Easter egg hunts

Sophia enjoyed a few Easter egg hunts last weekend. It took her a while at each one to really get the hang of it and figure out that she was supposed to run around and pick up as many eggs as she was able. I had fun coaxing her toward the hard to spot ones.

The Easter Bunny made a special guest appearance at the Rec Center Egg Hunt last Friday and Sophia loved him so much. She ran up to him and gave him at least 20 hugs - like she is in this photo. She was shrieking and running around like she didn't know what to do with herself. I'm so glad she actually liked the Easter Bunny this year!

Every Friday from 10 - 11:30 we go to the Rec Center for Munchkin Play Time. They have an open play area filled with toys for the first 45 minutes and they they provide a snack, dance time, craft (and last week an Easter egg hunt too). Sophia loves going because her friend, Barbara, is there. Barbara is John's wife and you will see John kneeling down beside Aubrey in this set of photos. She's Sophia's grandma stand in on Fridays. Sophia seems to hitch herself to the "grandma" aged person no matter where we go. A bit of an old soul, I suppose. So, to sum up our friendship with Barbara and John: Sophia adores Barbara and John is nuts about Aubrey. As soon as we walk in he steals her from me. I love the break...she's a heavy little girl!
