How many egg hunts can one child participate in during the Easter season? It's been all about eggs around here lately.
First there was the school egg hunt where Ira showed the other Dragonflies how to search and destroy. Fortunately, Ira's teacher divided the eggs up evenly between the kids after the hunt, or Ira would've come home with them all.
Seriously, look at all those eggs. I think that's just one load. It's nice to know that he's good at something.
Of course we dyed Easter eggs at home. Ira was concerned about why we would kill eggs until we explained the difference between die and dye. Homophones are confusing.
You wouldn't expect a good vegetarian family like ours to spend so much time at the Bass Pro Shop but it's really one of Ira's favorite places. And they do free Santa and Easter Bunny photos. It's become a family tradition.
Egg hunt number two brought us to an assisted living facility in Bellevue where Kirsten's friend Heather works. Ira had a very long conversation with this Easter Bunny.
Ira became good friends with the bunny.
Kirsten and Ira sat down and showed the Easter Bunny all the candy Ira found.
Ira's first experience with a Now and Later. He had to examine it closely before he felt comfortable eating it.
Saturday night Ira painted a card for the Easter Bunny.
And of course he painted himself, too.
Easter morning. The Easter Bunny brought Ira quite a few cool things. Like these eggs filled with silly bands. Not totally related, but Ira calls rubber bands "circle silly bands."
A chocolate bunny.
