At the Hunt (candy already found)
A tearful 2 year old victory!
James being the wonderful daddy he is took Kaitlyn by himself to the annual University Athletic Departments easter egg hunt. Allowing me time to get a much needed cut and highlight. It was a little colder than most egg hunts, as you can see, but they had fun. With the hundreds of kids there she was able to find just a few eggs. Which was fine by me considering each egg was filled with chocolate.
I don't think James was prepared for the fight that our very persistant 2 year old would make over wanting candy. It probably didn't help that is was around 6 pm and she hadn't taken a nap. After an entire drive home of screaming and tears he finally caved and let her at it. So with no dinner in her tummy our extremely exhausted 2 year old loaded up on sugar and crashed.
So it wasn't a huge surprise to me that after sleeping for a few hours she awoke ready for dinner. Being the nice wife and mother that I am, I am on call for all the night awakening (which are more often than a 2 year old should have, she's never been a good sleeper). The poor girl was up from 2am to 6am. I was nice enough to turn on some Baby Einstein for her before going back to bed, but that only lasted 30 minutes. Let's just say it was a long night and we learned our lesson about candy!
