Wow has it really been almost a month since I’ve posted? Oh my it is hard to get back into the habit once you get out of it. But I want to blog more! :) We had a great Easter celebrating at Ben and 
Maralee’s house with a full houseful of family and friends. 
Amina loved finding Easter eggs. It was a bit windy and chilly, but at least it wasn’t pouring down rain this year! Every time Amina picked one up she’d try to open it and say “what’s in there?” (with the emphasis on there) – it was so cute :) Needless to say she didn’t find quite as many as the other kids who were running around filling up their baskets without stopping, but that’s okay, she didn’t need that much candy anyway! And she found enough hard boiled eggs so we got to have some yummy breakfasts the week after. Though once she learned to tap the egg on the counter (or the floor, the wall, the piano… anything near by) to crack it so she could peel it she tried to peel several eggs that afternoon. She ate 2 whole eggs and was still wanting the peel them! They ended up in the fridge pretty quickly ;)
We also enjoyed coloring eggs at home the day before. Amina likes to do things all by herself so it can be challenging to let her do messy things as I know she’ll be resistant to having any help… but in the end it’s worth it! She only broke a few eggs by dropping them into the cups of dye. And after trying to take a bite of one right out of the dye she learned that vinegar egg dye really doesn’t taste good! Ah the joys of being a toddler :)
And Thanks you to Grandma and Grandpa Rolley for the Easter gift of dresses, a stuffed rabbit and a cute necklace. Amina loved her gift :)
