Well today was a really
chaotic day. I always make the family a big breakfast on any
Holiday (I have been doing that since I lived at home with my parents) So I got up and made pancakes with whipped cream and berries. I was really excited
because pancakes are Kennedy's favorite meal, I cooked bacon for her too! When her and
JT got up I got them to the table and we sat down for what I thought would be an enjoyable breakfast. Kennedy wanted nothing to do with it. She wouldn't drink her juice (usually we fight because she wants more juice) She didn't even eat a bite of her pancake, and she screamed that she wanted to eat candy all through breakfast. I really just wanted to call off
Easter and go back to bed. But we trudged on
through her very cranky morning and her many outburst and we got dresses and when to church (late because of all the drama...and I had to do my makeup!) Church went okay. I was in the nursery and Kennedy had a few outburst there as well. One actually
included hitting me...she had time out for that one.
Fast forward about an hour to the
Easter egg hunt. We all
bundled up and headed out side (yes you are seeing her in a coat hunting eggs it was bitterly cold today)She really enjoyed it. She caught on right away and filled her basket so high she couldn't keep eggs in there! Her and Grace (her cousin) kept dropping eggs out and
re finding them.. that was way funny. After church we headed home (where we snapped this great picture of us! Thanks to
GG. Miraculously we all look great and Happy, even Kennedy!) Then it was off to the family get together, we ate and had another
Easter egg hunt. Kennedy got so much in all of her
Easter baskets that it looked like Christmas...crazy. If you need any candy just come by here, seriously (okay if you are a stalker,
thief, or murder don't come by) So anyway that is our
Easter....
Now back to your
regularly scheduled daily events.
Oh D looks as though your day didn't get of to a good start at all. Kennedy looks sweet in her jacket with her over flowing basket.
ReplyDeleteOh Dana, sounds like Kennedy was either tired or overwhelmed or too much candy....great pics though...our Easter was good but we too got WAY WAY WAY too much candy.....
ReplyDeleteoh my - one of those days huh -- well at least she had a fun hunt!! you got some great pictures!!
ReplyDeleteSilas has more candy now than he has had in his whole life put together! He has quite a few meltdowns of his own, and today is not any easier! So just take joy in knowing that you are not the only one. Even when its his favorite meal he doesn't want to eat it sometimes. He just wants his "choc-choc e-e bubby" aka chocolate easter bunny. :) Tis life with a preschooler!
