Easter Weekend

This weekend was one of the best I've had in quite a while. Rudy was off of work the entire weekend, which doesn't happen too often, so we took advantage! We got lots of stuff done around the house in preparation for Sophia's party. We had some good, quality family time. Sophia loved having her daddy home all weekend (and mommy didn't mind the help either).

Saturday afternoon, we colored eggs. One cranky baby and one spilled bowl of dye later, we had colored eggs! What a chore that was with a busy *almost* one year old. Sheesh!








Then Saturday night after Sophia went to bed, I made her a bunny cake. My mom used to make one for us kids growing up and I wanted to start the same tradition with Sophia. For being my first one, I think it turned out pretty cute :)


We woke up Sunday morning and the "Easter Bunny" went out and hid the eggs :) Sophia drank her milk and looked through her basket. She loved the "beebees" more than anything (she calls all of her stuffed animals beebees). The eggs were filled with yogurt melts, puffs, and goldfish. She also got the Bambi dvd, necklace and bracelet, bath books, wooden puzzle, bubbles, and chalk. She was quite the happy kiddo!




Then we headed outside to do some Easter egg hunting. I wasn't sure if Sophia would be into it or not but she loved it! She had a blast. We had to show her the first egg and how to drop it in her basket but girl knew what she was doing after that. She's a pro ;)



After her morning nap, we headed to my dad's house for lunch. Pop also had an Easter baket for Sophia and Aunt Gina had some goodies for her too. She's a spoiled little girl that's for sure!


Later in the afternoon, we went to the in-laws house and did an Easter egg hunt there and had dinner. It was a long exhausting day but worth every single second to see how happy my girl was. Hope everyone had a blessed Easter as well....
