Easter

We had a great Easter. Once again this year the rainy weather took a break and we had absolutely weather for Easter weekend. On Saturday we went with Brett's parents for the annual Easter egg hunt. Henry loves it and it is pretty entertaining to watch all the kids scramble for the eggs in hopes of finding a golden egg.

On Easter morning Henry was happy to discover that the big bunny had indeed stopped by our house and hidden eggs all over the yard (three dozen of them to be exact!) and left him an Easter basket. The night before Henry was adamant that he did not want the Easter bunny to come into our house so we left his basket outside. Luckily I had to get up early to "let Wilbur out" and brought the basket inside. ;) In his basket Henry found lots of superhero items which led to him asking "how did the Easter bunny know I like superheros???" We then had brunch with my family downtown and enjoyed a relaxing rest of the day.

Henry Turns 4!






By the end of tomorrow, Henry will have been celebrating his 4th birthday for a full week. He keeps asking me if it's still his birthday...and it's no wonder since we started celebrating on his actual birthday (last Tuesday), had his family party on Wednesday, his friends party Sunday and tomorrow will be celebrating at his school. Henry and I went to the beach with the our friends Molly, Anna and Connor last week and were there on Tuesday morning for Henry's birthday. We went to Benihana that night for dinner - Henry's choice...it's one of his favorite restaurants (if not his favorite), he loves to play teppanyaki chef at home.












The next night we had everyone over for his family party. He loved, loved, loved all the wonderful presents he got and his Batman cake (courtesy of Gigi). Then on Sunday we had his friend party at the Little Gym which was absolutely fabulous. The kids all seemed to have a wonderful time and it was so fun to watch them all enjoying themselves so much. The theme was superheros again, but this time with Spiderman cupcakes. Tomorrow I am the parent helper in his classroom and since it's his birthday they'll have a special little celebration for him....but the thing he is most looking forward to is that he gets to be the line leader tomorrow. :)
