wasn't planning on taking an early nap, we went outside to play for a little while. He loves it. He has all the energy in the world all bottled up in a 22 lb body. It was actually really warm out today.
After we came in, Duke took a nice afternoon nap and then it was tubby time before we were headed over to mom-mom and pop-pop's house for another egg hunt and Easter dinner. Duke got to play with his cousins and Rhoads cousins. Lots of little kids looking for eggs and eating candy. He always has fun at mom-mom and pop-pop's house. Lots to do and get into.
So it was a really great Easter for all of us. Having an active little guy brought back lots of the feelings of excitement I used to have for Easter.
