Easter Celebration

We're not particularly religious, but there is something festive about Easter and the celebration of Spring. I think I mostly like it for the cute outfits for both Sophia & Theo.

Sophia developed a concept of the festivities last year and it's kept growing. She loves the concept of hunting eggs and even got to pick out hers (and Theo's) baskets this year. We may or may not have reminded her that the EB talks to Santa and so it was really important for her to be good!


We started off with some Egg coloring
(Sophia took the lead. Theo cheered her on...)






We went for brunch & an egg hunt in Newport. Last year, if you'll remember, Sophia was quite taken with the Easter bunny. This year, she talked about him for a solid 2 weeks beforehand. Sophia really enjoyed actually participating in the egg hunt this year. It's a funny thing - a holiday all about candy and then the general annoyance by parents that the kids are eating a ton of candy. Sophia definitely enjoyed snacking out on some hollow chocolate bunnies and jelly beans, but mysteriously, her Reese's chocolate peanut butter Easter egg disappeared! :)

Here are some fun shots of the day:

They're looking the same way at least...

Easter

It was Sophia's first mobile Easter, and while she didn't quite grasp the concept completely, we had a few special moments. We look at it as more of a Spring celebration rather than a religious holiday, but either way, nothing is cuter than dressing up an almost-18 month old in a dress and tights! And it was a gorgeous day in Newport to boot.
Enjoy...

Not sure about this fluffy thing with ears...(the bunny, not Dave!)

I think I can reach it...

Now what do I do with it?
Maybe if I shake it?
