The "hidden" eggs

Look at my treasures!

Some other moms and I were talking one day about an Easter egg hunt for our little babies. We talked about the hunt at the zoo, but it runs on a reservation basis and it was full, and we talked about the neighborhood hunt in the park but heard that it was total chaos and not good for our new little walkers, so we decided to have one of our own. About seven babies and their parents and some grandparents came to our house and we had a wonderful party. Everyone brought food and treats, we made bunny ears using the childrens' footprints and we had and easter egg hunt in the yard. Noah and Sam (the big brother of one of the babies) got to "hide" the eggs and they did a perfect job of it. It made me so happy to watch all the tiny little legs toddling and crawling around the yard getting eggs. And when they had found enough, they each sat in the grass with their little pile of eggs and goodies and soaked up some sun. It was much better than being part of big crowd - I'm so glad that we thought of it!
