Happy Easter Weekend!

Happy Easter! We have a weekend of Easter dinners coming up.. tomorrow (Sat) at my Mom's and Sunday at Aleksy's parents.

Rachel and I (and Logan) had to start Easter baking early because Rachel had her overnight at our place in late February on her PD day. We knew we wouldn't get another chance for baking before Easter so we took advantage early.

Here's Rachel with the cookies we made... sugar cookies with Easter sprinkles in them and Easter smarties on top! These babies are in the freezer all ready for supper at my Mom's tomorrow!
Our other Easter creation was this Easter Bark with tons of Easter Goodies on top. Rachel loved this even more than the cookies and wanted several samples.

The Thursday afternoon playgroup was at my place on Thursday (yesterday) just before Easter weekend. So I thought it would be a good idea to plan a baby friendly craft. This is what we did: styrofoam eggs and sponge chicks in the ziploc... put a few drops of paint in the ziploc and let the babies spread it around. It worked great... lots of babies' first crafts! The eggs turned out especially nice. Just like dying eggs :)

And to Aleksy's excitement, there were no paint splatters on the table.
 We planned for this Easter photoshoot with the babies... with their fancy Easter outfits and bunny ears! The older babies loved the plastic eggs for biting their fresh new teeth on (Logan has broken a bottom tooth!).
This cutie!!! Logan's first Easter. The Easter bunny is going to be real good to him this year. The hiding places will sure to be easy for him to find the eggs and chew on them to his liking... maybe a few fun things in his basket too (bubbles?!).
