It seems that the girls knew it was Easter as they escaped from their room and went straight for their Easter eggs. Stella led the pack, then Fiona and finally Daphne. Inside the Easter eggs my sister hid some wagon wheels - a yummy treat that the girls just started enjoying this week. They each found their one Easter egg, but I must confess they were brightly colored and in the middle of a blanket. Still a very successful first Easter in my book.
During the morning nap time, the Easter bunny also hid eggs for Brant, Rob and me. I can't even remember the last time I participated in an Easter egg hunt, but we had a blast. Brant and I were much slower at finding out eggs compared to Rob, but we think Rob had an advantage due to prior egg hunting in his home. Then the evil Easter bunny appeared and hid eggs for my sister. This evil Easter bunny hid them out of sight and throughout the house, it provided me a lot more entertainment than my sister who found it less amusing to rummage through her house. No word yet if all the eggs have been found - but at least they were void of candy.

Thankfully on our very last day in Seattle, Brant's friends Sean and Tamara were able to come over. All four of us went to high school together and their little girl (Piper) was born in late July, around my original due date. It is crazy to think back in high school we had no idea we would be having babies at the same time. Piper is adorable and waves hello/goodbye - I am SO jealous.
Another great day in Seattle, our final day. It was a wonderful trip, too short of course, but thankfully we were able to see (and introduce our girls to) so many friends and family.
It was so much fun to be a part of their first Easter and egg hunt. I look forward to hiding eggs for them for MANY years to come and perhaps one of the munchkins will give their mom (evil easter bunny) a run for her money :) ~Sis
