Easter 2013

Evelyn's first Easter was oh so fun, even though it rained and all festivities were forced indoors.   We started the day at Mass, and then had friends over for a luncheon with egg painting and an egg hunt for the kids.



I found the super stinking cute Easter outfits on consignment for $16... that's for both kids, including my sons shoes y'all.  Setting up the party was a snap, thanks to free printables from Amanda's Parties To Go.  Love her super cute stuff!  The kids had so much fun too!

The thing about winter is...

...it sucks the freaking life out of you!  Seriously folks, I feel like Phil


And I want to kill Phil

So I haven't been around the bloggersphere for a bit because I've lost all motivation to do anything as I sit here freezing my butt off and trying desperately to keep my very active 2 year old happy.  Baths are our saving grace!




This is bathtub paint, and it's so easy.  Spend $2 and have a world of color for at least 5 or 6 bath times.  Shaving cream and food coloring.  That's it folks and you can get both at the dollar store :-)

Then there's the polka dot bath.  Craft foam, when wet, will stick to the sides of the tub. Did you know you can buy a whole stack of it for $1.  Yup, the dollar store is a very close friend to this family.  And then why not add color to the water, just, ya know, because.


We also got Evelyn's 3 month pictures back, and they turned out ridiculously cute!  Behold, a mosaic!


I'm going to work on the ever intimidating baptism gown again this week, so I will most definitely be updating the My Mom Thinks I'm Crazy series soon :-)  Also a blog about Easter will make an appearance as we slowly get our groove back.
