Easter Weekend

Happy Easter! The following post has an enormous amount of pictures...so if you don't want to see some cuties, you probably don't want to continue!

We started our weekend by making Easter cookies on Friday. Erika like to help, but she really likes to just eat the cookie dough. I enjoy having a little helper, but now I don't get to eat as much cookie dough as I used to...between Erika and I nibbling, we would never get any baked cookies!

Laurel doesn't help yet, but she does sit in her seat and provide cuteness!

Little cookie dough monster!

On Saturday, we went to an Easter egg hunt at a friend's home. Of course, I forgot my camera, but the pictures would have been of Erika picking up her eggs, putting them in her bucket, Aunt Sarah running after Erika to make sure she didn't go hug the geese that were in the lake (the friend's house is right on the lake), Erika and her friend, Jake, chasing after the dog, etc. etc.

But, I did get a picture of the cutest bunny ever!

Finally, Easter Sunday! This is Erika waking up on Easter morning. Her hair is indeed that wild when she wakes up.

Laurel can't believe the Easter bunny came to her house!

Erika was so happy that there was candy in her eggs! She ate 6 jelly beans and 3 marshmallows before we took the eggs away and insisted she eat breakfast. Which was a Pop-tart. I guess nutrition goes by the wayside on holidays!

The Easter haul.

Maybe I could have just one more jellybean...

After the egg hunt, Erika got even more treats from the Easter bunny.

Please note: Peeps are gross and should not be consumed. Except Erika really like marshmallows so she got some Peeps.

Laurel wishes Daddy would be faster opening her new rattle from the Easter bunny.

I love presents!

How cute is that?

Ok, whenever I ask Erika to smile, this is the result I get.

Versus her not smiling face.

One more picture of Laurel for good measure (and to make up for the fact that we have about 400 pictures of baby Erika and maybe 20 of baby Laurel!)

Hoping I forgot that she doesn't get any candy until after lunch.

I like that we are a variation of the 3 primary colors.

Hope everyone had a wonderful Easter!
