Easter Egg Hunt at Family Christian Center

We took the kids to the Egg Hunt at our church. Now, they had 60,000 eggs and so there was tons to go around. I didn't even get to take pictures because Jayden and Maya literally walked in, filled their baskets and came out in less than five minutes. It was crazy. I took the eggs and emptied them into the basket in the stroller. Here's Maya helping...
The line for the Easter Bunny was way too long and when I combined that with the fact that Jayden and Maya refuse to sit still for pictures, I decided it wouldn't be worth it. The real bunny was just as fun and no line. Here's Jayden checking him out.

Maya takes a turn to pet the bunny.
Afterwards, we let the kids play in the playground. Here's Jayden on what turned out to be his favorite!
Maya was a maniac on the swings. E was pushing her pretty hard and I was pretty nervous, butt she seemed to enjoy the whole thing!

After the park, we stopped by the Spanish Ministry table. They were selling pinchos (spanish style shish kabobs) and pina coladas. Delicious! I couldn't stop at one. I went back for a second pincho. Too bad they ran out of the pina colada. I would have had a second too!

Library Visits

With my schedule being wide open now, I have really thrown myself into my to-do list at home. And I must say that the days are flying by. It seems like there is so much to do. I am keeping so busy.

I started to bring the kids to the library. I used to miss Toddler Time because it was on Wednesday and Thursday, my work days. And we’re really enjoying it. The kids aren’t really sure how to act, ‘cause they’ve only been a few times and we don’t know the stories or songs yet, but it’s so much fun. I love picking out the books we’re going to read for the week and I especially love looking for Spanish board books. Plus, while I’m at it, I pick up an audio book for myself.

Here's Jayden dancing to the Hokey Pokey and If You're Happy and You Know It! He was just thrilled to wave his hanky around.
Esteban was very amused!

Maya was pretty happy too.
