Egg-citing

This is only our second attempt at Easter Egg decorating. I tend to decorate the eggs and then forget to dispose of them post-Easter until there is a smell that I cannot place. This year I was a little smarter, telling the kids that on Easter Sunday the Easter Bunny will come and trade their decorated eggs for treats! Now I don't have to worry about hurting their feelings by throwing the eggs away too soon, and my house wont smell because I waited too long to dispose of them!
These are the poses with our finished Easter egg creations. Brooklyn is showing Katy the ropes.
Brooklyn cute as can be.
Not sure why she chose the peace sign, but she did, completely unprompted by the parentals.
Katy dropped her egg, which caused the shell to crack, which caused her to put her finger in it, which caused the shell to come off, which then prompted her to bite it, which caused her to spit the shell out. Then mommy peeled it and she tried the hard boiled egg, which she also spit out, apparently not a fan of hard boiled eggs.
Isabella concentrated really hard on her sticker placement.
Nolan watched and ate. Happy as a clam.
Waiting for the eggs to dry was a really long time!
Daddy helped with the dying so we didn't have finger prints all over the house.
Look at all those colours!
Getting ready to decorate some eggs!!

Wow you are a cool mom. I so haven't done that with my kids yet. To much mess.
