a meeting with the easter bunny

i had a meeting with the easter bunny today. i think my son will be very happy with all his goodies: books, fridge magnets (he's nuts for fridge magnets these days!), an elmo easter basket, plastic toy animals, yummy baby snacks and some cool thomas the train lunchbox containers.

last easter he was about 3 months old so he wasn't able to participate in any egg hunting. he's 15 months now and walking, climbing and running us ragged. i don't think he'll understand the concept of getting the most eggs but he's mobile enough to find a few. and with the 3 (at least) egg hunts that we're scheduled to go to, he'll have lots of opportunities to practice.

hoppy hunting!!

our little music man

(one of the drafts i wrote a couple of months ago.)

we're so amused and amazed with anything that our son does but his musical talent is becoming more apparent. he loves to drum, and i swear he can keep time. last month he started mimicking short phrases that we would sing to him and now we catch him singing to himself even when there's no music playing.

mommy and daddy have been in choirs and bands since they were kids. so, rock on son...rock on! no pressure but you might not have a choice...i think it's in your genes :)

sick...schmick!

he's had a fever as high as 102 in the past couple of days which we're keeping under control at present with some infant ibuprofen. but you wouldn't guess it with all the playing, marching, raspberry blowing, laughing and smiling going on. ain't nothin' gonna break his stride!

a happy distraction

     when i started this blog, my mind was spinning with ideas. i thought i'd be writing every day, twenty times a day. who was i kidding? not for a lack of material though...everything my son does is either amusing or amazing. but i've realized that there just isn't enough hours in the day for me to translate all that amusing amazingness into blog entries. i have a dozen drafts just waiting to be completed and thousand more in my head. as a teacher, i have the next week off. i hope to post some entries but if i don't get around to it it's because i'm distracted by the most adorable little boy i've ever known.
