Eggsiting Events!

Who doesn't love a good milestone, especially when there's a chocolate Easter egg or two tucked away behind it? Well, Sis-sis celebrated one such milestone a couple of days ago when she participated in her first ever Easter egg hunt (she was about four months old last time so she had to 'sit' it out)!

All the 'big people' in our family hid scrummy chocolate eggs in Grandad & Grandma's garden, and then us, 'little people', sniffed them all out! Sis-sis found just as many as us bigger kids (Cousin Eleanor is over four and I'm almost three) with a tiny bit of help from the grown-ups. The chocolate eggs we amassed on the hunt was on top of the delicious array we'd already received from all the family. My favourite is the chocolate dog I got from Grandma & Grandad. Sis-sis got a chocolate 'meow' from them but she likes it such a lot, I don't think she means to eat it! We gave Eleanor and Alex yummy eggs too with their names on it. We didn't just get eggs either, we got two cute tops from G&G, and we got a big box of Lego and a JUMBO dinosaur puzzle from Mommy and Daddy (instead of eggs which they know we'll get plenty of without their help)!

We had also taken along our new bouncy castle and all four of us had a hopping good time on it! The rest of the day we spent stuffing our faces with all the good food Grandma had made for us. In fact, Sis-sis set a record for the most olives ever eaten by a one year old!

The next big event is Daddy's birthday. That's tomorrow and we can't wait to give him the card we've made for him. We've got him little gifts too but we really couldn't think of anything really exciting because he always says he's got everything he needs (in us)! Anyway, Mommy says it's the thought that counts and that she might chuck in a nice meal to make it a good day for him. After all, someone as old as Daddy- thirty six(!!)- deserves a great birthday!

So, it's toodloo-pip-pip for now whilst we enjoy ourselves and I'll catch up with you again after my big day- my 3rd birthday party- on Sunday!
