Easter sneakery and a bit of adorable impatience.

I've been up to some Easter-themed sneakery, and I finally got everything packaged together this afternoon. I can't wait for the recipient to receive the basket!

Easter basket surprise!







Once the basket was packed and put aside, the table was clear once again. We had a playdate set with some friends for this afternoon, and Jack had been chattering away at my elbow as I prettied up the basket, asking questions about this, that, and everything in between. He was just so excited and wound up for his friend Ty to arrive! He hopped up on the table as I was taping up the last side of a box, and perched himself to look out the window in anticipation. It was just too cute, so I had to snap a few pics.

Once Rudi and Ty finally arrived, all the kids were straight out the door! Ann brought over fresh brownies, and the kids INHALED them, so I ended up making a batch of cinnamon rolls for everyone as well. The new neighbor kids finally came outside as well, as so the six of the big kids had a great time playing together (baby Gia stayed inside with us - she wasn't too crazy about all the wind this afternoon). It was such a nice time, and I can't wait for the weather to be consistently nice again - we miss playing outside with friends.

Cadbury eggs are God's greatest gift! ;) I will be dying this year not having any of their gooey, chocolatey goodness.

Jack is so cute!

I could send you some, but I'm betting your reason is more discipline, rather than lack of inventory?

I can't eat milk/chocolate (nursing and baby sensitive to milk :(

But thanks for the offer! You are you too sweet

I'm glad to hear it, for it *is* for an adult. :-)

For that afternoon, I used a can of cinnamon rolls I had in the fridge. You can't beat 10 minutes' time when you've got hungry kiddos outside playing. However, THIS is the bombdiggity of cinnamon rolls. Seriously. Mmmmmmm!

He has such wide, childlike (of course!) innocence. I love it about him.
