A journey through the wild ride of being a first time mother

You can read every book on the shelf about being a parent and what to expect with your new baby, but the only true preparation is experiencing it first hand.

Easter Weekend

This Easter weekend we started out by dying some eggs with kool-aid, I got the idea from Pinterest. It took a little longer then regular food coloring and vinegar does, but it still worked. She really liked stirring them and touching them, her fingers were stained purple by the time we were done. She even had some spots and drips on her legs from when she was taking the fork out of the bowls.
When we were finished coloring eggs and i went to take them off the counter she cried cause she wanted to keep playing with it. It was really fun this year so i can only imagine next will be even better and a lot more fun.
On Saturday the day of Jason's football game we went up to Missoula to watch and participate in the Easter egg hunt they were hosting at the field. Jason's mom Marci was there as was her BF Scott who we call Grandpa Scott, and Great Grandpa Gabe was there. I am sure glad they brought their camera cause i sure didn't get a chance to take any pictures. Kendall wasn't quite sure what to do with the eggs, she would just hold them and it ended up being Marci and myself picking up most of the eggs and putting them in her basket.
They had the field roped off into sections for age groups. There was so many people there and the only section parents where allowed was the 0-3, it really surprised me when i saw parents running through this section literally scooping eggs into grocery bags so their kids could have more. It seemed a little childish to me when you are supposed to be helping your children to learn about the holiday.
Overall, Kendall had a really good time and she managed to stay awake for the whole game and all she wanted to do was walk around and she pretty much did for the duration of the game. The regular season is only 8 games long and depending on how they do depicts how the playoffs will go for them. Hopefully they win a lot cause that means they don't have to travel anywhere and all the games will be in town.
Tomorrow i will tell a story about how i wasted my time taking Kendall to the doctor this morning for her eyes. Have a happy Monday
