In what is becoming a yearly tradition, we joined the Tan family for their annual Easter Egg Hunt on Good Friday. It was a wee bit early to be enjoying Easter festivities on Good Friday but I think it also reminds us that Christ’s sacrifice on the cross came to a glorious and victorious end and that is something to celebrate.
Unlike last year, Noey was actually able to actively participate in the hunt, which was a great deal of fun for him and us. (Maybe more for us!)
After all that hard work, we peeled open one of the chocolate eggs to let Noey have a bite of what would have been his very first chocolate (as opposed to bits of chocolate in a bun, for example, which he has had already). And surprisingly, after taking a bite, he didn’t want any more! I was quite relieved. Looks like I can hold him off chocs for a while yet.
It was good fun for a Friday morning.

Kate had her first taste of chocolate on Easter Sunday! <br /><br />After her praisebabies nursery teacher said 'why not?' to me. 😉

This looks so fun! I don't think Bean will be able to understand what's going on and join in the game like Noey did. He'll just probably run around and step on the eggs and sweets. Lol.
BeanBean says
lyndis :: so did she like it?<br /><br />michelle :: maybe we can orgainse one next year! i'll go think about it. just realised that except for the babes in arms, noey was the youngest one there. he wasn't that enthusiastic and wanted to run off occasionally as well, and yes, step on the eggs! i think this would be a lot more fun once they are at the age where they appreciate chocolate!

This looks so fun!
Lyndis says
yup she ate half of a small easter bunny. I didn't let her eat any more. heh. and she didn't protest, so I suppose she wasn't too taken haha!
Daphne says
ooh so fun! and i like your bright happy yellow skirt babe!
BeanBean says
lilsnooze :: Ok, I'm definitely thinking we should organise one next year! Maybe with some real eggs so everyone doesn't OD on chocs. <br /><br />lyndis :: hee, good, then it's out of sight, out of mind :)<br /><br />daphne :: it's orange! it was one of those things i bought randomly then wondered when on earth i'd wear it. but i have gotten some good use oout of it
Natchin says
Looks really fun! Can Noah actually run?
BeanBean says
Natchin :: Yes, he can run, though not very fast YET, thankfully. It was fun, more for me I suspect than noey!
