Makaela's First Easter!

Even though she is almost 13 months old, this is baby Mak's first Easter! Last year Easter fell on March 31st...the day I went into labor and was admitted to the hospital. This Easter was SO much more fun ;-)

 

We "hid" Makaela's Easter basket and started out the morning with a hunt to find it. She was super excited, not sure if it was because Elmo was on the basket or because of all the sugary treats inside.  She picked out the basket around Valentine's when her love affair with Elmo first began. 






Her basket was stuffed with plastic eggs, rubber duckies, a ball, chips ahoy cookies, mini m&m's (she is obsessed with shaking the tube), kit-kats, and of course peeps!



Yep, those are her infamous Christmas PJs, my baby sported her "Sunday Best" all day. 

The day before Easter we colored eggs. It was a messy good time.





Our fingertips were dyed pink for a good 24 hours. It looked like a manicure gone horribly wrong.




 
Oh Daddy, don't you want this blue egg?



I think they turned out pretty darn cute. Good job master finger painting baby!






Was that enough close-ups of eggs for you? Haha. Turns out we aren't the only ones who like Easter Eggs...good thing the one this little guy is playing with is made of plastic :)


Next year I have HUGE plans...they entail dressing Makaela in current holiday appropriate attire, and making these delicious delights for breakfast. Go big or go home guys, okay?
