Coloring Easter Eggs 2010

Coloring Easter Eggs 2009

OH MY! How things have changed in the last year! We decided to color Easter Eggs again this year, this time with a little more involvement from Tyler! Mike got us all these dinosaur shirts from his credit union....Tyler's is a children's size X-Small but still WAY too big so we decided it would be his "art shirt". So he and I got all dressed up in our "art clothes" and got ready to color the eggs. We figured we would dye the real eggs and let Tyler "color" the plastic ones. Turned out he had more fun just playing with the plastic eggs and watching us. For some unknown but unfortunate reason, the crayon we used didn't come through on the eggs so they didn't turn out as well as hoped. We still had a lot of fun though!



The final result

It's "Potty" Time!

We bought Tyler a potty chair for Easter (when he'd be closer to 18 months) but he is so curious about our toilet and how we use it. So we decided to give him his potty a little early for his 17-month birthday. We don't really plan to start potty training yet but figured it would be good for him to get the concept of sitting on it for now. He seemed a little intimidated at first but now seems to like his "toy"!

Looks fun when Hershey the Bear sits on it


It's fun for Tyler to sit on it too!
