Easter 2010

You would think that dying Easter Eggs is not very complicated...well in our case, it apparently is very hard. We followed the instructions for making the egg dye so that the eggs would be dyed in pastel colors and began showing Clayton how to dye his Easter eggs. However, after letting them soak and soak and soak a little more in the dye the eggs would not soak up the color unless they were a pink shade. So needless to say our boy had a basket full of pink Easter eggs. Oh well maybe next year... It did not phase Clayton one bit though. He had the best time chunking his eggs into the cups full of dye. He didn't understand when all of the cups were full of eggs that we couldn't keep going with the rest of the eggs left waiting to be put in the egg dye. He would clap and cheer after putting each egg in a cup.

Pre-Mess....

So proud of himself :)

A little help from Daddy

The Easter Bunny came and left Clayton lots of books, bubbles, sidewalk chalk, and some sweet treats for his little sweet tooth :) He plopped right down next to his basket and started digging in it.

Just relaxing & reading one of his new books
