Happy Easter! We had a pretty low-key weekend. The cold weather kept us inside, but we did manage to have an Easter egg hunt inside the house this morning. Note for next year: do not put treats inside the eggs. Dom wanted to eat the contents of each egg as he found them, and this was just after breakfast. (By the way, we made pecan whole-wheat waffles--yum!) When we tried to get him to stop eating so he could finish looking for eggs, he responded with a tantrum. Later we dyed eggs, and Dom managed not to ruin his clothes by slinging around the little egg holder thing, but he did put a couple of stains on the counter. No big deal.
Dom and Daddy dyeing Easter eggs the Paas way. Note the hardwood floor in the background.
Noel with his Easter present, a bath book. I took about four pictures in a row, and he had the same expression on his face in each one.
Check out this link for some very scientific and hilarious studies of that classic Easter treat, the Marshmallow Peep. If you haven't seen this before, enjoy!

Why the look of terror on Noel's face? Is he about to be attacked by a deranged Easter bunny?
I have no idea! There were no deranged bunnies around here, but thanks for making me think of Monty Python's killer rabbit. :-)
I wasn't alluding to the Monty Python killer rabbits, but that's funny, too. I was thinking of Ralphie in a Christmas Story. Didn't his dad tell him he looked like a deranged Easter Bunny in his new jammies?
He did. Monty Python is just what popped into my mind first. Both are classic movie references, aren't they?
I forgot to ask...did Dominick spell Eastr all by himself?
He and Mike spelled it together. Look again--the second E is there. It's just hard to see because it's darker (from a different set of letters).
