We started out with a family Easter basket in the morning. Seb got a few bites of the chocolate bunny, but the candy was mostly for me and Adam. :) Sebastian had fun carting around the plastic eggs in his basket and at one point I even found two eggs in his play cooking pot. The eggs are still out because he's having fun with them. He likes to open them and attempt to put them back together, but doesn't quite have it down, so there are half pieces of Easter egg all over my living room and kitchen.
Adam and I each made dessert for Easter dinner and brought it to my parents for the festivities, but the real bonus of going over there is having lots of helpers to watch and play with Seb. I was able to just get some fun shots of the decorations and I even dyed eggs. My mom sent each one of the 'kids' home with a baggie filled with 5 different kinds of M&Ms and we each had a Jackson stuffed in an egg at our dinner setting. I don't think you ever get too old for having fun like that at holiday's. :)
Sebastian discovered dyed eggs. We didn't do any at home because he's too young and knowing his obsession with drinking from cups right now, he'd probably try to drink the dye. After I dyed the eggs he picked up one in each hand and threw them like they were balls. They made a sad thud and he realized his 'ball' had cracked. Being the curious 19-month old that he is, he then stuck his fingers in and explored.
The egg didn't stand a chance. And he wasn't a fan of the yolk texture on his fingers. In general he isn't a big fan of eggs, so I'm not surprised when he didn't even attempt to try and eat it. Once he had yolk smashed on his fingers he held out his hands for us to wipe it off. RIP pink egg.
Birthday pictures are in my real camera, probably never to be seen until I pull out pictures after Christmas or something, but my sister is on the ball and shared our group shot on photostream, so I at least have that. Let's not talk about how many pictures we actually take to get one where everybody has their eyes open and we all look presentable. It's especially tricky with a toddler and a dog, but I think we were pretty successful here.
