dying easter eggs





do you just die over her little eyebrows?? margo is known for her cheeks and her furrowed eyebrows so i loooooovvvveee that we got the brows in a picture!!












easter kind of crept up on me this year, and although i didn't wait until the day before to snag all the easter things i did wait longer than planned. but i got some good stuff!! i'm not a fan of loading my girls easter baskets with sugar, so this year i went a different route and i think they will be happy! it's hard teaching your littles why we celebrate easter when all they think about is what is in their basket! but i am hoping our girls will grasp on to something in their little minds this year.

growing up, dying eggs was an easter tradition and always something i looked forward to! and really, it can be so fun and you can get creative. but if i'm being honest-- i wasn't planning on doing it with my girls this year! unfortunately, one of my girls found an easter egg coloring kit i had hidden from last year, and then found myself making a promise i knew i couldn't break! i was probably a little over board crazy, but knowing my girls there would have been a gigantic mess if it wasn't under control! we still had fun, and the girls LOVED watching the eggs and checking on them every two seconds to see if we could take them out yet! we let them dry and then they added some fun stickers to their eggs.

i couldn't get over the fact that Scotti legitimately thought there was chocolate inside her hard boiled eggs. once her stickers were on, she instantly started cracking and pealing it so she could get to the good stuff. poor girl was really disappointed  when all she found was an egg. i loved that when olive finished, her eggs became her kids and wouldn't stop calling them her "sweethearts and sons!" and the idea of eating them later was traumatizing!

i love these little traditions with our girls, and i love watching them have fun and creating memories together! and i'm excited to have margo with us this easter!! i'm curious what kinds of easter traditions you have with your kids!?
