Evey's Egg-Stravaganza!


My sweet girl was all dressed up and ready to hunt this morning! We went to Vineyard's EGG-stravaganza and had so much fun!




Our friends, Tom & Amber were there with their kids, Wes & Adele. They're almost a year older than Evey, but Wes LOVES her and Adele LOVES her "Uncle Topher!" It's been a while since we'd seen them, so Adele was glued to Christopher. She missed him so much, it was adorable!




Evey just started getting jealous yesterday. Christopher and I went to visit our friends in Covington who'd just had a baby and we were so excited to meet him! As soon as I got there, I couldn't wait to pick him up - only, Evey had something to say about it! I've never seen her like that. What's funny is that, typically she wants me, so it made sense. But, today, when Evey saw her Papa holding another girl, he was all she wanted. It was so cute seeing him with his girls!




 Adele spent most of the day on Christopher's shoulders.
That is... until he was sticky and juice covered that he had to bring her down!


The line to get food was so long, and Wes was so hungry! He was begging - LOL!!!


By the end of lunch, we were all covered in hot dog and bun, but we had three happy babies!


... and sleepy babies, as none had napped!



As we were waiting for the hunt to start, it was time for another snack. Adele was so good at sharing her cheerios (or oh-oh's as they're called at daycare) and she even helped Evey eat them!







The hunt itself was madness! Christopher described it accurately when he said it was like an ant swarm... Oh. My. Goodness.

We were in the 0-3 age group and there had to be at least 100 kids (and their parents) hunting! I wanted E to pick her own eggs up, and I knew she could, but she was shell-shocked. Finally, I helped a bit and we made it out with some twizzlers, laffy Taffy, Tootsie Rolls and one egg. That's right. One. I kept laughing because we didn't even get a coloured egg. It was a plain, white, plastic egg. Evey enjoyed the candy inside because it made a perfect sized rattle! Even though it was crazy and over in about 2.5 seconds, it was a blast hunting with my girl!










After the hunt, everything was so relaxed. The kiddos played with their loot. Wesley ate half a Twizzler and Adele shared popcorn with everyone.







Evey and Wesley love each other so much. They're so funny together. Evey really doesn't notice Adellyn so much, and vice versa, but Wesley and Evey are connected. Christopher and Tom decided soon after Evey was born that they'd get married one day... We'll see how that turns out - LOL.




E eating a Dum Dum...

That's incredibly safe...
Great parenting on my part! <wink, wink>

It was definitely a fun day! We were all so relaxed, and E was so worn out that she was passed out within minutes of getting in the car. I'm looking forward to a good night's sleep tonight! :)
