Egg Hunt, Ant Bites and Cousins


Sean woke up in the middle of the night crying, "mommy, mommy", so I cuddled with him for a good bit before he fell asleep, again. In the morning, I got to sleep in (thank you, Kenny!) to catch up on some sleep. Kenny went to work and Sean and I got ready for an Easter egg hunt at his school.

The school divided the "hunt areas" according to age which was a brilliant idea! Sean started picking up his eggs right away, but then, discovered an egg that had been opened and had jelly beans in it. Immediately, he stopped hunting for eggs and ate those jelly beans! He's loves candy just like his mommy! He looked for some more eggs with coaxing from me, but then went back to the jelly beans. (Note to self..buy some jelly beans, as this could be a great bribery tool for eating dinner, sharing, etc).

After the egg hunt, Sean was tired, so he napped and I uploaded a bunch of pictures. Then, I decided to cut the front yard. Sean loved this! He helped me push the mower and got out his toy mower and mowed the lawn with me. During this, I stepped in an "ant pilt", as Sean would say and I did very well not to let any bad words slip out!

After cooling down, we got in the car to do one of our favorite Sunday afternoon things..take a drive. We drove by Nanny's house and much to Sean's delight, his cousins, Abby and Ashley and Uncle Joey were outside playing. Sean rode Abby's scooter and had a great time. We stayed for dinner and then headed back out to play some more. There was a small meltdown, because he didn't want to leave, but we made it back to the car. On the way home, Sean said,"mommy, the sun's going down". I told him, yes it was and how smart he was. We enjoyed a nice ride home trying to find the sun "hiding b'ind those trees"! He's so talkative and cute!
