Easter Eggs


Since Monday brought with it an inch of snow, I figured it was the perfect day to celebrate spring & decorate Easter Eggs. :) I had never in all my life (that I remember) decorated Easter Eggs, so it was a learning opportunity for both me and Elise. Lucky for us, it was pretty easy. I'm kind of impressed that the little kit that I bought for a whole dollar had everything we needed. Who knew?! We boiled eggs, dipped them as gently as we could considering our excitement, and even double-dipped a few to make some other colors. Then, we had to let them dry, which was perfect since it was also nap time. After her nap, we used some of the 10000 stickers that came in the kit. So fun!





Happy Easter!

say cheese!


I took Elise for some long over-due professional pictures last week. The ones on our living room wall are more than a year old! I was pretty nervous that she'd get all shy and wouldn't smile or show her true personality. Turns out, I had nOtHiNg to worry about.









The photographer was so wonderful, and super affordable. Check her out @ youbyjulie.com
