Easter Afternoon...

so i mentioned that bean was a big fan of the egg hunt, right? she wanted me to re-hide the eggs right away. i told her that "if she was good" i would do so after her brother went down for his nap. and i even said i'd do it outside if it was warm enough. well, of course as soon as that boy's head hit the matress she was raring to go outside. she had her eggs all piled in the basket and her coat on so out we went.
grandpa helped hide the eggs. he hid them harder than mommy. here he is helping her find one he hid- inside a magnolia blossom!
mommy was a little easier on her and hid one in the tree trunk...
she was so excited about the hunt. truly. she even wanted a turn hiding them, which was hilarious! she hid them for grandma then ran around the yard telling grandma where to look. she would stand right next to the eggs and say things like, "grandma, i think you should look over here." and "did you see this one, grandma?" HA HA! there is no challenge when the bean is hiding the eggs. :)

after the grow-ups got tired of the hunting. daddy and bean played a little soccer. bean practiced her kicking while daddy was goalie. daddy does not go easy on her- he does not believe in letting anyone win... or even going easy on them.
but eventually she did score a goal on daddy and she was quite pleased with herself...
it was all quite lovely....
until sprout woke up screaming. seems easter afternoon is a perfect time to cut a molar. sigh.
