An attempt at Easter pics...






After church (because I definitely didn't have time before!) I tried to get a couple of cute pictures of Bridger...you have to have those cute posed Easter pictures, right?! Anyway, let's just say that two year olds just aren't that into having their pictures taken. First of all, he has jelly beans in his hands in most of the pictures, as well as in his mouth...yah, nice, I know! Then I thought it would be funny to have a picture of him with his "pink bunny" and he

thought it would be cute to be "sleeping" while I took the picture. What can I say...gotta love it, which I really do love it!!! At least he looks cute in his new little church outfit!

Easter Fun...

Bridger and I went up to Kaysville on Saturday to enjoy some Easter activities with Josh's family. Josh had to work over the weekend...again! Hopefully next year he will actually have it off! Anyway, we started the day with a very intense Easter Egg hunt...it was fun, but people are a little crazy...do you really need to fill the entire basket when some kids only got a couple of eggs...but that's fine! Bridger was excited about his eggs and on the way out they were handing out little stuffed animals...Bridger got a pink bunny, yes pink and Josh just loves it! Anyway, you can tell in the picture that Bridger was having fun!

Here is Bridger after he found the eggs that the Easter Bunny hid around the house for him to find when he got up. He loved it, and was looking everywhere for eggs. He also had to find his Easter basket, which was hidden so that was fun!

Here's his Easter loot...he got a kite, sidewalk chalk, an outside ball (not pictured), a church outfit and some of his favorite treats. When I asked him a week or two ago what he wanted for Easter, he said a puppy, suckers...red, yellow and green ones, and chocolate. He got the suckers and chocolate...sorry, no puppy! Oh, notice the non-giraffe basket...this Easter basket was Josh's mom's basket when she was growing up, then it was Josh's basket, and now it's Bridger's....so that's kind of cool!
And here he is with his "red and yellow and green sucker". Today he said "Easter bunny not bring puppy. I want a puppy." So, maybe he needs a puppy one day...we'll have to see about that!

Easter egg dying...


"Ooh, look this one's green!"

Not really sure if he was kissing it or pretending to eat the egg!
He's very proud of his eggs!

Bridger and I dyed Easter eggs today...Josh had to work and it just wasn't working for any other time for him to do it with us, which was totally sad! Anyway, Bridger loved it! He watched me intently as I got everything ready and was so excited for us to start. When I told him we were ready, he clapped his hands and said, "Yea!!". I let him use the crayon on every egg, so some of them were a bit speckly looking, but he loved it. It was so funny watching him put the eggs in the colors. He would try to use the spoon but the eggs always ended up crashing to the bottom of the cup...I think half of them have little cracks in them! After the eggs were dry, I let Bridger put some stickers on them. During this time, he noticed that they made a cool sound when he hit them together, so we have even more eggs with little cracks in them! All in all, it went well and he did a great job! It's so fun seeing how excited he gets to do all of this!

The coolest park...

There's way more than what you can see in this pic...


My friend Jen and I took our boys to this really cool playground. It was all wood, and looked like a castle. It had so many things for the kids to do and it was huge. Bridger loved it! We took a picnic, but he could hardly eat anything, because he just kept staring at the playground. Finally, I let him go play and he was all over the place. Jen and I kept following him around everywhere. He probably could have stayed there all day because there was so much to do...we will definitely be going there again!

Bridger and his "animals"...

Look at that cheesey smile!!!
Bridger has what we like to call his "entourage", but he calls it his animals. He has to have them all on his bed at night. When Josh tucks him in, he likes to put the entourage all around Bridger as in the picture above. It gets a bit ridiculous sometimes...this night it consisted of: 2 dogs, 2 kitties, a bear, a giraffe, and a bunny (this has been his favorite one lately!). I try hiding some of the animals sometimes so that he'll maybe forget about them, but of course he doesn't forget and will go searching for them...gotta love your animals!!
