Today my husband, Doc, and I had an Easter Egg Hunt for our two little ones, Baby Boy and Big Brother.  We separated them so each could have their own thing going on.  In Big Brother's case, this was an Egg hunt for eggs with M&M's and 1 egg with $1.00 in quarters (because that seems like more money to him than a dollar bill).  We hid his eggs in various places in our back yard.  Baby Boy's egg hunt was more like dropping all the eggs in an area the size of a 4 foot by 4 foot square.  He is not yet walking and he hasn't been outside much yet.  I figured his main interest would be in the dormant grass he was sitting in.  Here are the results of our egg hunt.    You know it was funny watching Big Brother as he would go from one end of the yard to the other end passing by countless eggs just to pick up one egg he had his eye on.  It was like he didn't even notice all of the other eggs he was passing--You know, he probably didn't see all the other eggs.   

Baby Boy got more out of shaking the eggs than anything else.  We put Cheese-It Crackers in his eggs (no candy for him yet).  He liked the crackers--and was happy eating them while we played baseball with Big Brother...

If you notice closely, in the third baseball picture you can see Baby Boy's feet right under the bat.  He sat there for about 15 minutes munching on crackers.  He never moved from that place.  Big Brother, on the other hand, tried as hard as he could to hit the ball that Doc threw for him--no luck today though.  He has gotten ahold of a couple of pitches before, but his mind was on eating his candy--not on hitting the ball.  I just love how he closes his eyes in the last picture--I am sure he will hit the ball that way :). 

Finally, we got both boys sitting outside next to each other to get those cutsie brother pictures--We actually had plans to get Easter pictures Thursday, but with Big Brother coming down with Strep Throat, we decided not to go get the picts.  Maybe later...In a month or two. 

Now, you might wonder what is going on here...Well in the second one Big Brother is showing Baby Boy his crackers in his eggs...In the third one Big Brother is reacting to Baby Boy dumping all his eggs out (he thought that was not good apparently)...and in the last two I was trying, unsuccessfully, to get both of them to look at the camera and smile at the same time.  The best I could do was the fourth pict---a smile from Big Brother and a scowl from Baby Boy.

Happy Easter!!!
