Happy Easter!!

We were visited by the Easter Bunny!!
Dylan got a Spiderman drawing pad, an I-Spy game (very cool) and a plain chocolate bunny which he ate for breakfast.
Elizabeth got a Strawberry "Corncakes" drawing pad and a pink chocolate bunny, which she only ate the face of for her breakfast.
A few days ago she got her other present which was a Snoopy Sno-Cone Maker! She also got a new bandana instead of Easter grass. I had to use a new prefold diaper for Dylan's basket (oops!) at least it was clean. I HATE Easter grass. Especially with kids AND cats. That stuff wrecks vacuums. In fact, I'm fairly certain that the vacuum manufacturers have a hand in the marketing of Easter grass. But I digress...

Anyway, yesterday Elizabeth and I colored eggs and Dylan tried to thwart us. We used a vinegary solution which resulted in very gorgeous egg colors.

Then we made Snoopy Sno-Cones, which frankly is a lot more work than I recall from MY childhood. We might have to splurge on the electric version for the summer.

Later on today we'll have an Easter egg hunt in our yard and then we'll eat ham.
Yay Easter!

In our ongoing quest to bring you new diseases...Bob got himself some bacterial pneumonia. Yay!
He went in to the urgent care yesterday because he was very annoying sick.
The doctor took a chest x-ray, gave him antibiotics and sent him home. He's much less annoying feeling much better today. Yay!

Great Easter pics, looks like the kids are feeling better and got to have a fun Easter! Hope Bob gets better, soon, too!

Bob is 100 percent better! His antibiotics are FIERCE!
Dylan is eh, 80 percent better. He got a sunburn on his legs that is hurting him, and he still has a cough, but the pinkeye is gone! We gave him a mohawk yesterday afternoon and it's made him INSANE...That is a baaaad haircut.
Elizabeth is totally feeling fine...
Guess who is the sick one today?? :(
