This morning Jack and I went to Lisa's to dye Easter Eggs with Ethan, Lisa, Mary (Lisa's Mom), Katie, Baby Jack, Grace, Ashley, and Nathan. Everything was set up and ready to go, the weather was perfect, and away the Mom's went at dying the eggs.
Grace did the best at dying the eggs...wonder why?!?
We soon found out it wasn't as great of an idea for this age group as we thought.
Ethan was having a little too much fun with the eggs and dye so he stepped down and let Lisa finish them up.
I gave Nathan a plastic egg to play with and you know him...he was happy as can be while Ashley dyed their eggs.
Jack is clearly my child. He held the paper towels for us so they didn't blow away.
At the end I traded him his plastic egg for a real one so he could feel, smell, and put it in the dye. Once I saw those hands going for the bowl of dye next to his new booster chair...he joined Ethan away from the table.
Jack had troubles staying balanced on the lawn because of a slope and everywhere he fell turned into a red, bumpy rash since our grass here isn't soft and green yet.
Not wanting Jack to have the only dud Mom I finally let him get into the sandbox with the others. He wasn't very big on it and crawled right out.
But he did have fun leaning over and playing in the sand with the sand cups. Guess he is like me...no one likes sand up your pants.
After we finished outside we all headed in for a tasty lunch together.
It was a great time. Thanks Lisa!
