Easter

Before Greg and I headed to bed on Saturday we hid all of the eggs throughout our living room, dining room and backyard. We then placed on of Layla's big stuffed bunnies beside her on her pillow, holding an Easter egg. Just after 10pm we heard Layla in her room making grumblings and such so we went in to see if she noticed the egg. She was sitting up but incoherent. It took her a few minutes to wake up but when she noticed the egg she was super excited and wanted to check out the rest of the house. We figured Baron wouldn't mind if Layla got a head start so off we went! She found her Easter basket and when she realized there wasn't one for Greg or I she said it must be because we're too bossy. Must be. She found some eggs indoors but was anxious to check if the bunny had left any in the backyard. She grabbed a little flashlight from the drawer and scurried out back. She gathered what she could with limited light and came back inside to check it all out. We allowed her to eat a couple eggs before putting her back to bed. I re-hid some of the eggs later in the night so she would still have lots to find.

By 6am we were at it all over again, this time with Baron in tow. As much as he wanted to sample those treats there was no way he was going to get his hands on chocolate, oh no, not yet.

For Easter dinner I made a turkey. I think Chester ate more than anyone. He deserves to get rewarded once in awhile.

Here is Chester waiting patiently for his dinner. Yes, that is a slobber string from his mouth to the table cloth. You get used to it.

Here is Layla chowing down on her drumstick, which was then given to the dog to polish off.
