Easter

I am continuing to enjoy the new ways Trevor 'gets it' with holidays and events and all. He's more interested in and excited about decorations, activities, and anticipating things. So here's some pictures...


Dying eggs (in his 'hawaii man' shirt)





We went to the Easter egg hunt at the park--his sitting with the bunny is a big improvement from last year when he wouldn't go near the thing. This year he seemed to just want to avoid having a picture taken. He even hugged the bunny before he left and talked about how the bunny doesn't talk for the rest of the day (this was a big deal to him because when Trev said 'hi' and the bunny just waved)


This is what Ryan did during the egg hunt activities...


Dying eggs


Ready...



Set GO!

Trevor quickly caught on to the candy being inside the eggs. He ate the gummy thing in the first one, then started sifting through to find some chocolate. I'm pretty sure he gets that from me.

Ryan has been working very hard at turning over. He managed to do it once, but he was unclothed at the time. So I guess turning while having clothes on is tricky. On easter egg hunt day I tried to dress the boys in their most easter egg like shirts. Ryan almost blends in with the quilt in the background...



I made bunny cake for Trevor and John to decorate(coconut restricted to the ears). It turned out beautifully and since it was cake the two year old was pretty sure we had to sing happy birthday... Trevor first thought it should be happy birthday bunny, but then decided that it was better to sing happy birthday Trevor. Any time there's a birthday now or reference to a birthday he insists that it's his birthday first. So he'll be happy next month when it is indeed his day.




(The big smile of a boy who knows he's going to get to eat cake!)

In the "Set, GO!" picture, I wasn't sure if Trevor was walking next to John or Gilligan from Gilligan's Island.

That cake looks D-lish!
Did you use one of those silicone bunny cake molds so it's made of a bunch of cupcakes or did you use a sheet cake and cut it out in the shape of a bunny?

It's two circle pans--instead of stacking them on eachother you use one circle for the head and the other one you cut out ears. The left over makes a bow tie shape.
