The newest in Easter Egg fashion is apparently the "egg in the bag" methodology of colouring! Who knew?! A way to make Easter eggs all pretty-like without dyeing the childrens' hands a funky purple-brown by the end of the day! (Not to mention their immediate surroundings).
I'm here to keep y'all updated, you know.
Here, Miss.Q. holds the egg in all its pristine, pre-Easter glory. This would be the "before" shot for the hapless egg.


Easter Eggs.

Here, C. chucks an egg into a baggie filled with food colouring. His gentle massage technique quickly and effectively makes the egg look all pretty-like.



Miss. P.'s approach was more of a "shake and bake" technique, however, it produced equally effective results.



And - tada! We have eggs! And look! Almost no egg-dye on our lips or tongues or hands or hair or even on the dog! This is considerable progress when compared to the...umm...previous Easter...which we won't go into here....




Wait wait - AND WE ADDED GLITTER. Because when you live with three toddlers, you know, it's ALL ABOUT THE GLITTER.



Hope you all had a wonderful Easter!
Ours was colour-filled and absolutely lovely!

I Know, I suck.
I haven't posted pictures in weeks and weeks.

So, we got a rocking horse for our second birthday.... as P. demonstrates, above.....

And not to be outdone, Q. also showers the horse with affection...as demonstrated, below...


And just last week, we colored eggs, as C. will demonstrate in the next post. But here's a teaser for you - the eggs start out looking like this:
