Hippity Hoppity

We had 2 weekends full of Easter "egg"stravaganza!  We kicked it off with time at Nana and Pawpaw's house the weekend before Easter!  Dylan loved hunting eggs in their giant backyard!  The big eggs were a hit, but so was getting to play with his cousin, Jackson!  Caleb enjoyed relaxing on the back porch, rolling around on his blanket, and playing with his toys!  I think the roly-poly is one of my favorite stages!  He's in one place one second another the next!  
Let's hunt!
Sweet brothers!
Cousins!
Caleb's Easter basket from Nana and Pawpaw!
Love this face!  So excited!
Oh the joys of trying to get family pictures :)
 Dylan and I tackled making Rice Krispie Easter Egg Hidden Treats.  They were quite messy and needed more marshmallows than the recipe called for, but he had fun!  He ate half of the marshmallows that were supposed to go in the mix, and dumped the "decoration" sprinkles everywhere, but that is cooking with a 2 year old!  It was fun and he enjoyed putting the M&M's inside the Easter eggs. :)  We also did some painting and some Easter bunny window clings.

Easter egg treats!
Eggs with M&M's inside :)
The Saturday before Easter, we went to a BIG egg hunt and petting zoo.  Both sets of grandparents were able to join us which was so fun for Dylan!  We took pictures with the Easter bunny, but I don't have them back yet to include in this post.   Dylan loved the donkey, and also chased the little goats around the pen.  "Come "ere" you!!!"
Would NOT pat the bunny :)
but LOVED feeding the donkey some hay!
Ready to hunt eggs!
Such a pro with his REAL club like Daddy!
Just walkin' along!
Too many choices!
All tuckered out!  
Easter morning is HECTIC, but we made it to church just a few minutes late!  The Easter bunny left Dylan and Caleb's baskets on the front porch this year!  Dylan received everything needed to catch bugs!  He was pretty fired up about it! Contents: Bug catching net, binoculars, small lantern, safari vest, clear box for the bugs to live, and a "bug" catching game.  Caleb's Easter basket was definitely age appropriate.  Contents: bibs, pacifiers, pacifier wipes, book,  and teether ring.  We went to church and then to my parents house for lunch and a small egg hunt.

From the Easter bunny! He left it on the door step!
Binoculars and everything needed to catch bugs!
Caleb's 1st Easter! His loot from the Easter bunny!
The teether was a hit!
