Busy Bee

Jackson has been such a busy little bee today. His first activity was to dye 12 easter eggs for the big hunt tomorrow. He was such a big help with this...although we did have to stay on our toes the entire time!

First he dropped the little dye tablets into the vinegar. He watched them until they stopped fizzing, because then it was time to add the water and get started.

Then he "helped" put the eggs into the different cups. I'm still amazed that eggs weren't just breaking all over the counter!

He told us that the green eggs were his favorite. I agree, they did look really good:)

After we colored the eggs, it was time to make the Bunny Cake! Jackson was a big help with putting on all the jelly beans. We can't wait to taste the cake tomorrow. Yum yum yum.

After all that work a little dude gets tired out and a good, long nap is in order. Two and a half hours later, Jackson woke up and was ready to get right back to work. Seriously, he was begging me to go help his daddy outside with the yard. He started out by raking the yard...

and then moved on to helping dad spread the mulch. He's been so interested in this mulch ever since their trip to Lowe's this morning to buy it. Wonder what else he's got planned for tonight? You can bet it will involve lots of activity! The kid only has two buttons: Full Speed and Asleep. We love it and we love him.

Happy Easter! Have a great day tomorrow.
