Alex’s First Easter Egg Hunt

Today was Alex's first Easter Egg Hunt at our favorite play place, Fit For Fun. I love this place because it has all kinds of big play equipment we don't have room for, but is only for children under the age of 5. Alex and I have started going there more often, especially since he has this new found love for climbing.

 

At the hunt, they arranged the kids by age group, so we were only up against ages 6 months - 23 months. Alex and I had lots of fun picking out his Easter basket yesterday, and he has had lots of practice opening plastic eggs (especially when Grandma Murff filled them with Goldfish), but I guess I didn't think to practice picking up eggs and putting them into the basket until last night. Needless to say, Alex was way more into playing on the playground equipment than picking up eggs. We ended up with ... 2! I didn't want to gather eggs for him while he played, so I just followed him around pointing out eggs and hoping he'd pick one up. We also attempting posing with the Easter Bunny. Alex was not impressed ... at least he wasn't as scared as he was of Santa Claus, but he definitely didn't like sitting on the Bunny's lap. Oh well, there will be several more Easters!

Oh, and here are a few pictures of Alex from last Easter. He sure has grown up a lot!
