Buy Me Some Peanuts and Cracker Jack
We went to one of the first baseball games of the year with a friend and her boys and had lots of fun. They had an Easter Egg hunt throughout the stadium and they also had an amusement park area. Bella spent the entire time of the merry-go-round and the boys were all over the place. They had a person mission to ride every animal on the merry-go-round, but they were very fond of the monkey in the blue jeans. I think we saw about 20 minutes of the game and Bella saw about 2 minutes. The park was just too much fun for them! Perhaps next time we should take the hint and go to an amusement park instead.

Hippity Hoppity Sugar High
We had an action packed Easter this year. We dyed eggs as usual. Usual meaning way past bedtime and the customary I forgot the white vinegar trip to the grocery store.
At leas the Easter Bunny was a little more prepared and the baskets were all set shortly after our little bunnies went to bed.
Easter morning is a lot like Christmas at our house. They love the Easter goodies and primarily look forward to an East Breakfast of Champions consisting of Chocolate bunnies, jelly beans and whatever they can stuff in their mouths before brunch.
We then headed to Church so the volunteers in the rooms could enjoy our sugar induced madness. Based on the noise level I would say our kids were not the only ones eating chocolate bunnies for breakfast.
After Church came brunch and then the Easter Egg Hunt! Oh Boy - More Chocolate!
Then off to Grandmom's house for more candy! Bella enjoyed some quiet time on the porch swing with Daddy and the Boy learned that not all toys need batteries.

Fruits and Veggies - Perhaps
Every year I say that I am going to grow a garden from seeds and this year I actually did it! Well, I haven't really done it yet since they are still little tiny plants, but we have high hopes! In my Mom Fantasy World I thought that this would be a good way to get them interested in eating veggies, but I know that won't be the case (:
