Finally, Anthony got interested and Mimi gathered him onto her lap to help dye eggs. Her face alone was worth the mess. And as usual, pictures will tell the story:
It all started innocently enough...Mimi helping Anthony carefully place the eggs in the dye.
And then Anthony decided to drop the eggs in from a height high enough to splash the dye out of the cup. Mimi tried to stop it, but she was unsuccessful in her efforts.
An egg has been dropped. And we were all sure it was going to break. It didn't.
And then I told Emilie she was going to have children one day, and that I was going to laugh, laugh, laugh at her trying to keep everything nice and neat.
And she told me I could blog that picture over another one that I wanted to put up. I thought the other one was a little more, um, tame, but she felt this was the lesser evil of the two. Ain't she lovely? :) Love you, Mimi. I'm so glad you were there last night to have fun dying eggs with Anthony!
The antibiotic seems to be doing it's job. Anthony's wound is healing nicely with the help of Bacitracin (medicated Neosporin, basically). As usual, he's our crazy little two-year old dude...running from one thing to the next, never letting anything slow him down!
Love, Laurie
Coming up in Anthony-land:
Saturday: an Easter egg hunt!
Sunday: to Mommy's great-uncle's house for a family reunion
Monday: back to daycare!

'Neat' and 'kids' are definitely two words that do not go together! I'm fighting a neverending battle.
Looks like a lot of fun. We are going to color eggs sometime this week. It will be interesting to see how your little guy does. This will be his first year doing it. I am sure it will be very very messy :-)
I see what fun I'm in for this week trying with mia. :) Looks like ya'll had a blast!! Love you and miss you!
